Approximating Images With Random Lines - SickSad: "The algorithm works by randomly placing 40 black lines on 40 copies of a blank source image, each of those 40 is then compared to the goal image using SSIM to measure similarity. If any of the 40 are more similar than the source image that image is used as the source for the next iteration of the algorithm. If none of the 40 are more similar then the algorithm repeats with the original source image until a closer similarity is found."
