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]

|---|---|---|
| Research Type | Theoretical | We obtain non-asymptotic convergence guarantees for this problem, under simple assumptions. This provides rigorous guarantees that methods similar to those used in practice converge on realistic inference problems. |
