What's new

  • legio-septima, the first network trained from scratch with base and feature blocks together:
    TRANN2, Stockfish's SFNNv16 feature set plus our own PassedPawns block.
  • Evaluation constants retuned for this network: +3.75 ± 3.49 Elo.
  • +5% NPS at identical node counts: release builds compile the tuning parameters as constants.
  • score cp recalibrated for this network: +100 means a 50% chance of winning.
  • Hash up to 65536 MB, Threads up to 512.
