(Greetings from The On-Line Encyclopedia of Bongard Problems!)
BP1205 Bongard Problems in which slight deformations (but perhaps across a large area) of examples can switch their sorting vs. Bongard Problems in which examples deformed slightly enough remain sorted the same way.

COMMENTS

Left examples have the keyword "deformunstable" on the OEBP.

Right examples have the keyword "deformstable" on the OEBP.


For the purposes of this Bongard Problem, a "slight deformation" is a way of dragging the details of an image around which is relatively uniform in any local area and moves each point at most an arbitrarily small distance. More precise definitions could be made using mathematics.


In a "deformstable" Bongard Problem, no slight deformation should outright flip an example's sorting. It is allowed for a slight deformation to make an example sorted slightly more ambiguously.
