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 contains mathematical equations and descriptions of processes, but no explicitly labeled 'Pseudocode' or 'Algorithm' blocks. |
| Open Source Code | Yes | The code and the generated data and models can be found at: https://github.com/fdraxler/whiten-nf |
| Open Datasets | Yes | In an experiment, we fit a set of Glow [6] coupling flows of increasing depths to the EMNIST digit dataset [38] using maximum likelihood loss and measure the capability of each flow in decreasing G and S (Details in Appendix A.1). |
| Dataset Splits | No | The paper mentions training and testing on splits of the dataset but does not explicitly specify a validation split or its size/usage. |
| Hardware Specification | Yes | All experiments were run on a single NVIDIA RTX 3090 GPU. |
| Software Dependencies | Yes | The code is written in Python 3.9 using PyTorch 1.10. |
| Experiment Setup | Yes | The model is trained for 200 epochs using the Adam optimizer [45] with a learning rate of 0.0001, a batch size of 512, and an L2 penalty of 10^-5. We use a single affine coupling layer per block followed by a fixed permutation in the rotation layer. |
