Hey. I am looking for a benchmark and/or a test suite for static exchange evaluation. Do such things even exist?
I realize that SEE is not supposed to be accurate, because of some of the more esoteric possible scenarios.
And yet, it seems that having a way for comparing accuracy of SEE algorithms would be a useful thing.

Re: SEE benchmark/test suite
I've seen several test suites in different engines. Arasan's author Jon Dart has some positions listed here: https://github.com/jdart1/arasan-chess/ ... t.cpp#L163. Although your SEE implementation may differ from his depending on how you implement promotions. So you may have to check some of the positions yourself and modify them to match the correct score for your conception of SEE.osvitashev wrote: ↑Thu Nov 11, 2021 3:56 pm Hey.
