Chess engine: Leorik 2.1 (for Windows, Linux and Mac)


Leorik - UCI chess engine
Author-Thomas Jahn Rating CEDR=2392

v.2.1
This version adds a pawn structure term to the evaluation: A dynamic bonus is awarded to passed pawns based on the phase of the game and their position on the board. Pawns being connected with or protected by other friendly pawns are also awarded a constant bonus. Isolated pawns receive a constant malus. The pawn structure term is only updated when a pawn moves or get's captured. A small and simple pawn hash table is used to avoid re-evaluating previously encountered pawn structures. With as little as 4999 slots a hit-rate of >90% is achieved and so the overall performance cost of adding this term is small. Leorik 2.1 is only a few percent slower than the previous version and gains about 50 Elo in strength.

Features
Bitboards and Copy/Make
Pseudo-legal move generator
Evaluation based exclusively on tapered, tuned PSTs
Incremental updates of the evaluation and Zobrist hash
Two-bucket Transposition Table.
Staged move generation
MVV-LVA sorted captures
Killers
PVS search
Quiescence search

New chess engine: HypnoS 240324 (derived from Stockfish)

  HypnoS is a free and strong UCI chess engine derived from Stockfish  that analyzes chess positions and computes the optimal moves. HypnoS does not include a graphical user interface (GUI) that is required  to display a chessboard and to make it easy to input moves. These GUIs are  developed independently from HypnoS and are available online. HypnoS development is currently supported on the Openbench framework. OpenBench (created by Andrew Grant) is an open-source Sequential Probability Ratio Testing (SPRT) framework designed for self-play testing of engines. OpenBench makes use of distributed computing, allowing anyone to contribute CPU time to further the development of some of the world's most powerful engines. HypnoS 240324 download
