Which of the following is an example of a deterministic algorithm?

pca

k-means

Both A and B

None of these

Answer is Right!

Answer is Wrong!

The correct answer is: A. PCA

PCA is a deterministic algorithm because it always produces the same output for the same input. This is because PCA is a linear transformation,

K-means is not a deterministic algorithm because it can produce different outputs for the same input, depending on the initial cluster centers. This is because k-means is an iterative algorithm, and the initial cluster centers can affect the final clustering results.

Both A and B is not the correct answer because PCA is a deterministic algorithm, but k-means is not.

None of these is not the correct answer because PCA is an example of a deterministic algorithm.
