Stockfish - UCI chess engine, compiled by Stéphane Nicolet Rating JCER=3304 Timestamp: 1593376963 Scale down eval for queen imbalance We lower the endgame value of the evaluation when we detect that there  is only one queen left on the board (more precisely, we use a scale  factor of 37/64, or about 0.58, for the endgame part of the evaluation). Hopefully this helps a little bit for the assessment of positions with  queen imbalance, which are one of the well-known Stockfish weaknesses.

ShashChes s - UCI chess engine. Rating JCER=3212 ShahChess derived from Stockfish family chess engines.  It's a pleasure to annonce the new ShashChess 12 release with a lot of novelties: -completely revised Shashin theory so that we reached a main goal of our development: the best tactical solver (better than Houdini tactical) without loosing in strength compared to Stockfish: no other button needed! Our tests results will follow. In particular, many thanks to JHellis and its latest Crystal derivative. No more contempt: it's integrated in Shashin theory and we have no rollcoaster effect: the score is truly aligned with the gui We demonstrated the effectiveness of Shashin theory at no fast time controls and there is yet a very large margin of improvement: a lot of discarded Stockfish community patches (thanks clearly for their immense work)can be well integrated thanks to Shashin theory, improving game play and/or hard positions management. -new Self Q-learning, ...

Release:  Verbose move stats now includes a line for the root node itself. Added optional alphazero time manager type for fixed fraction of remaining time per move. The WL score is now tracked with double pecision to improve accuracy during very long search. Fix for a performance bug when playing from tablebase position with tablebases enabled and the PV move was changing frequently. Illegal searchmove restrictions will now be ignored rather than crash. Policy is cleared for terminal losses to encourage better quality MLH estimates by reducing how many visits a move that will not be selected (unless all other options are equally bad) receives. Smart pruning will now cause leela to play immediately once mate score has been declared. Fix an issue where sometimes the pv reported wouldn't match the move that would be selected at that moment. Improvement for logic for when to disable custom_winograd optimization to avoid running out of video ram. --show-hidden can n...
