Date: Fri Sep 6 16:53:45 2024 +0200 Timestamp: 1725634425 Stockfish 17 Official release version of Stockfish 17 Bench: 1484730 --- Stockfish 17 Today we have the pleasure to announce a new major release of Stockfish. As always, you can freely download it at https://stockfishchess.org/download and use it in the GUI of your choice. Don’t forget to join our Discord server[1] to get in touch with the community of developers and users of the project! *Quality of chess play* In tests against Stockfish 16, this release brings an Elo gain of up to 46 points[2] and wins up to 4.5 times more game pairs[3] than it loses. In practice, high-quality moves are now found in less time, with a user upgrading from Stockfish 14 being able to analyze games at least 6 times[4] faster with Stockfish 17 while maintaining roughly the same quality. During this development period, Stockfish won its 9th consecutive first place in the main league of the Top Chess Engine Championship (TCEC)[5], and the 24th consecutive first place in the main events (bullet, blitz, and rapid) of the Computer Chess Championship (CCC)[6]. *Update highlights* *Improved engine lines* This release introduces principal variations (PVs) that are more informative for mate and decisive table base (TB) scores. In both cases, the PV will contain all moves up to checkmate. For mate scores, the PV shown is the best variation known to the engine at that point, while for table base wins, it follows, based on the TB, a sequence of moves that preserves the game outcome to checkmate. *NUMA performance optimization* For high-end computers with multiple CPUs (typically a dual-socket architecture with 100+ cores), this release automatically improves performance with a `NumaPolicy` setting that optimizes non-uniform memory access (NUMA). Although typical consumer hardware will not benefit, speedups of up to 2.8x[7] have been measured. *Shoutouts* *ChessDB* During the past 1.5 years, hundreds of cores have been continuously running Stockfish to grow a database of analyzed positions. This chess cloud database[8] now contains well over 45 billion positions, providing excellent coverage of all openings and commonly played lines. This database is already integrated into GUIs such as En Croissant[9] and Nibbler[10], which access it through the public API. *Leela Chess Zero* Generally considered to be the strongest GPU engine, it continues to provide open data which is essential for training our NNUE networks. They released version 0.31.1[11] of their engine a few weeks ago, check it out! *Website redesign* Our website has undergone a redesign in recent months, most notably in our home page[12], now featuring a darker color scheme and a more modern aesthetic, while still maintaining its core identity. We hope you'll like it as much as we do! *Thank you* The Stockfish project builds on a thriving community of enthusiasts (thanks everybody!) who contribute their expertise, time, and resources to build a free and open-source chess engine that is robust, widely available, and very strong. We would like to express our gratitude for the 11k stars[13] that light up our GitHub project! Thank you for your support and encouragement – your recognition means a lot to us. We invite our chess fans to join the Fishtest testing framework[14] to contribute compute resources needed for development. Programmers can contribute to the project either directly to Stockfish[15] (C++), to Fishtest[16] (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Python), to our trainer nnue-pytorch[17] (C++ and Python), or to our website[18] (HTML, CSS/SCSS, and JavaScript).

Date: Tue Aug 20 20:59:36 2024 +0200 Timestamp: 1724180376 Update default main net to nn-1111cefa1111.nnue Created from 2 distinct spsa tunes of the latest main net (nn-31337bea577c.nnue) and applying the params to the prior main net (nn-e8bac1c07a5a.nnue). This effectively reverts the modifications to output weights and biases in https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/5509 SPSA: A: 6000, alpha: 0.602, gamma: 0.101 1st - 437 feature transformer biases where values are < 25 54k / 120k games at 180+1.8 https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/66af98ac4ff211be9d4edad0 nn-808259761cca.nnue 2nd - 208 L2 weights where values are zero 112k / 120k games at 180+1.8 https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/66b0c3074ff211be9d4edbe5 nn-a56cb8c3d477.nnue When creating the above 2 nets (nn-808259761cca.nnue, nn-a56cb8c3d477.nnue), spsa params were unintentionally applied to nn-e8bac1c07a5a.nnue rather than nn-31337bea577c.nnue due to an issue in a script that creates nets by applying spsa results to base nets. Since they both passed STC and were neutral or slightly positive at LTC, they were combined to see if the elo from each set of params was additive. The 2 nets can be merged on top of nn-e8bac1c07a5a.nnue with: https://github.com/linrock/nnue-tools/blob/90942d3/spsa/combine_nnue.py ``` python3 combine_nnue.py \ nn-e8bac1c07a5a.nnue \ nn-808259761cca.nnue \ nn-a56cb8c3d477.nnue ``` Merging yields nn-87caa003fc6a.nnue which was renamed to nn-1111cefa1111.nnue with an updated nnue-namer around 10x faster than before by: - using a prefix trie for efficient prefix matches - modifying 4 non-functional bytes near the end of the file instead of 2 https://github.com/linrock/nnue-namer Thanks to @MinetaS for pointing out in #nnue-dev what the non-functional bytes are: L3 is 32, 4 bytes for biases, 32 bytes for weights. (fc_2) So -38 and -37 are technically -2 and -1 of fc_1 (type AffineTransform<30, 32>) And since InputDimension is padded to 32 there are total 32 of 2 adjacent bytes padding. So yes, it's non-functional whatever values are there. It's possible to tweak bytes at -38 - 32 * N and -37 - 32 * N given N = 0 ... 31 The net renamed with the new method passed non-regression STC vs. the original net: https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/66c0f0a821503a509c13b332 To print the spsa params with nnue-pytorch: ``` import features from serialize import NNUEReader feature_set = features.get_feature_set_from_name("HalfKAv2_hm") with open("nn-31337bea577c.nnue", "rb") as f: model = NNUEReader(f, feature_set).model c_end = 16 for i,ft_bias in enumerate(model.input.bias.data[:3072]): value = int(ft_bias * 254) if abs(value) < 25: print(f"ftB[{i}],{value},-1024,1024,{c_end},0.0020") c_end = 6 for i in range(8): for j in range(32): for k in range(30): value = int(model.layer_stacks.l2.weight.data[32 * i + j, k] * 64) if value == 0: print(f"twoW[{i}][{j}][{k}],{value},-127,127,{c_end},0.0020") ``` New params found with the same method as: https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/5459 Passed STC: https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/66b4d4464ff211be9d4edf6e LLR: 2.94 (-2.94,2.94) <0.00,2.00> Total: 136416 W: 35753 L: 35283 D: 65380 Elo +1.20 Ptnml(0-2): 510, 16159, 34416, 16597, 526 Passed LTC: https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/66b76e814ff211be9d4ee1cc LLR: 2.95 (-2.94,2.94) <0.50,2.50> Total: 159336 W: 40753 L: 40178 D: 78405 Elo +1.25 Ptnml(0-2): 126, 17497, 43864, 18038, 143 closes https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/5534 bench 1613043 see source |

Date: Sat Aug 3 09:42:03 2024 +0200 Timestamp: 1722670923 Move DotProd code into optimized affine layer This patch moves the DotProd code into the propagation function which has sequential access optimization. To prove the speedup, the comparison is done without the sparse layer. With the sparse layer the effect is marginal (GCC 0.3%, LLVM/Clang 0.1%). For both tests, binary is compiled with GCC 14.1. Each test had 50 runs. Sparse layer included: ``` speedup = +0.0030 P(speedup > 0) = 1.0000 ``` Sparse layer excluded: ``` speedup = +0.0561 P(speedup > 0) = 1.0000 ``` closes https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/5520 No functional change see source |

Date: Sat Aug 3 09:41:37 2024 +0200 Timestamp: 1722670897 Replicate network weights only to used NUMA nodes On a system with multiple NUMA nodes, this patch avoids unneeded replicated (e.g. 8x for a single threaded run), reducting memory use in that case.
