Leela ID 31252, engine version 19.4, can reproduce Alpha Zero move, 21. Bg5!! at 15 secs, 26k nodes in my GTX 1060 GPU. (see the link) https://ibb.co/dXwuAL rn3r1k/pn1p1ppq/bpp4p/7P/4N1Q1/6P1/PP3PB1/R1B1R1K1 w - - 3 21 It is clearly not amazing because it seems white can win by 21.b4 Stockfish_1811...

I remember seeing it in the table few days ago with 0 points. It is also in the participants list in division 4 http://www.chessdom.com/tcec-season-14-lets-get-ready-to-boom/ For some reasons I do not see it in the table now https://tcec.chessdom.com/ I thought that after some X games people decided...

What does your program do in this? fen 4k2r/pb3p2/2p1p2p/1p2q3/B1p5/2Pr1B2/2Q2PPP/R4RK1 w - - 0 1 Provide full search for a five minute run. For extra credit beyond getting the best move, name the (human) players in the position. I do not believe humans played this position. In order to get this po...

Yes i agree! And Lc0 is number one in the CCC 2 Blitz Battle.That says everything

I see stockfish is leading in the CCC 2 blitz battle

stockfish 37.5/59
komodo 28/59
lc0 27.5/59
houdini 25/59

First, I checked that K12.2 AB and K12.2 MCTS behave very similarly in all sorts of variants and phases of the game, so Leela weird behavior in variants and endgames (weaker than regular chess performance) is due mostly to its eval and not to its MCTS search. K MCTS is simply about 100-150 Elo poin...

I am the author of movei but I got a lot of help from other people with the non mathematical part of the program and I also started by copying some structures from tscp but not working chess code(and my move generator is clearly different than the move generator of other programs) I do not like to s...

thanks another question. Why pick definition of std gives me different result in stockfish and in a different code? When I click pick definition of std in the first line of main.cpp in stockfish it show me the fstream code but when I pick the same in a different file that has part of stockfish it sh...

Chess engines using heavily brute force search are not playing chess. They emulate it via search tree. What we need is an engine that knows about chess and chooses those branches and lines That makes sense using a chess knowledge, Like humans are doing it, stockfish and other top programs already d...

I know NO human being playing chess doing brute force. What a nonsense.

Of course in blitz it is not possible but at long time control I try to look at all the options that I have in the next move and all options that the opponent has in reply to my move as part of my thinking.

The result depends on the time limit, but in general Komodo does surprisingly well giving material handicaps to weaker engines. I would think that it will take a rather strong modern engine to score 50% at some moderately rapid time control against Komodo at this Exhange odds handicap. Since you sa...
