Digital photography based food intake prediction using artificial neural network

Introduction Many wearable devices monitoring have been proposed to complement self-reporting of users’ caloric intake and eating behaviours. These devices comprise varying sensing modalities, such as acoustic, visual, inertial, EEG, EMG, capacitive and piezoelectric sensors. In this research, food...
