Another class, P, is a subset of NP, and includes all decision problems that can be solved by a (deterministic) Turing machine in polynomial time. 2 adj For a given particular input, always producing the same output through the same sequence of states. On the other hand, if the genetic algorithm has many advantages, their computation cost is higher as compared with deterministic algorithms. 3 adj an inevitable consequence of antecedent sufficient causes 4 adj Of, or relating to determinism.
