Are you going to swap in the new version for tcec? Maybe it can overtake the spaghetti code of lc0?

It is using mcts search in tcec. The alphabeta version has not been released yet. And the engine playing in TCEC is officially “Allie+Stein” as it is using Mark’s excellent SL “Stein” network. Without that, Allie could not play chess. Just want to note, that it's not correct to say that "Stein" is ...

Excellent news. The more the merrier.

What does distilled mean?

See the page. It contains a description.

I'm done with 11258. I have a full size net cooking right now, but will distill a few 32930 nets after.

Just to be clear, I have no issues with lc0 or Allie. My issue is with the somewhat arbitrary and vague TCEC rules governing Neural Network engine participation. These rules state: Definition A neural network is a computer system modeled on the human brain and nervous system. For the purpose of TCEC...

Just starting to test t50. So far at 2+2 on cpu, t35 is a little behind the distilled networks, but all within the margin of error. # PLAYER : RATING ERROR POINTS PLAYED (%) CFS(%) W D L D(%) 1 ethereal : 3256 38 402.5 459 87.7 100 359 87 13 19.0 2 ID11258-112x9-se : 2989 30 289.0 479 60.3 61 195 18...

I don’t take a stand on whether it is right or wrong, but Allie doesn’t use lc0 code. Also, the network uses lots of non-leela training data.

Allie uses Lc0 NN backends code: https://github.com/manyoso/allie/tree/master/lib/neural

Does that mean you’re going to throw another tcec hissy fit?

Thanks for the links. @velmarin: correct! I do not understand why to pay for the executables and be a patreon? Impudence!!! This must be free of charge for everybody, because it uses the free Lc0 code and all chess engines fans have the possiblity to see the project grown and to get more supporters...
