How to visualize K-MAPS analysis

#2

Can someone explain more precisely how to enable this feature? (Cramling's video was very good and helpful, by the way!)

You just have to install LiChess Tools, go to the user menu top-right side in Lichess and click LiChess Tools, then type "k-maps" in the filter, then enable it. You're done.

I would be grateful to have a visualization (graph) indicating material, king safety, etc.

Any particular position (until checkmate, stalemate, repetition draw, etc.) can in theory be visualized as a radar graph. For example, if using Stockfish one could graph https://hxim.github.io/Stockfish-Evaluation-Guide/ factors (piece values, mobility, threats, etc.) from the position at the end of the PV (principal variation).

Also of some interest is how those factors may shift from the current position to the end of the PV (for example, are we gaining material but losing king safety) however Stockfish doesn't allow evaluation of the current position if the player is in check.

@Toadofsky I don't understand exactly. Would you want when you mouse over or maybe click on the K-MAPS to see a radar chart of the 5 values or do you want a line chart for the entire game ? I warn you people already complain about too many lines in the game chart :D

I'm not sure; I'd have to see it to know what I want, although I have 3 ideas...
a) more lines on the evaluation chart
b) parametric N-dimensional graph (why should time be the x-axis?)
c) for an individual position, radar graph evaluation showing current evaluation and trend

I'll blog about this; popular metrics are grossly deficient for data mining purposes.

Can't wait! But I will probably disagree.
