We hope you will consider supporting us today. We need your support to continue to exist, because good entries are more and more work time. Every reader contribution, however big or small, is so valuable. Support "Chess Engines Diary" even a small amount– and it only takes a minute. Thank you.

Chess engine: Greko 2021.05



Greko - UCI chess engine, Author: Vladimir Medvedev

GreKo 2021.05 (15-May-2021):
Numerous changes in search and evaluation.
Main differences with 2020.03:
- Refactored and simplified code for search. Use the same function for all node types.
- More parameters for evaluation weights. Use tabulated values instead of quadratic approximations.
- Optimization in hash key calculation. Pawn hash key now is a part of main hash key.
- Use simpler time management algorithm.
- Use stochastic gradient descent as a single training method, instead of mix with coordinate descent before.
- Trained from pure material weights in 1.6 M positions from self-play games, fixed depth = 5.
Estimated playing strength is +20...+50 Elo points over 2020.03, depending on time settings.
The slower time control the stronger.
