Clean up and simplify some nnue code.
Remove some unnecessary code and it's execution during inference. Also the change on line 49 in nnue_architecture.h results in a more efficient SIMD code path through ClippedReLU::propagate(). passed STC: https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/6217d3bfda649bba32ef25d5 LLR: 2.94 (-2.94,2.94) <-2.25,0.25> Total: 12056 W: 3281 L: 3092 D: 5683 Ptnml(0-2): 55, 1213, 3312, 1384, 64 passed STC SMP: https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/6217f344da649bba32ef295e LLR: 2.94 (-2.94,2.94) <-2.25,0.25> Total: 27376 W: 7295 L: 7137 D: 12944 Ptnml(0-2): 52, 2859, 7715, 3003, 59 closes https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/3944 No functional change bench: 6820724 |

Update architecture to "SFNNv4". Update network to nn-6877cd24400e.nnue.
Architecture: The diagram of the "SFNNv4" architecture: https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/8037982/153455685-cbe3a038-e158-4481-844d-9d5fccf5c33a.png The most important architectural changes are the following: * 1024x2 [activated] neurons are pairwise, elementwise multiplied (not quite pairwise due to implementation details, see diagram), which introduces a non-linearity that exhibits similar benefits to previously tested sigmoid activation (quantmoid4), while being slightly faster. * The following layer has therefore 2x less inputs, which we compensate by having 2 more outputs. It is possible that reducing the number of outputs might be beneficial (as we had it as low as 8 before). The layer is now 1024->16. * The 16 outputs are split into 15 and 1. The 1-wide output is added to the network output (after some necessary scaling due to quantization differences). The 15-wide is activated and follows the usual path through a set of linear layers. The additional 1-wide output is at least neutral, but has shown a slightly positive trend in training compared to networks without it (all 16 outputs through the usual path), and allows possibly an additional stage of lazy evaluation to be introduced in the future. Additionally, the inference code was rewritten and no longer uses a recursive implementation. This was necessitated by the splitting of the 16-wide intermediate result into two, which was impossible to do with the old implementation with ugly hacks. This is hopefully overall for the better. First session: The first session was training a network from scratch (random initialization). The exact trainer used was slightly different (older) from the one used in the second session, but it should not have a measurable effect. The purpose of this session is to establish a strong network base for the second session. Small deviations in strength do not harm the learnability in the second session. The training was done using the following command: python3 train.py \ /home/sopel/nnue/nnue-pytorch-training/data/nodes5000pv2_UHO.binpack \ /home/sopel/nnue/nnue-pytorch-training/data/nodes5000pv2_UHO.binpack \ --gpus "$3," \ --threads 4 \ --num-workers 4 \ --batch-size 16384 \ --progress_bar_refresh_rate 20 \ --random-fen-skipping 3 \ --features=HalfKAv2_hm^ \ --lambda=1.0 \ --gamma=0.992 \ --lr=8.75e-4 \ --max_epochs=400 \ --default_root_dir ../nnue-pytorch-training/experiment_$1/run_$2 Every 20th net was saved and its playing strength measured against some baseline at 25k nodes per move with pure NNUE evaluation (modified binary). The exact setup is not important as long as it's consistent. The purpose is to sift good candidates from bad ones. The dataset can be found https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UQdZN_LWQ265spwTBwDKo0t1WjSJKvWY/view Second session: The second training session was done starting from the best network (as determined by strength testing) from the first session. It is important that it's resumed from a .pt model and NOT a .ckpt model. The conversion can be performed directly using serialize.py The LR schedule was modified to use gamma=0.995 instead of gamma=0.992 and LR=4.375e-4 instead of LR=8.75e-4 to flatten the LR curve and allow for longer training. The training was then running for 800 epochs instead of 400 (though it's possibly mostly noise after around epoch 600). The training was done using the following command: The training was done using the following command: python3 train.py \ /data/sopel/nnue/nnue-pytorch-training/data/T60T70wIsRightFarseerT60T74T75T76.binpack \ /data/sopel/nnue/nnue-pytorch-training/data/T60T70wIsRightFarseerT60T74T75T76.binpack \ --gpus "$3," \ --threads 4 \ --num-workers 4 \ --batch-size 16384 \ --progress_bar_refresh_rate 20 \ --random-fen-skipping 3 \ --features=HalfKAv2_hm^ \ --lambda=1.0 \ --gamma=0.995 \ --lr=4.375e-4 \ --max_epochs=800 \ --resume-from-model /data/sopel/nnue/nnue-pytorch-training/data/exp295/nn-epoch399.pt \ --default_root_dir ../nnue-pytorch-training/experiment_$1/run_$run_id In particular note that we now use lambda=1.0 instead of lambda=0.8 (previous nets), because tests show that WDL-skipping introduced by vondele performs better with lambda=1.0. Nets were being saved every 20th epoch. In total 16 runs were made with these settings and the best nets chosen according to playing strength at 25k nodes per move with pure NNUE evaluation - these are the 4 nets that have been put on fishtest. The dataset can be found either at ftp://ftp.chessdb.cn/pub/sopel/data_sf/T60T70wIsRightFarseerT60T74T75T76.binpack in its entirety (download might be painfully slow because hosted in China) or can be assembled in the following way: Get the https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/blob/5640ad48ae5881223b868362c1cbeb042947f7b4/script/interleave_binpacks.py script.

New NNUE architecture and net
Introduces a new NNUE network architecture and associated network parameters The summary of the changes: * Position for each perspective mirrored such that the king is on e..h files. Cuts the feature transformer size in half, while preserving enough knowledge to be good. See https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gTlrr02qSNKiXNZ_SuO4-RjK4MXBiFlLE6jvNqqMkAY/edit#heading=h.b40q4rb1w7on. * The number of neurons after the feature transformer increased two-fold, to 1024x2. This is possibly mostly due to the now very optimized feature transformer update code. * The number of neurons after the second layer is reduced from 16 to 8, to reduce the speed impact. This, perhaps surprisingly, doesn't harm the strength much. See https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gTlrr02qSNKiXNZ_SuO4-RjK4MXBiFlLE6jvNqqMkAY/edit#heading=h.6qkocr97fezq The AffineTransform code did not work out-of-the box with the smaller number of neurons after the second layer, so some temporary changes have been made to add a special case for InputDimensions == 8. Also additional 0 padding is added to the output for some archs that cannot process inputs by <=8 (SSE2, NEON). VNNI uses an implementation that can keep all outputs in the registers while reducing the number of loads by 3 for each 16 inputs, thanks to the reduced number of output neurons. However GCC is particularily bad at optimization here (and perhaps why the current way the affine transform is done even passed sprt) (see https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gTlrr02qSNKiXNZ_SuO4-RjK4MXBiFlLE6jvNqqMkAY/edit# for details) and more work will be done on this in the following days. I expect the current VNNI implementation to be improved and extended to other architectures. The network was trained with a slightly modified version of the pytorch trainer (https://github.com/glinscott/nnue-pytorch); the changes are in https://github.com/glinscott/nnue-pytorch/pull/143 The training utilized 2 datasets. dataset A - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VlhnHL8f-20AXhGkILujnNXHwy9T-MQw/view?usp=sharing dataset B - as described in https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/commit/ba01f4b95448bcb324755f4dd2a632a57c6e67bc The training process was as following: train on dataset A for 350 epochs, take the best net in terms of elo at 20k nodes per move (it's fine to take anything from later stages of training). convert the .ckpt to .pt --resume-from-model from the .pt file, train on dataset B for <600 epochs, take the best net. Lambda=0.8, applied before the loss function.

Cleanup and simplify NNUE code.
A lot of optimizations happend since the NNUE was introduced and since then some parts of the code were left unused. This got to the point where asserts were have to be made just to let people know that modifying something will not have any effects or may even break everything due to the assumptions being made. Removing these parts removes those inexisting "false dependencies". Additionally: * append_changed_indices now takes the king pos and stateinfo explicitly, no more misleading pos parameter * IndexList is removed in favor of a generic ValueList. Feature transformer just instantiates the type it needs. * The update cost and refresh requirement is deferred to the feature set once again, but now doesn't go through the whole FeatureSet machinery and just calls HalfKP directly. * accumulator no longer has a singular dimension. * The PS constants and the PieceSquareIndex array are made local to the HalfKP feature set because they are specific to it and DO differ for other feature sets. * A few names are changed to more descriptive Passed STC non-regression: https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/608421dd95e7f1852abd2790 LLR: 2.95 (-2.94,2.94) <-2.50,0.50> Total: 180008 W: 16186 L: 16258 D: 147564 Ptnml(0-2): 587, 12593, 63725, 12503, 596 closes https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/3441 No functional change |

Add NNUE evaluation
This patch ports the efficiently updatable neural network (NNUE) evaluation to Stockfish. Both the NNUE and the classical evaluations are available, and can be used to assign a value to a position that is later used in alpha-beta (PVS) search to find the best move. The classical evaluation computes this value as a function of various chess concepts, handcrafted by experts, tested and tuned using fishtest. The NNUE evaluation computes this value with a neural network based on basic inputs. The network is optimized and trained on the evalutions of millions of positions at moderate search depth. The NNUE evaluation was first introduced in shogi, and ported to Stockfish afterward. It can be evaluated efficiently on CPUs, and exploits the fact that only parts of the neural network need to be updated after a typical chess move. [The nodchip repository](https://github.com/nodchip/Stockfish) provides additional tools to train and develop the NNUE networks. This patch is the result of contributions of various authors, from various communities, including: nodchip, ynasu87, yaneurao (initial port and NNUE authors), domschl, FireFather, rqs, xXH4CKST3RXx, tttak, zz4032, joergoster, mstembera, nguyenpham, erbsenzaehler, dorzechowski, and vondele. This new evaluation needed various changes to fishtest and the corresponding infrastructure, for which tomtor, ppigazzini, noobpwnftw, daylen, and vondele are gratefully acknowledged. The first networks have been provided by gekkehenker and sergiovieri, with the latter net (nn-97f742aaefcd.nnue) being the current default. The evaluation function can be selected at run time with the `Use NNUE` (true/false) UCI option, provided the `EvalFile` option points the the network file (depending on the GUI, with full path). The performance of the NNUE evaluation relative to the classical evaluation depends somewhat on the hardware, and is expected to improve quickly, but is currently on > 80 Elo on fishtest: 60000 @ 10+0.1 th 1 https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/5f28fe6ea5abc164f05e4c4c ELO: 92.77 +-2.1 (95%) LOS: 100.0% Total: 60000 W: 24193 L: 8543 D: 27264 Ptnml(0-2): 609, 3850, 9708, 10948, 4885 40000 @ 20+0.2 th 8 https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/5f290229a5abc164f05e4c58 ELO: 89.47 +-2.0 (95%) LOS: 100.0% Total: 40000 W: 12756 L: 2677 D: 24567 Ptnml(0-2): 74, 1583, 8550, 7776, 2017 At the same time, the impact on the classical evaluation remains minimal, causing no significant regression: sprt @ 10+0.1 th 1 https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/5f2906a2a5abc164f05e4c5b LLR: 2.94 (-2.94,2.94) {-6.00,-4.00} Total: 34936 W: 6502 L: 6825 D: 21609 Ptnml(0-2): 571, 4082, 8434, 3861, 520 sprt @ 60+0.6 th 1 https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/5f2906cfa5abc164f05e4c5d LLR: 2.93 (-2.94,2.94) {-6.00,-4.00} Total: 10088 W: 1232 L: 1265 D: 7591 Ptnml(0-2): 49, 914, 3170, 843, 68 The needed networks can be found at https://tests.stockfishchess.org/nns It is recommended to use the default one as indicated by the `EvalFile` UCI option.
