The other thing you can do to evaluate the strength of two different engines above the start position is drawn threshold is compare their results against other weaker engines that are below that threshold and see which wins more. If you have some kind of fixed system of doing this then the rating scale you create isn't absolute, it's strictly based on your system/opening selection. If you do this a lot then the amount of games required to accurately rate the engines becomes infinite. So the issue with engine ratings is then if you use this method every time you give the engines a draw/draw opening you're converging their ratings. The idea is the stronger engine will win with white and then in the reverse match will draw with black, thus proving there is a different in strength between it and the other engine. If the starting position is for example +0.3 and 99.99% draw then you select a position to start from that's, again for example, +1.3 and 50% draw, 50% white win. Over a certain engine strength chess played from the starting position is essentially a guaranteed draw.įor that reason computer chess tournaments use hand picked openings that seek to have the maximum uncertainty in the result.
