A case study of Food Production Using Artificial Intelligence

Published:31 July 2020Publication History

ABSTRACT

In these days, artificial intelligence (AI) finds applications in many different domains, including art creation such as painting and music. However, there is lack of know-how involving AI in developing food products. In this case, we analyzed a large number of Japanese newspaper articles and developed a chocolate that represents the mood of each year. Specifically, the mood was expressed by predicting the taste of words by machine learning. This paper describes how to create software that converts human sensation into taste, and how people develop products based on it, and how to evaluate the resulting product. In the result, we introduce a product developed with the support of artificial intelligence that has an effect of stimulating curiosity in consumers and can lead developers to new discoveries and perspectives. In the future, we aim to create a system that supports collaborative recipe development involving AI, developers, and consumers.
