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; scores should be interpreted as estimates. Full accuracy metrics and methodology are described in [1]

Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental We study this fundamental problem from a theoretical point of view and present positive and negative complexity results. Furthermore, we complement our theoretical findings with experiments on real-world and synthetic data.

Pseudocode No The paper describes algorithms in prose and uses a figure for illustration (Figure 1), but it does not contain a formally labeled 'Pseudocode' or 'Algorithm' block with structured steps.
Open Source Code No The paper does not provide any explicit statement about releasing source code or a link to a code repository for the methodology described.
Open Datasets Yes The set of constraints were defined using population data for the 48 countries from en.wikipedia.org and cost of living index data from numbeo.com.
Dataset Splits No The paper does not specify training, validation, or test dataset splits for its experiments. The research focuses on finding an optimal scoring rule rather than training a machine learning model with traditional data splits.
Hardware Specification No The paper does not describe the specific hardware used to run its experiments (e.g., CPU, GPU models, or cloud resources).
Software Dependencies No The paper does not provide specific version numbers for any software components, libraries, or solvers used in the experiments.
Experiment Setup Yes For synthetic profiles with BT and PL agents, the simulation was repeated 500 times; the values shown here are averages... This rather disappointing outcome, together with the fact that d is small, forced us to consider scoring vectors with discretized scores (e.g., which are multiples of 0.05 or 0.02) in order to come up with approximations of the optimal scoring rule.
