In our recent dietary assessment field studies on passive dietary monitoring in Ghana, we have collected over 250k in-the-wild images. The dataset is an ongoing effort to facilitate accurate measurement of individual food and nutrient…
This paper proposes an image-processing-based method for personalization of calorie consumption assessment during exercising. An experiment is carried out where several actions are required in an exercise called broadcast gymnastics,…
Accurate detection of individual intake gestures is a key step towards automatic dietary monitoring. Both inertial sensor data of wrist movements and video data depicting the upper body have been used for this purpose. The most advanced…
This paper addresses the challenges of learning representations for recipes and food images in the cross-modal retrieval problem. As the relationship between a recipe and its cooked dish is cause-and-effect, treating a recipe as a text…
Transformer models are permutation equivariant. To supply the order and type information of the input tokens, position and segment embeddings are usually added to the input. Recent works proposed variations of positional encodings with…
With diet and nutrition apps reaching 1.4 billion users in 2022 [1], it's not surprise that popular health apps, MyFitnessPal, Noom, and Calorie Counter, are surging in popularity. However, one major setback [2] of nearly all nutrition…
It is well known that dietary habits have a significant influence on health. While many studies have been conducted to understand this relationship, little is known about the relationship between eating environments and health. Yet…
In contemporary society, the application of artificial intelligence for automatic food recognition offers substantial potential for nutrition tracking, reducing food waste, and enhancing productivity in food production and consumption…
Purpose: Surgical scene understanding plays a critical role in the technology stack of tomorrow's intervention-assisting systems in endoscopic surgeries. For this, tracking the endoscope pose is a key component, but remains challenging due…
A novel energy-efficient edge computing paradigm is proposed for real-time deep learning-based image upsampling applications. State-of-the-art deep learning solutions for image upsampling are currently trained using either resize or…
Image classification is a fundamental task in computer vision, and the quest to enhance DNN accuracy without inflating model size or latency remains a pressing concern. We make a couple of advances in this regard, leading to a novel…
Food recognition is an important task for a variety of applications, including managing health conditions and assisting visually impaired people. Several food recognition studies have focused on generic types of food or specific cuisines,…
Camouflaged object detection (COD) aims to generate a fine-grained segmentation map of camouflaged objects hidden in their background. Due to the hidden nature of camouflaged objects, it is essential for the decoder to be tailored to…
This paper presents a method to accurately estimate the required decoding energy for a given HEVC software decoding solution. We show that the decoder's processing time as returned by common C++ and UNIX functions is a highly suitable…
77% of adults over 50 want to age in place today, presenting a major challenge to ensuring adequate nutritional intake. It has been reported that one in four older adults that are 65 years or older are malnourished and given the direct link…
People enjoy food photography because they appreciate food. Behind each meal there is a story described in a complex recipe and, unfortunately, by simply looking at a food image we do not have access to its preparation process. Therefore,…
Food image-to-recipe aims to learn an embedded space linking the rich semantics in recipes with the visual content in food image for cross-modal retrieval. The existing research works carry out the learning of such space by assuming that…
Editing flat-looking images into stunning photographs requires skill and time. Automated image enhancement algorithms have attracted increased interest by generating high-quality images without user interaction. However, the quality…
The increase in awareness of people towards their nutritional habits has drawn considerable attention to the field of automatic food analysis. Focusing on self-service restaurants environment, automatic food analysis is not only useful for…
Maintaining health and fitness through a balanced diet is essential for preventing non communicable diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. NutriVision combines smart healthcare with computer vision and machine learning to…
