8/18/2023 0 Comments Bluefish versus stockfish chessStockfish NNEU is a method to create a neural net which operates with Stockfish. Stockfish development has thrown up two fascinating projects. Fat Fritz is based on a different network development method but does add to players options. A neural net is an essential part of an aspiring CC players arsenal, but it is now much easier to achieve for two reasons:įat Fritz has been updated and runs well on CPU based hardware (as opposed to LC0 which really requires a high-quality graphics card). Significant work has been undertaken to make LC 0 far easier to install and many specialised nets have been developed, Elo improvement has slowed, and development of Stockfish has been spurred on to compete with LC0. Neural net development has continued to advance ![]() Whilst not quite at the same level as the top engines it does have an interesting playing style. In terms of other engines outside of the main players the main newcomer has been Ethereal. ![]() Whilst the veracity of this is not of interest, it would be surprising to see an updated version of this engine appear in some form. Houdini has had no new releases in several years but in recent months, what is allegedly the source code has appeared in public forums. CFish offers some speed benefits, so this is worth watching to see if the efforts are successful. It appeared CFish had gone the same way but in recent weeks an effort has been made to bring the code up to date. This port of Stockfish into Assembler had proven very popular with enthusiasts due to its additional speed boost but it is now so far behind Stockfish in terms of development that any speed advantage pales into insignificance compared with the deficits in search and evaluation. ![]() It's been sometime since I was last in the Engine room and quite a bit has happened in the world of Chess Engine development in that time!ĪSMfish is no more.
