Rybka's Monte Carlo Analysis revisited

6/26/2009 – Readers to the rescue! Several columns ago we took a close look at the new analysis feature of the program Rybka. Today our ChessBase Workshop columnist dips into his mailbag for some clarifications and corrections sent in by our loyal readers. You can find out what needed fixing in the original article by checking out the latest Workshop.

Rybka's Monte Carlo analysis

2/3/2009 – It's the ChessBase Workshop that readers have been clamoring for – an exploration of the new Monte Carlo Analysis feature of Rybka3. In this function the program plays a large number of very fast games against itself, and comes up with a unique evaluation of the position. It's not as complicated as you might think – find out all about it in the newest Workshop.

New Rybka analysis tools

1/25/2009 – One of the "old standards" in the area of positional analysis is the ability to show the next best move (or even multiple lines of play). But there's a "tradeoff": displaying multiple variations slows down the engine's analysis. The Rybka software contains a new feature which presents the user with more control over this process. You can learn all about it in our latest ChessBase Workshop.

Rybka's shared analysis

1/9/2009 – Shared Analysis -- what is it? Is it two players conspiring in the tournament hall rest room? Maybe Allwerman's back with a new computer? Try neither -- it's a new analysis mode in the Rybka3 packages which involves a pair of "twin" chess engines analyzing simultaneously. You can learn more about it in the latest ChessBase Workshop.

Handicapping Rybka 3

1/7/2009 – Chess programmers have for many years been finding unique means of "handicapping" their chess engines to make them play a weaker chess game should the human user desire one. The reason for this should be obvious: not everyone enjoys getting his or her head torn off by a 2700+ Elo player on a daily basis. Learn all about Rybka's handicap playing features in the newest ChessBase Workshop.
