Leela Chess Zero, (LCZero, lc0)
an adaption of Gian-Carlo Pascutto's Leela Zero Go project [1] to Chess, using Stockfish's board representation and move generation. No heuristics or prior knowledge are carried over from Stockfish. Leela Chess is open source, released under the terms of GPL version 3 or later, and supports UCI.

The goal is to build a strong UCT chess AI following the same type of deep learning techniques of AlphaZero as described in DeepMind's paper [2], but using distributed training for the weights of the deep residual convolutional neural network. The training process requires CUDA and a GPU accelerated version of Tensorflow installed [3]. As of July 2018, training has changed to require lc0 instead of lczero [4].
