Open Source Libraries

Beyond its much publicized success in attaining superhuman level at games such as Chess and Go, DeepMind's AlphaZero algorithm illustrates a more general methodology of combining learning and search to explore large combinatorial spaces effectively. We believe that this methodology can have exciting applications in many different research areas. Because AlphaZero is resource-hungry, successful open-source implementations (such as Leela Zero) are written in low-level languages (such as C++) and optimized for highly distributed computing environments. This makes them hardly accessible for students, researchers and hackers. Many simple Python implementations can be found on Github, but none of them is able to beat a reasonable baseline on games such as Othello or Connect Four. As an illustration, the benchmark in the README of the most popular of them only features a random baseline, along with a greedy baseline that does not appear to be significantly stronger.

This library is an attempt to create a flexible chess engine using the Java programing language. The main diference than others chess engine's is that it is only a library, and it can be attached to any program, including a web application. If you are interested to contribute please contact me.

C/CIF is an interchange format for chess applications. This format is supporting all features of a chess application - PGN does not provide this - and can be used to transfer chess archives without any loss via an application independent format. C/CIF is supporting two formats: the binary format CCIF, and the human readable format CIF (in XML).

CSChessControls contains chess controls for Windows Forms Application. Source code is open and free to use. Developed in C#.Avaliable controls are ; ChessBoard , CapturedPiecesControl, ChessTimer, FischerTimer

Logic Assistant is a framework which enables creating logic circuits, simulating them, creating questions from them and applying to students as a contest or examination. It is developed on .Net C# and works on network over web services.

NeuroDraughts is a Draughts/Checkers game that teaches itself how to play through self play. It combines an Artificial Neural Network, trained by Temporal Difference Learning using some Genetic Algorithm style behaviour.

Board2D.js is a JavaScript library that allows you to quickly develop 2D board games for the web. It is extremely easy to use and contains a very rich API. Download the ZIP, and extract it to a folder. Inside it, the "lib" folder contains the javascript library file. You can include it in your projects as-is. For an example of how to use the library, you can find two mini samples of tic-tac-toe and chess in the examples directory. There is no API manual currently, but if you use an editor like Brackets, it will show you the list of functions. Just do not call the functions which start with "__" as those are meant for internal use by the library itself. There is a readme file included in the ZIP which shall get you started.
