As a novice research-assistant I really appreciate the fact they included a Software implementation and hardware section in the appendix.
They even wrote "We will make the code to reproduce these results publicly available". That should be the norm. Kudos.
- choxi 10y ago> We will make the code to reproduce these results publicly available I'm excited about this trend, it makes it easier for everyday software engineers to tinker around with cutting edge tools. I think of innovation as a pipeline starting from scientific insights, to engineering advances, to improvements in the consumer experience. If research communities continue to borrow more ideas from open source culture, it could really improve the speed of that pipeline.
- nojvek 10y agoImagine every CS paper coming out with executable code. That would definitely put humanity in an accelerated path to fictional future.
- oarfish 10y agoWhenever I read something like "We will make the code to reproduce these results publicly available", instead of making be happy, it makes me sad that so many people never follow through. That's a huge disappointment if the paper's ideas really would've helped you. Yes it must be the norm, but if the code isn't available at peer review time, chances are nonzero it's never going to be.
- robintibor 10y agoOur code is already available in very chaotic, not well-documented form at https://github.com/robintibor/braindecode/ https://github.com/robintibor/braindecode/. I am working on producing a clean version of this :)
- robintibor 10y agoThanks. If you have any further questions about the paper, feel free to ask me.
