Notice: This website is continuously updated as new conference proceedings and journal volumes are published. Consequently, the figures presented here may differ from those reported in our publications.


A brief overview of our methodology is provided on the Methods page, along with references to publications documenting our approach and links to the code and data used in each study.


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.

Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental Our experiments confirm our analysis, and also demonstrate that the emerged languages largely improve the generalizing power of the neural agent communication.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1: The NIL algorithm.
Open Source Code Yes The code is available at https://github.com/Joshua-Ren/Neural_Iterated_Learning.
Open Datasets No The paper describes generating its own object space based on attributes (Na) and values (Nv), rather than using a publicly available dataset.
Dataset Splits Yes We measure this ability by looking at their validation game performance: we restrict the training examples to a limited numbers of objects (i.e., the training set), and look at how good are the agents at playing the game on the others (i.e., the validation set)." and "Valid set size 0 8 16 32
Hardware Specification No The paper does not provide specific hardware details such as GPU/CPU models, processor types, or memory amounts used for experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper does not provide specific software dependencies with version numbers (e.g., Python, PyTorch, CUDA versions).
Experiment Setup Yes Unless specifically stated, the experiments mentioned in this paper use the hyper-parameters given in Table 3.
