'''Arminius''',<br/>
a chess engine by [[Volker Annuss]], which is a complete restructured successor of [[Hermann]] <ref>[http://www.csvn.nl/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=517%3Apandix-wint-open-nk&catid=51%3Atoernooien&Itemid=28&lang=en Pandix wins Dutch Open], [[CSVN]] site, October 22, 2011</ref>.
Both engines, Hermann and Arminius use a [[Neural Networks|neural network]] to calculate a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability probability] how likely it is in [[Iterative Deepening|iterative deepening]] that the [[Best Move|best move]] will change when searching one [[Ply|ply]] [[Depth|deeper]].
They both use properties of the [[Chess Position|position]] and results from previous iterations that are correlated with a change in the best move in the next iteration.
Arminius also considers relative [[Node|node]] counts <ref>[http://www.talkchess.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=47242&start=17 Re: "panic time" and "easy moves"] by [[Volker Annuss]], [[CCC]], February 17, 2013</ref>.
Arminius' tournament debut was the [[DOCCC 2011]]. Arminius 2017, the version that won the third place at [[PT 51]], is using its own format of 6-men WDL [[Endgame Bitbases|endgame bitbases]] <ref>[[Gerd Isenberg|editor's]] personal communication with [[Volker Annuss]] at [[PT 51]], April 30, 2017</ref>.
In August 2017, Arminius started to practice [[Magic Bitboards#BlackMagics|Black Magic]] <ref>[http://www.talkchess.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=64790&start=14 Re: Black magic bitboards] by [[Volker Annuss]], [[CCC]], August 04, 2017</ref>.
