nnue-gui 1.0 released

Post by kranium »

Hi all-

nnue-gui 1.0 released
https://github.com/FireFather/nnue-gui

This is a basic tool/aid for training and creating stockfish-nnue eval networks (nn.bin).
It's a basic Windows GUI to keep track of settings, paths, UCI options, command line parameters, etc.

It will also launch the various binaries needed for all 3 phases:
gen training data, gen validation data, and learning (training).

It's a native 64-bit Windows application, with no external dependencies, and should run on most systems.

There are a couple of documents included, I hope there are no issues.

And thanks for the direct link, I knew, it would be a somewhat embarrasing reason for my not finding what I was looking for.

PS -

For the time being, just use the top panel for loading a specific binary...
the one labeled Gen Training Data (see image)

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FireF ... ue-gui.png

The other 2 are not working 100% at this time.
In the coming days, I'll either make a fix, or release a version that loads and manages just 1 executable....
(which all one really needs)

This GUI would be complete if you integrated a converter for pgn to the needed training data format. That includes fen, eval, outcome and then is huffman encoded. That would enable us to use CCRL/Lichess data which has a lot of annotated games with depths beyond 20. On my own I'm barely able to generate enough depth 10 positions.
