Pytorch load model from tensorflow .ckpt and play: Mismatch and Performance Issue with b18c384nbt model_pytorch and Checkpoint File about katago HOT 2 OPEN

You are loading the model the wrong way. You're not supposed to guess what config to use, the checkpoint file itself contains the correct config.
See for example the proper way to load the model: https://github.com/lightvector/KataGo/blob/master/python/load_model.py#L36-L55

This is because for any network architecture, there are many small options that can be configured, see https://github.com/lightvector/KataGo/blob/master/python/modelconfigs.py#L1401-L1504. Usually a network will be using some combination of these options, so you don't want to guess, you just want to trust the config inside the checkpoint itself.

Great! Thank you very much for pointing out the correct approach to loading the model. Your guidance clarifies the importance of using the configuration embedded within the checkpoint file itself, rather than attempting to deduce or manually adjust the configuration. Thanks!
