Hello people,

Today, I've got one idea in my mind.  Do you have any opinion or interest
for this?

Nupic uses scalar encoder to feed numbers to SP, IIUC.

If we want to feed an image to SP, each pixel has an integer value and
the number of pixels are large.  It sounds not so easy to me that we convert
million pixel values through scalar encoder and feed them to SP.

Can dithering work as the encoder?  I mean this.

Our brain recognizes a black & white binary image as if it is a grayscale
image
after dithering.  Does our retina convey the intensity of light in a
similar way of
dithering...?

# I was a bit away from ML due to a business trip.  I hope I can be more
active now. :)

Best Regards,
    Hideaki Suzuki.
