deterministic selection
[/dɪˌtɜːrmɪˈnɪstɪk sɪˈlɛkʃən/]
nounfemininepl: seleções determinísticas
seleção determinística
1. A selection process in computing, algorithms, or evolutionary biology where outcomes are completely determined by initial conditions and rules, with no randomness involved
The deterministic selection algorithm always chooses the same candidate when given identical input parameters.
O algoritmo de seleção determinística sempre escolhe o mesmo candidato quando recebe parâmetros de entrada idênticos.
2. In evolutionary algorithms and genetic programming, a selection mechanism that uses fixed criteria rather than probabilistic methods to choose individuals for reproduction
Deterministic selection ensures that the fittest individuals are always selected without random variation.
A seleção determinística garante que os indivíduos mais aptos sejam sempre selecionados sem variação aleatória.
3. A process where the outcome is entirely predictable based on the input conditions and operating rules
Unlike stochastic methods, deterministic selection produces reproducible results every time.
Diferentemente dos métodos estocásticos, a seleção determinística produz resultados reproduzíveis sempre.
This is primarily technical terminology used in computer science, artificial intelligence, and evolutionary biology. The term is consistent across Brazil, Portugal, and other Portuguese-speaking countries in academic and professional contexts. It contrasts with probabilistic or random approaches, which are increasingly common in modern computational methods. The concept emphasizes predictability and reproducibility, values highly regarded in scientific and engineering disciplines.
