Date: Thu May 14 20:47:59 2020 +0200 Timestamp: 1589482079 Simplify Time Management This is a functional simplification of the time management system. With this patch, there is a simple equation for each of two distinct time controls: basetime + increment, and x moves in y seconds (+increment). These equations are easy to plot and understand making future modifications or adding additional time controls much easier. SlowMover is reset to 100 so that is has no effect unless a user changes it. There are two scaling variables: * Opt_scale is a scale factor (or percentage) of time to use for this current move. * Max_scale is a scale factor to apply to the resulting optimumTime. There seems to be some elo gain in most scenarios. Better performance is attributable to one of two things: * minThinkingTime was not allowing reasonable time calculations for very short games like 10+0 or 10+0.01. This is because adding almost no increment and substracting move overhead for 50 moves quickly results in almost 0 time very early in the game. Master depended on minThinkingTime to handle these short games instead of good time management. This patch addresses this issue by lowering minThinkingTime to 0 and adjusting moverOverhead if there are very low increments. * Notice that the time distribution curves tail downward for the first 10 moves or so. This causes less time to attribute for very early moves leaving more time available for middle moves where more important decisions happen. Here is a summary of tests for this version at different time controls: SMP 5+0.05 LLR: 2.97 (-2.94,2.94) {-1.50,0.50} Total: 46544 W: 7175 L: 7089 D: 32280 Elo +0.64 Ptnml(0-2): 508, 4826, 12517, 4914, 507 https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/user/protonspring STC LLR: 2.94 (-2.94,2.94) {-1.50,0.50} Total: 20480 W: 3872 L: 3718 D: 12890 Elo +2.61 Ptnml(0-2): 295, 2364, 4824, 2406, 351 https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/5ebc343e7dd5693aad4e6873 STC, sudden death LLR: 2.93 (-2.94,2.94) {-1.50,0.50} Total: 7024 W: 1706 L: 1489 D: 3829 Elo +10.74 Ptnml(0-2): 149, 813, 1417, 938, 195 https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/5ebc346f7dd5693aad4e6875 STC, TCEC style LLR: 2.95 (-2.94,2.94) {-1.50,0.50} Total: 4192 W: 1014 L: 811 D: 2367 Elo +16.84 Ptnml(0-2): 66, 446, 912, 563, 109 https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/5ebc34857dd5693aad4e6877 40/10 LLR: 2.93 (-2.94,2.94) {-1.50,0.50} Total: 54032 W: 10592 L: 10480 D: 32960 Elo +0.72 Ptnml(0-2): 967, 6148, 12677, 6254, 970 https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/5ebc50597dd5693aad4e688d LTC, sudden death LLR: 2.95 (-2.94,2.94) {-1.50,0.50} Total: 9152 W: 1391 L: 1263 D: 6498 Elo +4.86 Ptnml(0-2): 75, 888, 2526, 1008, 79 https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/5ebc6f5c7dd5693aad4e689b LTC LLR: 2.98 (-2.94,2.94) {-1.50,0.50} Total: 12344 W: 1563 L: 1459 D: 9322 Elo +2.93 Ptnml(0-2): 70, 1103, 3740, 1171, 88 https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/5ebc6f4c7dd5693aad4e6899 closes https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/2678 Bench: 4395562 see source |

This patch keeps an explicit list of sources (SRCS), generates OBJS, and compiles all object files to the src/ directory, consistent with .depend. VPATH is used to search the syzygy directory as needed. joint work with @gvreuls closes https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/2664 No functional change see source |

Date: Sat May 2 17:32:11 2020 +0200 Timestamp: 1588433531 Fishtest Tuning Framework The purpose of the code is to allow developers to easily and flexibly setup SF for a tuning session. Mainly you have just to remove 'const' qualifiers from the variables you want to tune and flag them for tuning, so if you have: int myKing = 10; Score myBonus = S(5, 15); Value myValue[][2] = { { V(100), V(20) }, { V(7), V(78) } }; and at the end of the update you may want to call a post update function: void my_post_update(); If instead of default Option's min-max values, you prefer your custom ones, returned by: std::pair<int, int> my_range(int value) Or you jus want to set the range directly, you can simply add below: TUNE(SetRange(my_range), myKing, SetRange(-200, 200), myBonus, myValue, my_post_update); And all the magic happens :-) At startup all the parameters are printed in a format suitable to be copy-pasted in fishtest. In case the post update function is slow and you have many parameters to tune, you can add: UPDATE_ON_LAST(); And the values update, including post update function call, will be done only once, after the engine receives the last UCI option. The last option is the one defined and created as the last one, so this assumes that the GUI sends the options in the same order in which have been defined. closes https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/2654 No functional change. see source |
