Pseudocode No The paper does not contain structured pseudocode or algorithm blocks.
Open Source Code Yes The source code and appendix of this work can be found at https://bit.ly/38h H8t8.
Open Datasets Yes We evaluate our work on six road networks with real-world traffic flows, which are all publicly available.4 Figure 3 presents a top view of these road networks...
Dataset Splits No The paper does not explicitly provide training/validation/test dataset splits with specific percentages or counts. It mentions creating nine traffic flows by shifting initial appearance times, but this is not a train/validation/test split.
Hardware Specification Yes This enables Tiny Light to work on a standalone microcontroller with merely 2KB RAM and 32KB ROM... As a demonstrative prototype of our model s deployment, we implement Tiny Light on a standalone ATmega328P an MCU with merely 2KB RAM and 32KB ROM. This MCU is readily available on the market and costs less than $5, making our work applicable in scenarios with low budgets.
Software Dependencies No The paper states it avoids dependencies on certain third-party libraries (Tensor Flow Lite, Py Torch) but does not list specific version numbers for the software components it does use for its experiments or development, other than mentioning 'City Flow' without a version.
Experiment Setup No The paper states that "Appendix B provides more detailed settings for training." While it mentions the optimization method (dual gradient descent) and reward function definition, it does not provide concrete hyperparameter values or comprehensive training configurations in the main text.
