# Chess Move Prediction on Lichess Puzzle Database (held-out positions) Source: [Chess Move Prediction on Lichess Puzzle Database (held-out positions)]() Collection index: [llms.txt]() Data updated: 2026-05-14T06:55:00.603Z Evaluation of model performance on predicting optimal chess moves using held-out positions from the Lichess Puzzle Database. A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage. | Scope | Recorded value | | --- | --- | | Task | Chess Move Prediction | | Dataset (including any stated split) | Lichess Puzzle Database (held-out positions) | | Metric | Top-1 Accuracy | | Unit | PERCENT | | Direction | Higher is better | | Results loaded | 6 of 6 | | Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark | Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol. ## Metrics - [Top-1 Accuracy](): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT. - [Elo Rating](): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR. - [Coverage](): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT. ## Recorded results | Method | Top-1 Accuracy | Result date | Report paper | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | VPS | 54.5 | Not recorded | 6a05570cdbc836b87d828c09 | | SFT + GRPO | 54.1 | Not recorded | 6a05570cdbc836b87d828c09 | | VPS | 53.6 | Not recorded | 6a05570cdbc836b87d828c09 | | SFT + GRPO | 53.4 | Not recorded | 6a05570cdbc836b87d828c09 | | SFT only | 21.5 | Not recorded | 6a05570cdbc836b87d828c09 | | SFT only | 21.2 | Not recorded | 6a05570cdbc836b87d828c09 | ### VPS Top-1 Accuracy: 54.5.
