Deep learning for food computing

Today Deep learning (DL) is revolutionizing many fields of real problems, beating human performance in problems such as object recognition, lip reading, or cancer detection. However, food recognition and segmentation are still underexplored and underexploited. To address them, we develop highly robust DL algorithms employing Transfer learning, Transformers, Uncertainty modeling and Explainability among others.
