I am using Majority voting combination rule in weka. There are 4 classifiers in total. I am wondering what will happen if there is a tie in the number of votes
Weka API : “…..the random number generator used for breaking ties in majority voting..”.
See :http://fiji.sc/javadoc/weka/classifiers/meta/Vote.html
If you are interested in code , this is how they do it:
// Resolve the ties according to a uniform random distribution
int majorityIndex = majorityIndexes.get(m_Random
.nextInt(majorityIndexes.size()));
