Abstract


Food has become a very important aspect of our social activities. Since social networks and websites like Yelp appeared, their users have started uploading photos of their meals to the Internet. This phenomenon opens a whole world of possibilities for developing models for applying food analysis and recognition on huge amounts of real-world data. A clear application could consist in applying image food recognition by using the menu of the restaurants. Our model, based on Convolutional Neural Networks and Recurrent Neural Networks, is able to learn a language model that generalizes on never seen dish names without the need of re-training it. According to the Ranking Loss metric, the results obtained by the model improve the baseline by a 15%.
