Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental Finally, we apply our rules to randomly generated data.In Section 5 we study the performance of elimination-based rules on randomly generated data. Now we show to which extent sequential elimination rules provide a good Borda score approximation in practice. To this end we have carried out two sets of experiments.

Pseudocode No The paper defines the deterministic sequential elimination rule (SER) Fπ recursively with numbered steps but does not present it in a formally labeled pseudocode or algorithm block.
Open Source Code No No explicit mention or link to open-source code for the described methodology.
Open Datasets Yes Finally, we tested our approach on the real Sushi dataset from Pref Lib [Mattei and Walsh, 2013].
Dataset Splits No The paper mentions generating 10000 profiles and sampling from the Sushi dataset but does not provide specific training, validation, or test splits or their proportions.
Hardware Specification No No specific hardware details (e.g., GPU/CPU models, memory, or cloud resources) used for running experiments are mentioned in the paper.
Software Dependencies No No specific software dependencies or their version numbers are mentioned in the paper.
Experiment Setup Yes In the first experiment, the number of voters n varies from 2 to 10 and the number of candidates is 2n+1 1. ... For each (n, m) and each culture, we focused on three different sequences: (i) geometric..., (ii) round-robin..., and (iii) random (single) dictator.... We have computed for each one the mean value of the differential ratio... over a sample of 10000 profiles generated for each (n, m) and culture.
