Re: creating an opening book
Is using someone else's chess engine (eg stockfish) to create an opening book considered creating?

Re: creating an opening book
The output of an algorithm, for example a compiler's sequence of instructions, the tables of a PST generator or an algorithm's move in some positions, can normally not be protected by intellectual property rights (copyright, patents, trademarks). But there are exceptions, such as artwork in games. The tournament organizer can always make additional rules.flok wrote:What I mean is: Is using someone else's chess engine (eg stockfish) to create an opening book considered cheating?
In the CSVN rules for example it is ok, provided the book is legal (of course... that means "not pirated" here), and you mention the book's origin in your tournament application (rule 7).

What do you mean by "cheating"?flok wrote:What I mean is: Is using someone else's chess engine (eg stockfish) to create an opening book considered cheating?
If you tell your wife (or husband) that you created an opening book using your own mental analysis, but you secretly used Stockfish, then you are cheating on your wife (or husband). And on yourself.
I don't really see any other way in which creating an opening book by whatever means could be considered "cheating". (OK, copying an existing one and calling it your own would be wrong.)
Selecting moves from GM games and adding them to your book? Completely fine.
Selecting moves from SF games and adding them to your book? Completely fine.
Using any engine to analyse a move and add it to your book? Completely fine.
I'm not sure what difference it makes that SF is free (whether as in beer or as in GPL).Ferdy wrote:Stockfish is free, that is not cheating.
Re: creating an opening book
Just to be clear: I'm not using the stockfish book (is there any?) but am using stockfish to create it (as I describer: my own program selects the positions to calculate and stockfish then calcs the score for it)

Re: creating an opening book
Time will come that an engine will be able to determine the result of the position (W/L/D) on most positions including positions in the early phase of the game. If that engine is free, it is all right everybody has access.syzygy wrote:I'm not sure what difference it makes that SF is free (whether as in beer or as in GPL).Ferdy wrote:Stockfish is free, that is not cheating.
