Re: Has Stockfish NNUE reached it's limit now?
Look at the learning graphs on page 4: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1712.01815.pdf Yes, it is the normal behavior and most NN learning graphs look like that. However, that is for the particular net parameters of that training run. There are many hyper-parameters that change from one net to another. A some...

Re: Queens Gambit

Re: Queens Gambit
*** Warning: Spoilers Alert *** I have also been enjoying QG very much, and have watched it 5+ times. As to it being realistic about actual chess, while it may not be completely accurate (which would be intolerably boring for all but a few diehards), many have said it is in fact far more realistic t...

Re: A different way to develop chess engines
Your approach is theoretically sound, but not practical for human "hand crafted" changes.
It is pretty much what net training is doing with now into the billions of positions, using automated processes of course.

Re: A different way to develop chess engines
The idea is that the test suite is not going to be WAC 300 but based on the positions that the engine went wrong... I think you missed my point.

Re: A different way to develop chess engines
Your approach has indeed been done for several decades.
It works at first, but then it becomes clearer that tuning for a test set is not the same as actual game strength.
Recall the early focus on WAC 300 scores...
