[Marek Soszynski]

ShashChess 9.0 released:
https://github.com/amchess/ShashChess/releases/tag/9.0

The main novelties are
-support for live chessdb
-a new offline learning based on pattern recognition. It can be obtained via a private application. Without it, the behaviour is the same as the previous version.
The details in ReadMe file:
https://github.com/amchess/ShashChess/b ... /README.md

The results of the new private learning against neural networks (after only 20 learning games):

Great engine.

Could you say something more about Threads versus Full depth threads when not all threads are set to full depth?

Hi, Marek.

The thread you set with this option are used in full depth mode/brute force, so avoiding brutal prunings.
Clearly, it needs more time, but it can be very useful in some very hard positions.

What is the difference between Brianlearn and Sash chess?

[carldaman]

For one thing, Brainlearn doesn't feature the Tal/Petrosian/Capablanca personalities and special code based on Shashin's algorithms.

Need to improve your book, even I can beat people on Playchess.
