Abstract

Many works have been proposed for food image analysis, such as food recognition and ingredient recognition, in order to facilitate healthcare applications. However, relatively fewer studies have been done on jointly considering multiple factors. In this paper, we think that a food image is better described by not only what food it is but also how it was cooked. We propose neural networks to jointly consider food recognition, ingredient recognition, and cooking method recognition, and verify that recognition performance can be improved by taking multiple factors into account. We collect a food image dataset consisting of clean ingredient information, and demonstrate effectiveness of the proposed recognition models from various viewpoints.
