Another PSQT tuning round This time with a new algorithm by Joona. It works basically like this: repeat { 1) pick 8000 random positions from qsearch 2) "go depth 8" to get the true evaluation. 3) "eval" to get the stand pat score 4) Adjusting parameters one by one to minimize deltasum between true evaluation and stand pat scores. } * Good news: method seems to converge * Bad news: Point where it converges is not optimum. So it's more or less trial and error... sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. It can give you the right direction, but if you let it run too long, it fails. Far from scientific ;) After 14800 games with 5s/game Orig - Mod: 3318 - 3570 - 7626 (+6 elo) Signed-off-by: Marco Costalba <mcostalba@gmail.com>
