Description

I have a scatterplot of randomly sampled algorithm configurations:

It's difficult to see what happens with all the closely aligned points at the left. To better understand where the optimum lies, I'd like to have the ability to add a trendline (2nd degree polynomial function).

Research direction

The issue names no file, test, or entry point. Start by locating the scatterplot implementation in the TypeScript project and tracing how sampled algorithm configurations are rendered. Done means users can add a second-degree polynomial trendline and use it to inspect where the optimum lies, with the existing scatterplot behavior preserved.
