You ask a lot of questions but you do not give positions to demonsrate what you mean. It may be better if for every question you give a position so people can check how programs do. things like initiative advantage are too abstract and maybe position when this is the only advantage may explain better what you mean and what is the difference between it and space or developement advantage. I do not think that there is a known definition for all the term(a good definition means that you have an algorithm to calculate if one side has the advantage(material or pawn structure are simple to calculate but I have no idea what exactly you mean in the other things).
