in general, how do we indicate the odd one out of that set?  Sure it's
"obvious" that the color is important in this case - but I see two circles
and that the square is more similar to the circle(s) because of the higher
number of sides.  Therefor the triangle is the "odd one."

What rules does an evolving neural net use for determining the pattern in
order to determine the exception to the pattern?

The training set should have problems of (at least) two forms to test my
hypotheses:
(1) after 'hearing' a sequence of pulses, reproduce them, and (2) after
being presented with several images (e.g. red circle, red square, red
triangle, green circle), indicate the odd one out. Being able to do either
of them should show I'm on to something.
Is that any help? I was reluctant to give too much away because it's a
rather far fetched concept, but as you can see, the neurons have to be
capable of doing a lot. I think I can justify taking this one of many
options in neural networks, if only because no-one seems to have let the
neurons themselves compete before.
