ABSTRACT
Due to food culture, religion, allergy and food intolerance we have to find a good system to help us recognize our food. In this paper, we propose methods to recognize food and to show the ingredients using a bag-of-features (BoF) based on SURF detection features. We also propose bag of SURF features and bag-of HOG Features at the same time with the SURF feature detection to recognize the food items. In the experiment, we have achieved up to 72% of accuracy rate on a small food image dataset of 10 categories. Our experiments show that the proposed representation is significantly accurate at identifying food in the existing methods. Moreover, the enhancement of the visual dataset with more images will improve the accuracy rates, especially for the classes with high diversity.

Food Image Recognition by Using Bag of SURF: Color Features
HAI '15: Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Human-Agent InteractionThe importance of researches in the old days is the retrieval of similar objects. Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) system uses low-level features such as texture, color, and shape to extract the features, but when it comes to food images it is hard ...
Face Recognition by Using SURF Features with Block-Based Bag of Feature Models
HAI '15: Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Human-Agent InteractionFace recognition is used to identify humans by their face image. Recently it becomes most common application in information security. Bag of features has been successfully applied in face recognition. In our research we use SURF features and try to ...
Random interest regions for object recognition based on texture descriptors and bag of features
In this work we propose a novel method for object recognition based on a random selection of interest regions, texture features (local binary/ternary patterns and local phase quantization) for describing each region, a bag-of-features approach for ...
