Hi 3WD.
Interesting model.. I have a few questions.. You used an analogy of a washer
for the levels and colored lights making up the washer (your x's) right?.
What if instead of moving holes each X is a washer. I am thinking of an
analogy of a neural net model where a unit is on or off just like the stars
twinkling or disappearing. So the hole is if the washer is "off" and the
circle part is if the washer is "on"
I don't know a lot about neural nets but one thing that differs from your
model is all the levels would use the same nodes (lights) and what changes is
the pattern connecting the nodes (weights I think) and whether the nodes are
on or off. So in analogy with your model with X being a star twinkling and O
if the star was "off".
(inorganic pattern)
XOXXXOX
OOXXOOX
XXOOXOO
XXOOXOO
(biological pattern)
XXXOOXX
OOOXOXO
XOXOXOX
OOOXOXX
ETC. ETC.
REGARDING COLORS-- WHAT IF THE COLOR CHANGES AS MORE LIGHTS ARE ON.
LIKE WHEN YOU ADD DIFFERENT COLORED LIGHTS IT BECOMES WHITE LIGHT
Any thoughts would be appreciated,
Erin
The regular hole typical in a washer
