Leela Chess Zero
(also known as Lc0, LCZero, and Leela) is an open-source neural network (NN)-based chess engine. The Lc0 project was announced in early 2018, and Gary Linscott (a developer for Stockfish) has led the development. Because of its free and open-source nature, it can be run on many platforms, including Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and Ubuntu. Lc0 is the strongest NN engine available to the public. Lc0 is strongly inspired by DeepMind's AlphaZero project and learned the game in the same fashion. Unlike conventional chess engines, Leela was only given the rules of the game of chess and became incredibly strong by using reinforcement learning from repeated self-play-as of 2020 it has played over 300 million games against itself. According to the September 2020 Computer Chess Rating List (CCRL), Leela is the second-highest rated chess engine in the world with a rating of 3462, only slightly behind Stockfish. Leela Chess Zero Accomplishments Since stepping onto the scene in 2018, Leela has had increasingly impressive results in a very short time. After a few months it was at grandmaster strength, and in September 2018 Leela placed third out of 24 powerful engines in the 2018 Chess.com Computer Chess Championship tournament. In December 2018 Leela placed second in season 14 of the Top Chess Engine Championship (TCEC). It lost to Stockfish in the Superfinal by a score of 50.5 - 49.5, but the Lc0-Stockfish rivalry was only beginning. In February 2019 Leela defeated Houdini in the second TCEC cup final to earn its first major tournament victory-the first NN engine to win. In May 2019 Leela won the third TCEC cup after defeating Stockfish in the final. It also won the Superfinal of the 15th TCEC season, again defeating Stockfish. In TCEC's 17th season, held from January-April 2020, Leela again won the championship after it defeated Stockfish in the final. In April 2020 Leela won the 13th Chess.com Computer Chess Championship, defeating Stockfish 106-94 in the 200-game final.
