BP543 Image depicting infinitely many objects vs. image depicting finitely many objects.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

Another solution is "evokes infinity vs. not so." Or "seen as having arbitrarily fine detail." All left examples show objects getting smaller and smaller and closer and closer together approaching some limit within the box.

BP545 Solution for this problem (BP545) in English text vs. not.
(edit; present; nest [left/right]; search; history)
COMMENTS

This Problem admits multiple solutions besides "Solution for this problem in English text vs. not so," some of which are listed as the left examples. Some do not depend on the English language, so this Problem is technically "solvable" without the relevant cultural information.

These are meta Bongard Problems with at least two layers of nesting.

COMMENTS

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


Images of Bongard Problems with convoluted solutions often admit many alternative solutions of similar complexity. In order for one particular convoluted solution to be the simplest solution, it is often necessary to include a large number of examples. A similar issue appears in infodense Bongard Problems.


When a Bongard Problem is too convoluted, a person might find the intended answer but discount it because it seems too convoluted. A solution to a Bongard Problem is unambiguous when it is the least convoluted option by a large margin.

CROSSREFS

Related to arbitrary.

COMMENTS

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

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


Experimental BPs push the boundaries of what makes Bongard Problems Bongard Problems.


Traditional BPs show some simple property of black and white pictures. The OEBP is a place with many wild and absurd Bongard Problems, so it is useful to have an easy way to just find the regular old Bongard Problems.

BP551 Unstable balance vs. not

BP546 BP547 BP548 BP549 BP550  *  BP552 BP553 BP554 BP555 BP556

EXAMPLE

The classic example is a pendulum with a solid rod (instead of a string) which has a stable balance point at the bottom of its swing, where if you move the pendulum slightly it will swing back towards that balanced state. However, theoretically the pendulum can also be balanced pointing directly up. In this case, if you move the pendulum slightly it will swing down away from that upwards balanced state.

COMMENTS

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


If mirroring any example along the any axis can change its sorting the BP is "handed."


Note that BPs about comparing orientation between multiple things in one example fit on the right side.

CROSSREFS

See BP871 for the version with pictures of Bongard Problems (miniproblems) instead of links to pages on the OEBP.


The keyword leftright is specifically about flipping over the vertical axis, while the keyword updown is specifically about flipping over the horizontal axis.


Bongard Problems tagged rotate are usually "handed", since any rotation can be created by two reflections. Not necessarily, however, since the reflected step in between might not be sorted on either side by the Bongard Problem.
