In this game versus redqueen, Minic decided to trade down its two rooks for an army of passers and to win the game... And I like that ! :lol:

So after previous unsuccessful tries, I decided it is time to tune Minic for real ...
I'm using the classics : Texel tunig method, gradient descent (using batch of size one tenth of the full data set), quiet.edp from zurichess.
In the past i've also tried "naive" descend, PSO, secant method, but a simple gradient seems to work here without linesearch as soon as I set the learning rate to be at most 2 for the most important parameter at each step (so that I don't really follow the real gradient but it's most important parts).
I'm tuning families of parameters one by one, so pawn stuff, mobility stuff, rook stuff, ...

And well ... it's work ... very well ... I currently have +120 at short TC in self test against Minic 0.65 ! :D :shock:

Thanks, but this is more or less the same as other recent young engines as Asymptote, Topple, or Igel and in a way far behind Rofchade1 or Xiphos0.1 ...
But still fun to learn and progress !
