OK, we are still mucking around with this. Joshua is compiling using the latest MSVC stuff. Here's our problem (I don't have a windows box to try this on so am getting compile help.) We can access __popcnt() with no problems including intrin.h. but we can NOT access __popcnt64(). Apparently the com...

Let's say it was possible. I doubt that one could store the number of weights needed for that network because I dont think current networks arelarge enough to give a perfect answer to any chess position Has anyone tried to compress the data of a 3 men tablebase in a NN and get the same result?

But I thought that singular extension aimed at looking if in the current situation there is only one good move (and then extend). If depth of the tt move is enough, and we trust it, I was thinking that at least ttscore-pawnValue was the bound to use (in a fail soft framework). Maybe all those very ...

Is practical? Is it even possible? Surely a simple MTCS evaluation should be possible on it. No & no. ASIC - Application-Specific Integrated Circuit Bitcoin miner just performs SHA2 hash calculation. Nothing more, nothing less. It is not an FPGA (at least new miners are not an FPGA), and cannot be ...

Hi Kai, what's about your last experiments with this opening suite ? Are last nets of LC0 (those >300) positionally better than Stockfish & Komodo ? Offhand, I'd say maybe, but that is a very speculative maybe. One cannot remove tactics from the equation, so oversights in its calculations will affe...

Is it possible? How? I would like to try.

I wonder if LCZero based posts could have their own place because it is hard to find other post among those related to it. And I hereby assure other authors not to be intimidated by the LCZero flood. I still love their engines and wait eagerly for new releases. Few years ago almost every post was a...
