gnubg-nn

11 September 2026

gnubg-nn provides Python bindings to the GNU Backgammon neural-network evaluation engine — the position-evaluation nets, not the full backgammon game (no GUI or match play). It’s currently in alpha.

  • A Trainer class for training your own neural networks.
  • A self-play training pipeline, with gnubg-nn-download and gnubg-nn-buildnet console tools.
  • Works on Linux, macOS (Apple Silicon), and Windows, Python 3.10–3.13.

Install it with pip:

pip install gnubg-nn
