    Compared to weighted algorithm, this randomness halved the number of mistakes the algorithm is going to make. [9] However, it is important to note that in some research, people define η = 1 / 2 {\displaystyle \eta =1/2} in weighted majority algorithm and allow 0 ≤ η ≤ 1 {\displaystyle 0\leq \eta \leq 1} in randomized weighted majority ...
