train a net using training data with a
heavier weight on positions having 16 pieces on the board. More specifically,
with a relative weight of `i * (32-i)/(16 * 16)+1` (where i is the number of pieces on the board).
This is done with the trainer branch https://github.com/glinscott/nnue-pytorch/pull/173
The command used is:
```
python train.py $datafile $datafile $restarttype $restartfile --gpus 1 --threads 4 --num-workers 12 --random-fen-skipping=3 --batch-size 16384 --progress_bar_refresh_rate 300 --smart-fen-skipping --features=HalfKAv2_hm^ --lambda=1.00 --max_epochs=$epochs --seed $RANDOM --default_root_dir exp/run_$i
```
The datafile is T60T70wIsRightFarseerT60T74T75T76.binpack, the restart is from the master net.

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 \

--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:

--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.

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 ba01f4b954
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.

combined work by Serio Vieri, Michael Byrne, and Jonathan D (aka SFisGod) based on top of previous developments, by restarts from good nets.
Sergio generated the net https://tests.stockfishchess.org/api/nn/nn-d8609abe8caf.nnue:
The initial net nn-d8609abe8caf.nnue is trained by generating around 16B of training data from the last master net nn-9e3c6298299a.nnue, then trained, continuing from the master net, with lambda=0.2 and sampling ratio of 1. Starting with LR=2e-3, dropping LR with a factor of 0.5 until it reaches LR=5e-4. in_scaling is set to 361. No other significant changes made to the pytorch trainer.

PyTorch trainer command (Note that this only trains for 20 epochs, repeatedly train until convergence):

See https://github.com/sergiovieri/Stockfish/tree/tools_mod/rl for the scripts used to generate data.
Based on that Michael generated nn-76a8a7ffb820.nnue in the following way:

Each set was concatenated together - making one large Wrong_NNUE 2 binpack and one large Training so the were approximately equal in size. They were then interleaved together. The idea was to give Wrong_NNUE.binpack closer to equal weighting with the Training_Data binpack
model.py modifications:
loss = torch.pow(torch.abs(p - q), 2.6).mean()
LR = 8.0e-5 calculated as follows: 1.5e-3*(.992^360) - the idea here was to take a highly trained net and just use all.binpack as a finishing micro refinement touch for the last 2 Elo or so. This net was discovered on the 59th epoch.
optimizer = ranger.Ranger(train_params, betas=(.90, 0.999), eps=1.0e-7, gc_loc=False, use_gc=False)
scheduler = torch.optim.lr_scheduler.StepLR(optimizer, step_size=1, gamma=0.992)
For this micro optimization, I had set the period to "5" in train.py. This changes the checkpoint output so that every 5th checkpoint file is created
The final touches were to adjust the NNUE scale, as was done by Jonathan in tests running at the same time.

Setting: ck values are default based on how large the parameters are
The new values for this net are the raw values at the end of the tuning (80k games)
The significant changes are in buckets 1 and 2 (5-12 pieces) so the main difference is in playing endgames if we compare it to nn-33c9. There is also change in bucket 7 (29-32 pieces) but not as substantial as the changes in buckets 1 and 2. If we interpret the changes based on an experiment a few months ago, this new net plays more optimistically during endgames and less optimistically during openings.

This net is the result of training on data used by the Leela project. More precisely,
we shuffled T60 and T74 data kindly provided by borg (for different Tnn, the data is
a result of Leela selfplay with differently sized Leela nets).
The data is available at vondele's google drive:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1mftuzYdl9o6tBaceR3d_VBQIrgKJsFpl.
The Leela data comes in small chunks of .binpack files. To shuffle them, we simply
used a small python script to randomly rename the files, and then concatenated them
using `cat`. As validation data we picked a file of T60 data. We will further investigate
T74 data.
The training for the NNUE architecture used 200 epochs with the Python trainer from
the Stockfish project. Unlike the previous run we tried with this data, this run does
not have adjusted scaling — not because we didn't want to, but because we forgot.
However, this training randomly skips 40% more positions than previous run. The loss
was very spiky and decreased slower than it does usually.

This simplification patch implements two changes:
1. it simplifies away the so-called "lazy" path in the NNUE evaluation internals,
where we trusted the psqt head alone to avoid the costly "positional" head in
some cases;
2. it raises a little bit the NNUEThreshold1 in evaluate.cpp (from 682 to 800),
which increases the limit where we switched from NNUE eval to Classical eval.
Both effects increase the number of positional evaluations done by our new net
architecture, but the results of our tests below seem to indicate that the loss
of speed will be compensated by the gain of eval quality.

Definition of the lazy threshold moved to evaluate.cpp where all others are.
Lazy threshold only used for real searches, not used for the "eval" call.
This preserves the purity of NNUE evaluation, which is useful to verify
consistency between the engine and the NNUE trainer.

Our new nets output two values for the side to move in the last layer.
We can interpret the first value as a material evaluation of the
position, and the second one as the dynamic, positional value of the
location of pieces.
This patch changes the balance for the (materialist, positional) parts
of the score from (128, 128) to (121, 135) when the piece material is
equal between the two players, but keeps the standard (128, 128) balance
when one player is at least an exchange up.

This PR adds an ability to export any currently loaded network.
The export_net command now takes an optional filename parameter.
If the loaded net is not the embedded net the filename parameter is required.
Two changes were required to support this:
* the "architecture" string, which is really just a some kind of description in the net, is now saved into netDescription on load and correctly saved on export.
* the AffineTransform scrambles weights for some architectures and sparsifies them, such that retrieving the index is hard. This is solved by having a temporary scrambled<->unscrambled index lookup table when loading the network, and the actual index is saved for each individual weight that makes it to canSaturate16. This increases the size of the canSaturate16 entries by 6 bytes.

Include scaling change as suggested by Dietrich Kappe,
the one who trained net for Komodo. According to him,
some nets may require different scaling in order to utilize its full strength.
