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: Smallbrain 4.0 NNUE

 


Smallbrain - UCI engine
Author: Disservin Rating CEDR=2132

v.4.0
Release
Since version 3.0 I've primarily worked on my search and got some improvements there, like using the SEE algorithm.
I've also reduced the size of a move and thus the size of each TT Entry which gained some strength.
Changes to the NN arch have not been made. More changes can be found in the release log.

As of right now it looks like v4.0 is 3000+ elo.
Feel free to message me if you run a tournament with Smallbrain or plan to do so.
