Gestalt Pattern Reasoning Benchmark

alt text

This repository contains a dataset and benchmarking framework for Gestalt pattern reasoning. The dataset consists of thousands of procedurally generated visual patterns based on Gestalt principles, including proximity, similarity, closure, symmetry, and continuity. The benchmark is designed to evaluate both human and AI performance in recognizing and reasoning about these patterns.

Github

The Dataset Generator and Benchmark Evaluation Code is on the Github.

Dataset

principle_all_resolution_224_num_100.zip: includes 5 Gestalt Principles, each task has 100 examples for each labels. The image resolution is 224x224.
