The 10th Leiden International CSVN Tournament was held the weekend of May 28-30 and Rybka won ahead of Deep Sjeng, Hiarcs and Deep Shredder.
A big thanks to the guys on our team for their hard work and also to the organizers for an excellent job putting together a strong and interesting field.
Rybka again ran on Lukas Cimiotti's cluster, which now contains 6 Nehalem 12-core machines and 7 Nehalem 8-core machines for a total of 13 computers and 128 cores. Aside from hardware upgrades, most of the clustering improvements from this year have centered on using the cluster for analysis rather than for competitive game play. Analysis in multi-variation mode is now especially efficient. Lukas has also spent some time improving behavior related to remote engine use, such as robustness to internet disconnections. The cluster can now safely be hosted for extended periods of time without manual assistance. Victor Zakharov and his team at Convekta deserve mention for improvements to their remote engine server/client tools.
On the opening book side, Jeroen Noomen made his long-awaited comeback. Jeroen's break was over twelve months long, an eternity in the world of opening theory. During this time, not only opening theory but also Rybka herself has changed. She now has a more dynamic style and while this is popular with users, Jeroen tends to prefer classical play. With white, Jeroen took an aggressive approach - Pandix, Komodo and Hiarcs got in trouble quickly, and only Deep Sjeng escaped the opening with an ok position. With black, Jeroen was more restrained, and Rybka was fed a diet of sound systems which led to slow, long-term play. I suspect that this was partly a matter of risk management and partly due to the fact that with black, sharp opening duels have a tendency to lead to draws. The opening play was very successful - the white opening positions were excellent and with black Rybka didn't concede any draws.
Jiri Dufek also helped Jeroen get back up to speed. I am sure there will be some questions about how things will go with two ultra-talented book guys on the same team. We have of course our plan for this, which we'll keep private for now to keep other teams guessing. :)
Our on-site operator was Hans van der Zijden.
The tournament itself was a little bit unusual. We lost the game vs Deep Sjeng, which was running on a pretty big cluster of its own. This would normally be very bad news, but Deep Sjeng went on an uncharacteristic drawing spree while Rybka kept squeezing out full points, and in the end we even won the tournament with a half-point to spare.

>Analysis in multi-variation mode is now especially efficient.
I am glad to see you got that working for Lukas while you left the rest of us with a broken Multi-Pv in Rybka 4(Chessbase GUI). Anytime I try to forward analyze a position then return to the root and switch to multi-pv Rybka 4 freezes up. Thanks Vas for letting us common folk know where your priority's are.
I use MPV quite often and haven't had a problem. I use the CB GUI. Is it specific to a certain position or do you have problems in all MPV analysis?
> Is it specific to a certain position or do you have problems in all MPV analysis?
I am having problems in most positions where Rybka scores one side decently favorable(~0.50-1.50) but have also had it lock up on me 8 moves into a 6.h3 Najdorf. I guess you and Lukas aren't reading the support threads because I along with a dozen others have reproduced this problem.
I am having the same problem as Bobby C with Deep Rybka 4 and MPV analysis. Rybka 4 frequently stalls. It happens on more than just one position.
Sometimes the problem is not inside the computer but in front of it.
Multi-pv works very well in Rybka 4.
Multi-pv works very well in Rybka 4.
I tried to go through all the steps, but after 5 minutes I was still on depth 17. I guess this is one of the positions that the branching simply blows up into all sorts of lines. Even if I would follow the steps mentioned and would be able to reproduce the bug, I really think you can't call that a blanket failure of MPV. A more accurate description would be that in some special cases MPV doesn't work like you would like it to. I use MPV analysis always and used it specifically when watching the Cluster games in Lieden. Had absolutely no problems. Maybe in some positions there is a problem or maybe when some certain steps are taken a bug can be produced, but MPV certainly works. By the way this sounds more like the hash simply gets filled and you need to flush it. I mean you are filling the hash tables with single PV data and then all of a sudden you switch to MPV after a lot of the tables are already filled with data from the single PV ... so what does the engine do? I guess if you want it to discard all the single PV data and start a brand new MPV data set from scratch then you should clear the hash. Does MPV also not work if you clear hash in that situation? Is this bug also there if you are using a lot of RAM on your system and if you use larger hash settings?
>Is this bug also there if you are using a lot of RAM on your system and if you use larger hash settings?
I always use hash tables between 512mb-1024mb. I have 4gb of 1150mhz DDR2 on a [email protected], CB GUI11, and Windows 7 Premium 64bit. I have also had Single-PV lock up on me, in fact I sent a screenshot to Vytron when I first noticed it and he though it was "sampled search" screwing up but then we reproduced it in a GUI without sampled search. I am very pissed off that Vas is nowhere to be found and leaves all his customer support to volunteers. Ansari, any middlegame position that I have tried these steps on so far has failed.
#1) Start on any given position with single pv for about 2 minutes.
#2) Play a good centaur move on the board that is not what Rybka suggests
#3) Go back to the root and switch to multi-pv.
I do this to watch Rybka compare two moves that I am considering side by side. If I am working on position in a correspondence game sometimes just starting with multi-pv Rybka won't show the two moves that are best, I have to force Rybka to look at them with single PV and then back up and switch to multi-pv.
When you want to switch to MPV after hash is filled with single PV search, the engine gets confused as the depths of MPV and the deep search of single PV will not match. I guess it the algo could be designed to automatically clear hash when you switch from single PV to MPV, but really in the meantime it would take about 1 second to do it manually. I think it is harsh to call that a bug and a better description would be to just say you would prefer you didn't have to clear hash when switching from deep SPV to MPV in some conditions. Anyway give hash clear a try before changing from deep SPV to MPV and see if it solves the problem you were sharing.
Your telling me that Rybka fills a 1gb has in less then 2 minutes? Why would I want to use multi-pv if Rybka didn't remember the moves I showed it with single-pv?
Well single PV and multi PV are quite different and fill up tables differently. Obviously a single PV will go deeper much quicker and if you have a deep single PV and you then start a multi PV, there is a possibility that due to MP non deterministic behavior of MP search that the single PV will not be as good a move as the second or third move of the MPV search. This happens quite often ... you search a position in single variation mode and Rybka chooses a move, when searching the same position with multi variations it finds a stronger move almost immediately than a deep search of SV mode. From what I understand from your thread, you are expecting that the SV variation is the strongest simply because it searched that variation longer than in MV mode, and you want it to automatically be the first choice of the MV variation ... that is simply wrong and would not be accurate. That is not how it works and you HAVE to clear hash when the hash table is filled up with SV mode because the hash tables will be generated totally differently. Of course if would be nice if Rybka 4 would automatically understand this and clear the hash automatically, but most likely the generated hash from SV mode would have been useful for persistent hash usage which was removed from the final version. Anyway if you want to do what you were explaining in your thread, just clear hash before switching to MV mode. It would take about a second or two.
Other engines are capable of remembering hash contents of SPV moves when going to MPV, Rybka may stall for 40 hours, it seems like a clear bug.
This is a clear bug. A huge bug, no doubt about it.
That's what I've been saying, some members cannot even do they usual analysis, as the engine would stall.
Another proof of the bug is that after hitting, the nodes per second reported will sky-rocket, to the high 800, etc. which is clearly abnormal behavior.

Thank you guys for finding this bug. I will purchase as soon as this bug is fixed.
You'll probably have to wait a couple years for Rybka 5, though!
What's another year ...or two. :-)
> What's another year ..
Most likely a year :)
Are you taking bets?? :)
No :)
Rybka 5 might only come when Vas comes crying that his online project didn't work.
Otherwise,, we might not see a Rybka 5.It was enough hard to get out this terrible Rybka 4, like squeezing water from a stone.
However, perhaps Rybka 5 might come more easily. as soon as his online gets going well. In fact, I'm sure that Rybka 5 is here already, perhaps has been for a long time. It needs about 4 days for beta testing, and then it will be on the market.
There might just be a few bugs, to make people buy Rybka 6.

> Rybka 5 might only come when Vas comes crying that his online project didn't work.
I don't know. Things are going to get really interesting when the online project gets underway! It'll be exciting just to see how it's set up, the level of interest, whether it works or not, etc.
I personally look really forward to online Rybka. I plan to buy n instances of the cheapest UCI compatible version to use with IDeA interactive analysis. The renting time will be short (eg. one hour). For over night analysis I will still use my old R3 (or perhaps R4) if it proves better than R3 for IDeA.
This is what I don't understand regarding the usefulness of the online Rybka. If you only buy say an hours worth of time, how could that analysis possibly be better than a couple overnight runs of R3 or R4?
I am glad you asked. The keyword here is 'interactive'. When I work interactively with IDeA I want as much analysis power as possible. If you ever try IDeA with many remote egines (eg. 20+) you will know what I mean.
I've used IDeA a lot, but never with remote engines.
"going to get really interesting"?
I'M not at all looking forward to it. I will not be able to be a part of it, due to cost, and i would be feeling that my own wishes for a great Rybka 4 have been hijacked, for the online version.
If (a personal) Rybka 4 was full strength, then I would be an enthusiastic spectator, online too.
Otherwise, I'm really not i nterested. I just want my own thing, the strongest i can get, and then i will get on with my own life and interests.

> I will not be able to be a part of it, due to cost
I doubt I will either, primarily because I don't really need it. It's not like I'm a professional chess player or anything...

Dont Worry,
I am sure there will very soon be a free Stockfish stronger than Rybka 4 available.
As per will it be stronger than the could Rybka ? I have no clue.
At least, looking at the Cluster Rybka playing, it seems amazinlgy strong.
I would be very interested if the cluster (or rybka 4 or stockfish etc.) would play Spassky's famous (11?)...h5 vs Larsen, with a big plus. I'd be even more astounded if it plays the move before that (10?)....Ng4. If it does, I'd wish to know what it coniders the best replies for White (Larsen). OR if the engine has a stronger continuation that Spassky.
This was absolute genius GM play, and i'm waiting for a machine to do as well.
Larsen Spassky, Belgrade, either 1970 or 1971.

What I find more interesting is move 11...
There Stockfish always picks h7-h5 instantly, seeing it a clear win as it reaches greater depth.
Rybka (Deep Rybka 4) is another story. Most of the times, it picks h7-h5 early on, only to abandon it at or around the depth of 10 (rarely and randomly keeping it). At depth 15 or 16 it either goes back to h7-h5 or, most of the times, for Rh8-g8. Conclusion is, that at the depth of 18, it either has -1.44 h7-h5 move or -1.03 Rh8-g8 one according to its own calculation.
While at the depth of 19 it quite compensates with -1.30 Rd8-d3 vs. -1.51 h7-h5, this "depth mismatch" is still a quite disturbing discovery, if I may say so.

I read more about it since, and it is a confirmed "luck factor" by the author. It is of dubious (read negative) value for analysis, but author claims it has no effect on R4 playing strength (which seems to be confirmed by chess engine rating lists).
Make sure to clear R4 hash and run analysis again (you won't clear hash-table data stored in memory by simply closing the engine; you must either use some memory management utility or restart Windows; or at least let another engine run analysis so that it hopefully over-writes R4's data left in the memory).
To be frank, the first evening I ran the analysis, I got the results very similar to yours (R4 abandoned h5 move only to return to it later). But since then I am unable to reproduce the same result twice. And that is what was and remains a troublesome if now confirmed feature of R4 to me.

The "luck factor" is nothing specific to Rybka. Try other multiprocessor engines and you will see.
OK, theoretical point taken.
But in practice, when I have to choose between Stockfish that has always a "good luck" to pick h7-h5 while R4 only randomly and rarely in that... there seems to be something fishy, even if both engines have something ichthyic to their names :-)

after hitting, the nodes per second reported will sky-rocket, to the high 800, etc. which is clearly abnormal behavior.
I recall hearing that Rybka does not count hash hits in its node per second count. If this is true, than the case where Rybka is getting no hash hits while doing MPV analysis because the hash is full of deep analysis positions from a single PV would result in higher kn/s, even though much less progress is being made because the transposition table is totally dysfunctional in these cases.

how does one clear has in CB GUI w/out restarting the engine?
Clearing the hash is NOT an option. This would throw away all the advantages of interactive MPV analysis. It seems likely that the hash is full of positions that have been analyzed to very deep depths that are preventing other PV lines from storing shallower depths. Dr. Mueller suggested an approach to prevent this from happening a few years ago in discussions with Vas. It involves leaving a number of slots in each hash set open for lower depths.
And this has absolutely nothing to do with MPV non-deterministic behavior.

Assuming this behavior is typical (I'll need to check that first), the problem would be something more crude than that.

I think you are probably right and the deep single PV has filled up the hash and is freezing out the secondary MPV lines, making them take forever to calculate. This might require a change in the algorithm that decides which entries get to stay in hash, and this might need to change when you go into MPV mode. If this is the case, using a larger hash won't prevent the problem, it will just keep it from happening until a little bit later.
Every new entry is always written (or at least should be).

If entries at shallow depth are always written, regardless of the age/depth of what is already in the hash, then either you must be very selective about which new entries are being written, or new entries keep replacing the most recently written entry (which makes the most recent entry of questionable use unless you expect it to be needed immediately). This seems to be a MRU replacement strategy. While it is possible to create scenarios where this is optimal, they tend to be pretty unrealistic...
This is another of the many issues which should be resolved based on a study of distributions rather than with a seat of the pants guestimate:
1) The distribution of read and write requests to the hash, and
2) The distribution of times required to recalculate an entry, based on depth, etc. (i.e. the savings from finding the entry in hash)
Do you know the distribution of how long an entry will be in hash before it is read, before it is overwritten?
It should be possible to come up with good metrics that maximize the probability of finding an entry in hash times the time saved by finding it in hash. I have this suspicion that it's done by trying out a few possibilities in a vast space, and choosing the one that seems to work best.

My hash is 4-way associative and every new entry is written. You could say that 75% of my hash is ordered by depth and 25% by age (or MRU as you put it). I am sure it's not optimal but it doesn't really matter much. Try doubling your hash size once and notice the (lack of) improvement.
> 1) The distribution of read and write requests to the hash, and
Comparable.
> 2) The distribution of times required to recalculate an entry, based on depth, etc. (i.e. the savings from finding the entry in hash)
Something like 2^depth.
> Do you know the distribution of how long an entry will be in hash before it is read, before it is overwritten?
No, I never measured this. We're talking about a couple of Elo difference at most here.

The one thing I did test was associativity, mainly because it's easy to test. 4-way was clearly better than 2-way and 8-way didn't really help much (possibly because it shrinks the MRU part of the hash).
Anyway, this stuff is a lot more interesting in theory than it is important in practice.

I'm not a big theory guy, but here's what I see in practice:
TEST 1
ENGINE: Shallow Rybka
OPTIONS: Always Score Main Move, Display Upper Bounds
MPV: 7
GUI: GUI10
POSITION: Opening Position
ANALYSIS TIME: 1, 7, and 20 Minutes on Q6600 @ 3.55 GHz
VARIABLE: Hash Size (4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024 MB)
REPEATABLE? Yes

The data shows only about 1 ply of difference between largest and smallest hash sizes at 1 minute but a 1-1/4 ply variation in depth reached during the seven minute run (neglecting the 4 and 8 MB hash sizes). Similar results would probably result from other positions. The high variance around the trend line is due to the small set size, which allows important results to be lost even when the hash is not very full. Given the variance in depth as a function of time due to hash size alone, it is reasonable to assume that a better hash policy could net at least a half ply of depth, since it's clear that results are being lost even during short time periods with a large hash.
Changing gears, I guess if you're 4-way set associative, you're back with 4 16-byte hash entries. This would mean that Rybka will continue to run a little faster on i7 systems with one memory channel as opposed to two or three (as Lukas confirmed for the R3 case).
I came across the case where the kn/s go up and no more progress is made a few times as well...

The data shows only about 1 ply of difference between largest and smallest hash sizes at 1 minute but a 1-1/4 ply variation in depth reached during the seven minute run (neglecting the 4 and 8 MB hash sizes). Similar results would probably result from other positions. The high variance around the trend line is due to the small set size, which allows important results to be lost even when the hash is not very full. Given the variance in depth as a function of time due to hash size alone, it is reasonable to assume that a better hash policy could net at least a half ply of depth, since it's clear that results are being lost even during short time periods with a large hash.
Changing gears, I guess if you're 4-way set associative, you're back with 4 16-byte hash entries. This would mean that Rybka will continue to run a little faster on i7 systems with one memory channel as opposed to two or three (as Lukas confirmed for the R3 case).
I came across the case where the kn/s go up and no more progress is made a few times as well...
