Rodent NN

Rebel compatible

Rodent from Pawel Koziol is one of those engines with an excellent HCE evaluation.


Rodent IV 0.22 is rated 2988 on CCRL and 2998 on GRL.

We decided to move Rodent to NNUE evaluation, created a dataset of 800 million analyzed positions with Rodent 4.022 and moved the 800 million positions into the learner, tested the new created net with Rebel and Rodent NN gained about 200 elo over Rodent 4.022


In reality the Rodent net is actually 300 elo stronger when Pawel will implement the net into his own (Rodent) source code.
