| Dec 5, 2023 at 16:58 | comment | added | a3nm | Might be an unpopular opinion, but if the authors of a paper don't give you what you need to reproduce their results, I would encourage you to consider to briefly and factually point it out in follow-up work, when discussing the paper in question, if this makes it more difficult to compare to them. That's of course a bit embarrassing to say, but helps the rest of your community to know about the situation. | |
