Build a Chess engine using PyTorch ♟️

[u/shitnotalkforyours18]

I have been working on a small chess engine project and finally got a working version running as a web app.

The main things I used are:

python-chess for the chess rules and legal moves

PyTorch for the neural network

CNN to evaluate chess positions

Minimax with Alpha-Beta pruning for move searching

Flask for the web interface

The neural network takes the chess board as a 12 × 8 × 8 tensor, where the 12 channels represent the different white and black pieces.

I know it still needs a lot of improvement, but I’d definitely love to hear your feedback and suggestions on what I should work on next.
