Lc0 30xxx continues below the 10xxx series
Posted: Sat Dec 08, 2018 4:34 pm
The series 30 of Leela Chess Zero continues advancing but it does not reach the level of the series 10.
I have played two matches to compare:
Lc0_11261-Stockfish9
Lc0_31696-Stockfish9
Lc0 has used a GTX1060 GPU with 3Gb while Stockfish 9 has used three cores of the i7 4790S resulting in an approximate LeR ratio of 0.75. Lc0 played with endgame tabletables of 6 pieces, Stockfish9 no.
The time control was 25 minutes for the entire game with an increase of 10 seconds.
I used the Silver Suite of openings, that I think is the best one for testing with 50 well-chosen positions.
While version 11261 of Lc0 won Stockfish9 by a very small difference of 51.5%, Stockfish9 won convincingly Lc0_31696 with 27 wins and 59.5%
Lc019rc4_11261TB 100 (+ 13, = 77, - 10), 51.5%
Stockfish_9_x3 100 (+ 10, = 77, - 13), 48.5%
Stockfish_9_x3 100 (+ 27, = 65, - 8), 59.5%
Lc019_31696TB 100 (+ 8, = 65, - 27), 40.5%
The games of the series 30 were a hard fight where the aggressiveness of Lc0_31696 turned against it many times.

The test of the series 10 was a complete disaster because release candidate lc0.19 hung several times, time forfeits, disconnected engines, etc, that forced to repeat many games.
I will comment some games of the series 30. In this testing there were no problems with final version 0.19.
In the first, a failed exchange sacrifice of Lc031696 gave victory to Sf9.

I have played two matches to compare:
Lc0_11261-Stockfish9
Lc0_31696-Stockfish9
Lc0 has used a GTX1060 GPU with 3Gb while Stockfish 9 has used three cores of the i7 4790S resulting in an approximate LeR ratio of 0.75. Lc0 played with endgame tabletables of 6 pieces, Stockfish9 no.
The time control was 25 minutes for the entire game with an increase of 10 seconds.
I used the Silver Suite of openings, that I think is the best one for testing with 50 well-chosen positions.
While version 11261 of Lc0 won Stockfish9 by a very small difference of 51.5%, Stockfish9 won convincingly Lc0_31696 with 27 wins and 59.5%
Lc019rc4_11261TB 100 (+ 13, = 77, - 10), 51.5%
Stockfish_9_x3 100 (+ 10, = 77, - 13), 48.5%
Stockfish_9_x3 100 (+ 27, = 65, - 8), 59.5%
Lc019_31696TB 100 (+ 8, = 65, - 27), 40.5%
The games of the series 30 were a hard fight where the aggressiveness of Lc0_31696 turned against it many times.
Here are all the games in pgn

The test of the series 10 was a complete disaster because release candidate lc0.19 hung several times, time forfeits, disconnected engines, etc, that forced to repeat many games.
I will comment some games of the series 30. In this testing there were no problems with final version 0.19.
In the first, a failed exchange sacrifice of Lc031696 gave victory to Sf9.
