The motion of the particles then is governed by the wavefunction through a “guiding equation”. This guiding equation is carefully chosen so that if the arrangement of the particles initially satisfies some statistical constraints, the evolution of the system will match the Born-rule predictions of orthodox quantum mechanics. Traditionally, the particular guiding equation that is chosen is also deterministic. However, the constraint that the evolution of the system should match the empirical predictions of orthodox quantum mechanics appears to be consistent with other guiding equations, and
