RePAIR: Predictive Self-Supervised Representation Learning in Chess
Researchers have developed a new self-supervised learning architecture called RePAIR, which combines elements of MAE, JEPA, and BERT. This architecture is designed to encode sequential data, such as chess positions, into meaningful representations. Experiments in chess demonstrate that RePAIR can learn concepts and reason about piece movements without reinforcement learning, enabling intuitive analysis of game trajectories. AI
