Cooperative algorithm for solving random-dot stereograms

Solves random-dot stereograms based on Marr & Poggio (1976) cooperative algorithm

This function solves random dot stereograms (based on two pictures, one for each eye) using an implementarion of Marr and Poggio (1976; 10.1126/science.968482) cooperative algorithm. It is chiefly meant to be used as an educational tool for courses on topics related to visual perception.

The function outputs a plot with the amount of disparities relative to the horopter (0 on the Z axes): Positive/negative values indicate surfaces closer/farther away to the observer (resulting, respectively, from crossed or uncrossed binocular disparities). It also saves the state of the disparities for each iteration on a 4D matrix (Image width × Image height × Disparity × Iteration).
