Food Detection with Image Processing Using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) Method

Project Code :TMMAAI52

Objective

Currently, the payment process at restaurants is still manual and inefficient because it uses a cash register. To reduce difficulty in this process, we introduce a novel food recognition and automatic bill generation using deep learning techniques.

Abstract

In this paper, food detection aims to facilitate payment at restaurants, and automatic food price estimation is by using the network. Because of the wide diversity of types of food, image recognition of food items is generally very difficult. We applied AlexNet to the tasks of food detection and recognition through image processing techniques. We constructed a dataset of the most frequent food items in Kaggle, and used it to evaluate recognition performance. 

The network classifies the train data and test data and gives the results of classified output. However, deep learning has been shown recently to be a very powerful image recognition technique, and it is a state-of-the-art approach to deep learning. This network obtained 95% of accuracy more than existing methods.

Keywords: Image recognition, AlexNet, Image processing, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN).
