BP874 Solution is a quantity comparison vs. solution does not involve quantity.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
CROSSREFS

See BP873 for comparisons based on discrete quantities vs. comparisons based on continuous quantities. All examples in that Bongard Problem fit left here.


Similar to BP200 with sides flipped--however, "Bongard Problem based on quantity" is a more general criterion than "Bongard Problem based on discrete counting."

BP875 Problem would sort all relevant examples vs. possible objects similar to those seen on both sides would have no clear sorting.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Left examples partition a pool of objects cleanly into two classes.

BP876 Precise sorting of potential examples vs. not so.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Left Bongard Problems do not have to sort all relevant examples; if they would leave some border cases unsorted, it just has to be clear precisely which examples those would be.


Often a precise divide between values on a spectrum comes from intuitively "crossing a threshold." For example, there is an intuitive threshold between acute and obtuse angles. Two sides of a Bongard Problem on opposite ends of a threshold, coming close to it, are interpreted as having precise divide between sides, right up against that threshold.

BP877 "Less than vs. greater than" (or vice versa) vs. "equal to vs. greater than" (or less than).
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Left examples are quantity-comparison Problems in which the dividing point on the spectrum separating the sides lands between them. Right examples are quantity-comparison Problems in which the dividing point is the entirety of one of the sides (always the left side, for clarity).

Only less-than vs. greater-than Problems may have imprecise (BP876right) dividing point between sides.

COMMENTS

"Allsorted" Bongard Problems (BP875left) always fit as right examples.

Left examples are never "allsorted".

BP881 Right pattern is "part of" left pattern (proper subset) vs. right pattern is not subset of left pattern.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

No one object is included on both sides of a dividing line in any example. Left examples when seen as Bongard Problems may either read as "not [right pattern] vs. [right pattern]" or have no unconvoluted solution at all, depending on whether the left side includes any objects that would fit in with the right side.

BP894 Examples fit solution (once it is known) relatively obviously vs. examples fit solution in subtle or complex, harder-to-see ways.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

One left and one right example with each solution are shown.


This BP is fuzzy for multiple reasons. How obvious it is that an example fits a rule is subjective. Also, somebody could read the simplicity of all included examples as part of a Bongard Problem's solution. For example, the more obvious version of "square number of dots vs. non-square number of dots" could be interpreted as "square small number of dots arranged in easy-to-read way vs. non-square small number of dots arranged in easy-to-read way."


Whether this Bongard Problem solution would categorize an image of itself left or right depends on the difficulty of the solutions of the mini-Problems.
