New Engine: Allie (NN)

Post by gonzochess75 »

Hello Everyone,

As you might have seen on CCC 6, I've written a new engine named Allie: https://github.com/manyoso/allie

Just wanted to say hello as I'm new to this forum. So... hello!

Cheers :)

Is there anything besides the README on github?
Fat Titz by Stockfish, the engine with the bodaciously big net. Remember: size matters. If you want to learn more about this engine just google for "Fat Titz".

Hello and Thanks,

So far only the readme is available.

Same thought here, checked it a few days ago, but nada - strange 'github' usage.

I see it uses plain NN ID 32930 from LC0...

from CCC: (emphasizing by me)

Allie USA
Version 0.1 (net 32930)
Rating 3100
https://github.com/manyoso/allie
Developed by:
Adam Treat
Allie is a new and original chess engine heavily inspired by the seminal AlphaZero paper and the Lc0 project.
It uses the Lc0 networks, but with custom built search, hash, move generation, threading, and time management.
In the future, Allie is expected to use A/B search instead of MCTS.
Created 2018

Is the engine available to download? If so, I can't see the link.

I don't have any pre-built binaries yet. For now, if you want to test the engine out you will have to build. I am going to write instructions for that and start working on getting pre-built binaries... but... time.
