It seems to me like many of the computer-generated MNIST digits involved retracing the same contours multiple times.
Is it possible to (a) filter out these duplicate strokes, (b) convert them to heavier-weight single strokes, or (c) change the training regime to not produce duplicate strokes?
I can see that being useful for e.g. a real robot with a limited amount of ink or lead (or time to draw each character).
- nthngnss 9y agoThe reason for that is that I chose a particular brush from the set of available brushes ('dry brush'). Since MNIST digits are quite sharp and opaque, the agent tries to achieve this by retracing the contours. I guess the remedy is to pick an appropriate brush style or make the agent choose it.
