  2. Nondeterministic algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondeterministic_algorithm

    Nondeterministic algorithm. In computer science and computer programming, a nondeterministic algorithm is an algorithm that, even for the same input, can exhibit different behaviors on different runs, as opposed to a deterministic algorithm. Different models of computation give rise to different reasons that an algorithm may be non ...

  3. NP (complexity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NP_(complexity)

    NP is the set of decision problems for which the problem instances, where the answer is "yes", have proofs verifiable in polynomial time by a deterministic Turing machine, or alternatively the set of problems that can be solved in polynomial time by a nondeterministic Turing machine. [2][Note 1] NP is the set of decision problems solvable in ...

  4. Hardware random number generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_random_number...

    A USB-pluggable hardware true random number generator. In computing, a hardware random number generator (HRNG), true random number generator (TRNG), non-deterministic random bit generator (NRBG), [1] or physical random number generator [2] [3] is a device that generates random numbers from a physical process capable of producing entropy (in other words, the device always has access to a ...

  5. Hierarchical network model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_network_model

    The hierarchical network model is part of the scale-free model family sharing their main property of having proportionally more hubs among the nodes than by random generation; however, it significantly differs from the other similar models (Barabási–Albert, Watts–Strogatz) in the distribution of the nodes' clustering coefficients: as other models would predict a constant clustering ...

  6. Nondeterministic Turing machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondeterministic_Turing...

    e. In theoretical computer science, a nondeterministic Turing machine (NTM) is a theoretical model of computation whose governing rules specify more than one possible action when in some given situations. That is, an NTM's next state is not completely determined by its action and the current symbol it sees, unlike a deterministic Turing machine.

  7. Nondeterministic programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondeterministic_programming

    A nondeterministic programming language is a language which can specify, at certain points in the program (called "choice points"), various alternatives for program flow. ...

  8. Nondeterministic finite automaton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondeterministic_finite...

    The state diagram for M. It is not deterministic since in state p reading a 1 can lead to p or to q. All possible runs of M on input string "10" All possible runs of M on input string "1011". Arc label: input symbol, node label: state, green: start state, red: accepting state(s).

  9. Nelder–Mead method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelder–Mead_method

    Nelder–Mead minimum search of Simionescu's function. Simplex vertices are ordered by their value, with 1 having the lowest (best) value. The Nelder–Mead method (also downhill simplex method, amoeba method, or polytope method) is a numerical method used to find the minimum or maximum of an objective function in a multidimensional space.
