How to Set Up Irwin: Your AI-Powered Anti-Cheat Assistant

Sep 16, 2023 | Educational

Welcome to the world of Irwin, an AI that learns cheating patterns, identifies cheaters, and assists moderators in assessing potential cheating cases. Imagine you are a referee in a chess tournament – wouldn’t it be great to have a sidekick that keeps an eye out for dishonest players? Irwin does just that! In this guide, we will walk you through the setup process, dependencies, and troubleshooting tips to get Irwin up and running efficiently.

Dependencies

Before diving into the installation and configuration process, ensure that you have the following dependencies in place. Irwin is compatible with Python 3.x!

Python Libraries

Use the following command to install the necessary Python libraries:

pip3 install pymongo python-chess numpy requests

Additionally, make sure to install TensorFlow by following the tensorflow installation guide.

Database

Irwin relies on MongoDB for data storage. Refer to the mongodb installation guide for setup instructions.

Configuring Irwin

The next step is to create a configuration file named `confconfig.json`. This file contains essential configuration data, including API links, database details, and more.

{
    "api": {
        "url": "https://lichess.org",
        "token": "YOUR_TOKEN_HERE"
    },
    "stockfish": {
        "threads": 4,
        "memory": 2048,
        "nodes": 4500000,
        "update": false
    },
    "db": {
        "host": "localhost",
        "port": 27017,
        "authenticate": false,
        "authentication": {
            "username": "YOUR_USERNAME",
            "password": "YOUR_PASSWORD"
        }
    },
    "irwin": {
        "train": {
            "batchSize": 5000,
            "cycles": 80
        }
    }
}

Replace placeholders like YOUR_TOKEN_HERE, YOUR_USERNAME, and YOUR_PASSWORD with the appropriate values.

Building a Database of Analyzed Players

If you don’t already have a database of analyzed players, you need to analyze a few hundred players to train Irwin’s neural networks. You can do this by running the following command:

python3 main.py --no-assess --no-report

Understanding Irwin’s Structure

Think of Irwin as a team of specialists working in an information center. Each module operates like a unique player, contributing its expertise:

  • modulescore: The statistics master, handling generic data types and database interactions.
  • modulesirwin: The brain behind the operation, where the magic of TensorFlow learning occurs.
  • Env.py: The communicator, managing interactions with Lichess, Irwin, and database handlers.
  • main.py: The strategist, accessing the Lichess API to gather player data and analyze games.

Troubleshooting

If you’re facing issues during installation or functionality, here are some troubleshooting tips:

  • Ensure that all libraries are installed using the correct Python version.
  • Double-check the confconfig.json for syntax errors or missing fields.
  • Verify your MongoDB setup by attempting to connect manually.
  • Monitor error logs for any specific issues related to TensorFlow or Lichess API connections.
