This is a report of the 'TCEC Cup 1' computational experiment, the first TCEC knockout event and the second major part of TCEC’s 13th season. It featured the best 32 engines of ‘TCEC 13’ and the games were held at Blitz tempo, The different format called for different optimal settings in the engines, thereby enabling a comparison with performance at slower tempi. This event notably featured the first appearance of two non-Shannon-AB, neural-network/MCTS engines, DEUS X and LEELA CHESS ZERO. LC0 notably was a quarter-finalist, having started as 21st seed. STOCKFISH beat HOUDINI in the final with the sole win, remarkably, a short and dramatic game. All decisive games in the supplementary data have been played out by FRITZ17 at search depth 24 to benchmark endgame practice.

TCEC杯1

这是“TCEC Cup 1”计算实验的报告，第一次TCEC淘汰赛和TCEC第13个赛季的第二个主要部分。它采用了'TCEC 13'最好的32个引擎，比赛以闪电战的节奏进行，不同的格式要求引擎中不同的优化设置，从而可以与较慢的节奏下的性能进行比较。此次活动的特色是首次亮相的两个非香农 AB、神经网络/MCTS 引擎 DEUS X 和 LEELA CHESS ZERO。LC0 以 21 号种子的身份开始进入四分之一决赛。STOCKFISH在决赛中以唯一的胜利击败了胡迪尼，这是一场短暂而戏剧性的比赛。补充数据中的所有决定性比赛都由 FRITZ17 在搜索深度 24 下进行，以基准残局练习。
