TM Dendogram - Christmas 2013 Edition

[ThomasJMiller]

does it means that Vajolet is not similar to any other engine?
I'm really happy about that

Santa said you'll receive a toy

[elcabesa]

it's has been the most beautiful toy I received, I used lot's of ideas code from stockfish and other open source engines and I alway worried about "being a clone".
Now I'm happy. My engine is not strong but it's not a clone too

Hello Thomas,

Djinn is weak, but I know I haven't copied it--that said, I would be very curious who it is most similar to. Could you include it in the test, (latest public version is 0.992)?

thanks,

Djinn 0.925x was included in the similarity testing that I did a couple of years ago. Ed is hosting my report here. In the dendrograms at that link, distances greater than 0.44 are good.

Hello Tom,
unfortunately Djinn supports only the Winboard protocol and Don's Similarity Tester works with UCI engines. I might try Wb2UCI, but I had some problems with it in the past.

I think Djinn + wb2uci worked fine for me, but I do not quite remember. It is possible that you will have to change 'go depth 50' to 'go infinite'.

Here is a fine working WB2UCI configuration:

[ENGINE]
Name=Djinn 0.992
Author=Tom Likens, Etat-Unis
Filename=Wb2Uci.exe

[OPTIONS]
Program=djinn992_x64_popcnt.exe
TerminateHard=true
Whitescore=true
LevelExtend=failsafe
InitTime=5
MateScore=100000
Ownbook=true

Just change the name of the .exe file according to your system....

Marco, do not follow this path.

I indigestible theme clone.
Vajolet is a derivative by Winglet , educational engine by Stef Luijten.

Keep up the good work, but not entangled.
Greetings Jose.
