Notice: The reproducibility variables underlying each score are classified using an automated LLM-based pipeline, validated against a manually labeled dataset. LLM-based classification introduces uncertainty and potential bias; scores should be interpreted as estimates. Full accuracy metrics and methodology are described in Coakley et alK. L. Coakley, T. Snelleman, H. Hoos, and O. E. Gundersen, "The embrace of open science: An analysis of a decade of AI research and 56 800 conference papers," Under Review, 2026..

| Pseudocode | No | The paper does not contain any pseudocode or clearly labeled algorithm blocks. |
| Open Source Code | No | The paper does not provide any explicit statements about releasing source code or links to a code repository for the described methodology. |
| Open Datasets | Yes | We experiment with a set of popular image classification tasks with the CIFAR-100 [19], SVHN [20], and Image Net [21] datasets. We also evaluate language modeling tasks with Penn Tree Bank(PTB) dataset [24]. |
| Dataset Splits | No | For the image classification experiments, we report training loss and validation top-1 error. For the language modeling models, we report training loss and validation perplexity. While these datasets have standard splits, the paper doesn't explicitly state what splits were used for reproducibility. |
| Hardware Specification | Yes | We synthesize the accelerator on a Stratix V 5SGSD5 FPGA at a clock rate of 200MHz. |
| Software Dependencies | No | The paper mentions modifying Py Torch's layers but does not specify the version number of Py Torch or any other software dependencies with their versions. |
| Experiment Setup | No | The paper states, 'We trained all models using the same hyperparameters reported in their respective original papers,' which means the specific hyperparameter values are not directly provided within this paper. |
