PinguUCI compatible chess engine built from scratch.
Author: William Ching   Rating Chess Engines Diary CEDR=2844

v.5.0.0:
I am pleased to announce the release of Pingu 5.0.0!

This release includes major improvements:
New NNUE architecture: introduces a HalfKA feature set and subnetworks indexed by piece count
Parallel search: utilizes a Lazy SMP algorithm with shared hash table
Additionally, several enhancements have been made to move ordering and search speed. Self-play datasets for training the NNUE can be found in the README.
Self-play games against Pingu 4.0.0 indicate an Elo gain of approximately 170 points at short time controls!
