The semi-source independent quantum walk random number generator (SI-QW-QRNG) is a cryptographic protocol that extracts a string of true random bits from a quantum random walk with an adversary controls a randomness source, but the dimension of the system is known. This paper analyzes SI-QW-QRNG protocols with a memory-based quantum walk state. The new protocol utilizes a generalized coin operator with various parameters to optimize the randomness of the quantum walk state. We focus on evaluations of the protocols in multiple scenarios and walk configurations. Moreover, we show some interesting behavior of the system depending on the size of the memory space and the number of quantum coins.
