Gaia , a free and strong UCI chess engine written in Rust. See also: gaiachess.fr — the original Gaia website Gaia 4 is a complete rewrite from C to Rust — not a single line of the original code survived. Back after 20 years. Author: Jean-Francois Romang Rating Chess Engines Diary CEDR=3911 Gaia what's new? New network architecture and its first network, gaianet-t7: about +10 Elo at 2+0.1 over 4.4.2's network. Networks from earlier releases no longer load (EvalFile). Stronger search: all 209 search parameters retuned, and ProbCut tried less often. Robustness fixes for malformed input: FEN, clock values, damaged tablebase files, networks without their integrity footer.
