Left examples have the keyword "infodense" on the OEBP.
Consider the amount of data a person has to consciously unpack in each example in the process of determining how it should be sorted. In BP3, it is only necessary to notice the color of the shape. In BP871, however, it is important to read various qualities of every tiny shape shown.
Images of Bongard Problems that are "infodense" typically need to include a large number of examples in order to communicate the solution clearly without admitting unintended solutions. With so much data packed in each example, it becomes more likely that some of the random patterns in the data will happen to distinguish between the two sides in an unintended way. A similar issue appears in convoluted Bongard Problems.
Contrast "infodense" Problems to hardsort Bongard Problems, in which examples are difficult to sort, but perhaps that difficulty does not stem from reading a high amount of information; perhaps there is a small amount of information extracted from the examples, but it is hard to determine whether or not that information fits a rule. |
