Hi all ! I plan to offer some private tools to reuse available data in order to train some nets.

First tool => nnue_eval : https://mega.nz/folder/OtRRlSLZ#ZfmDUuDTI7NIRQcdqcX6SA

Enjoy !

Thanks a lot for your tool! It is very simple to use and I have always wanted to train a net based on pgns but had failed rescoring with different programs. It is great that you shared this.

Thank you very much for the tool that's shared
then, how to convert Plain Text into Bin

My pleasure !

From PLAIN TEXT format to NNUE BIN format, you can use the (LEARN) CONVERT_BIN command from any NODCHIP executables.

Where can I find NODCHIP executables ?...

Hello, is it possible to resume rescoring or not? It says 3 days left and I wont be able to have my laptop that time running.

Hard to say like that ...

Scenario # 1: converting a single large PGN file
The tool is optimized for multitasking so you should split your large PGN file into several small PGN files.

Scenario # 2: converting multiple PGN files simultaneously
It will suffice to move the PGN+PLAIN files that are completed before restarting the process with the remaining PGN files.

There is a backdoor : create a file called override.ini and write the new ending date/time you want (by default the ending date/time is the starting date/time + 1 year). Then you have to move the PGN+PLAIN files that are completed.

Ok thanks, I'll see. Another question, you suggest using multiple small pgns at the same time, but that will create several plain files. Is there a way to merge the plain files? Thanks for your attention and kindness.

yes then you can combine your PLAIN TEXT files by a command like this :
copy /b *_plain.txt big_plain.txt

Second tool => nnue_extract : https://mega.nz/folder/2ohFXYqY#JTLEKhVjypvyTRI5zFPenQ

ENJOY !

Oh ok I had no idea about that. Where do I need to run that command? In the cmd I guess.

yes into a CMD command console.

or you can use this trick :
stockfish.x86-64-bmi2.halfkp_256x2-32-32.profile-learn.2020-08-30.exe
learn convert_bin check_invalid_fen 1 check_illegal_move 1 output_file_name train_me.bin 01_plain.txt
learn convert_bin check_invalid_fen 1 check_illegal_move 1 output_file_name train_me.bin 02_plain.txt
learn convert_bin check_invalid_fen 1 check_illegal_move 1 output_file_name train_me.bin 03_plain.txt
...
quit

But at the end of this, you keep several PLAIN TEXT files but all their data are stored into only one NNUE BIN file.

Ok thats easier for me. Thanks for your help a ton.I wouldnt have realised how to do it on my own.

Third tool => nnue_clean : https://mega.nz/folder/bsp12SpY#RAqR0trXov0XC0pvXvp_-w

ENJOY !
