Stockfish - UCI chess engine, compiled by Stéphane Nicolet Rating JCER=3294 Timestamp: 1601325746 Include pawns in NNUE scaling We now include the total pawn count in the scaling factor for the output of the NNUE evaluation network. This should have the effect of trying to keep more pawns when SF has the advantage, but exchange them when she is defending. Thanks to Alexander Pagel (Lolligerhans) for the idea of using the value of pawns to ease the comparison with the rest of the material estimation.

Stockfish - UCI chess engine, compiled by Stéphane Nicolet Rating JCER=3294 Timestamp: 1601187890 Tweak nnue scaling to keep more material Current master uses a constant scale factor of 5/4 = 1.25 for the output of the NNUE network, for compatibility with search and classical evaluation. We modify this scale factor to make it dependent on the phase of the game, going from about 1.5 in the opening to 1.0 for pure pawn endgames. This helps Stockfish to avoid exchanges of pieces (heavy pieces in particular) when she has the advantage, keeping more material on the board when attacking.

Halogen - UCI chess engine Author: Kieren Pearson Halogen now comes packaged with its very own neural network for evaluation! The network is embedded into the executable and no additional work is needed for the engine to work.  The weights file for the NN is included in the ./src/ directory and is written in a plain text format for convenience. The network has 741 input parameters, 64 hidden neurons and one output with ReLU activation. The weights are embedded into the executable and do not need to be placed in the local directory. Change log: Improved evaluation by implementing a neural network (#49, #51, #53, #69, #72, #75 ~80 ELO) Implemented IID reduction as outlined by the author of Rebel (#50) Added Syzygy EGTB support through Fantom (https://github.com/jdart1/Fathom). Tested up to 5 piece but shouldn't have issues with 6 or 7 (#57) Fixed implementation of static exchange evaluation to work correctly (#65 ~40 ELO) Removed pawn blockade detection as it has no effect...

  Fisherov - UCI chess engine (NNUE) Fisherov is a chess engine derived from stockfish. Code has been added in various parts to achieve a different style, which becomes more evident by deactivating his neural networks (although this would cause him to significantly lose his strength but he would gain in aggressiveness, which would be interesting for human training or to make him compete against other non-neural chess engines). For greater robustness and competitiveness, the use of a neural network must be left activated (as it already comes by default). The engine already has a network incorporated, although there is also the possibility of using another network from the UCI options. This engine was developed by Luis Damián Primo and Andres Ivan Primo residents of the province of Córdoba, Argentina.  Fisherov 0.92 NNUE download  -  Engine is not publicly available and is non-commercial "Due to a request from the Stockfish team in doubt about compliance with the GNU...
