The cheat part is easy to eliminate: if EI is used, then there is no program and no cheating. Leave the stereoscopic vision out. I can watch a black and white movie with one eye and still recognize Elyzabeth Taylor. I can even watch a black and white picture of her, no grays, with one eye and recognize her. So I propose a minimalist model that abstracts only the causal relation light=>signal and the adjacency relation between pixels, nothing else.
I am not saying this is it. I am saying starting with this, the same I already did, just larger scale and better automation. Then grow. It is a necessary first step anyway. It would help to debug the program that does the IO and minimizes the functional, if anything else.

Sorry, the simplest vision I'm willing to consider is 8-bit gray-scale. The 1-bit monochrome that you describe is too simple and makes it possible to Cheat. Furthermore, it doesn't really help because line art is actually more difficult to draw and interpret because the 3D information needs to be inferred from experience. -- E T F N H E D E D Powers are not rights. ------------------------------------------- AGI Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/18883996-f0d58d57 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?&; d2 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com ------------------------------------------- AGI Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/21088071-c97d2393 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=21088071&id_secret=21088071-2484a968 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
