Vladimir Yelin, (Vladimir Elin)
a Belorussian chess programmer and author of the chess engines Kaissa2 and Patriot.
Kaissa2 is a namesake of Kaissa, the first World Computer Chess Champion
[1],
and evolved to Patriot to become a commercial Arena engine in early 2004
[2].
Sergei S. Markoff mentioned Vladimir Yelin using ideas by Mikhail Botvinnik to determine objects for attack end defence
[3]
[4].
In May 2005, his upcoming new version Patriot 2.0 turned out to be a Fruit/Toga clone
[5]
[6]
[7],
when later investigations revealed the previously assumed innocent [8] Patriot 1 aka later Kaissa versions were based on Crafty with many changes.
Investigator Alexander Schmidt stated that later versions of Kaissa released after the Patriot disaster still have Crafty traces inside [9].
