| | Custom Chess Tokenizer for the Chess Challenge. |
| | |
| | This tokenizer treats each move as a sequence of structured tokens using the extended UCI notation |
| | from the Lichess dataset (e.g., WPe2e4, BNg8f6). |
| | |
| | The dataset format uses: |
| | - W/B prefix for White/Black |
| | - Piece letter: P=Pawn, N=Knight, B=Bishop, R=Rook, Q=Queen, K=King |
| | - Source and destination squares (e.g., e2e4) |
| | - Special suffixes: (x)=capture, (+)=check, (+*)=checkmate, (o)/(O)=castling |
| | |
| | Key design: Component-based tokenization |
| | - Each move is split into meaningful components: [side], [piece], [source], [dest], [modifiers] |
| | - This allows the model to learn chess structure directly |
| | - Vocabulary size: 85 tokens (4 special + 2 sides + 6 pieces + 64 squares + 9 suffixes) |
