** The classifier is trained via [[Temporal Difference Learning|temporal difference learning]] to predict whether a [[Moves|move]] will return [[Beta|beta]]
** Classifier considers [[Hash Move|TT move]], [[Killer Move|killers]], [[Moves#Type|move type]], [[Origin Square|from square]], [[Target Square|target square]], [[Captures|capture target]], [[Static Exchange Evaluation|SEE]], target square of last move, [[Check|check]] and changes between forcing and unforcing moves (a capture is more likely after another capture)
** [[Countermove Heuristic]] (Winter 0.3)

** [[Null Move Reductions]]
