Subject: Latest abrok Development Version June 14th 2021 inc Update default net to nn-8e47cf062333.nnue (SF The gift that keeps on giving ) Mon Jun 14, 2021 2:17 pm
This net is the result of training on data used by the Leela project. More precisely, we shuffled T60 and T74 data kindly provided by borg (for different Tnn, the data is a result of Leela selfplay with differently sized Leela nets).
The Leela data comes in small chunks of .binpack files. To shuffle them, we simply used a small python script to randomly rename the files, and then concatenated them using `cat`. As validation data we picked a file of T60 data. We will further investigate T74 data.
The training for the NNUE architecture used 200 epochs with the Python trainer from the Stockfish project. Unlike the previous run we tried with this data, this run does not have adjusted scaling — not because we didn't want to, but because we forgot. However, this training randomly skips 40% more positions than previous run. The loss was very spiky and decreased slower than it does usually.
