Artificial Intelligence: AI reveals the secret to taste

 

An artificial intelligence (AI) that learns ingredients in ingredients and creates new food recipes by composing combinations has been developed.

 

Kang Jae-woo, a professor of computer science at Korea University, announced on the 29th that, in collaboration with Sony AI, a subsidiary of Sony, a Japanese electronics company, the research team developed an AI that recommends the optimal combination of ingredients by using the characteristics of chemical ingredients in ingredients and big data from market recipes.

Artificial Intelligence: The 'Flavor Graph'

 

The research team developed the 'Flavor Graph', a graph that integrates the relationship between 1561 chemical molecular information and ingredients analyzed from 1 million recipes for AI learning. AI can predict the relationship between chemical molecules and food and create creative recipe combinations. Previously, the research team developed an AI that analyzes ingredient combinations using only recipes, but it became possible to recommend combinations that were not in existing recipes by including chemical information.

Sony AI requested joint research after seeing that research professor Dong-hyun Park of the Department of Computer Science, Korea University, who led this research, disclosed 'Kitchennet', an AI model for recommending ingredient combinations in 2019, at an international conference, and this study was completed. Sony, well-known for its PlayStation game consoles, established Sony AI in 2019 and included food as its three main research areas in addition to games and image sensors, which are its main industries. The goal is to develop an AI that recommends personal nutrition and an assistant AI robot that helps cooks.

 

The research team plans to develop an AI model that uses Sony AI and Flavor Graph to create new recipes that also consider food flavor and nutrition. It is decided to establish a precision nutrition program that recommends personalized recipes and diets that take into account an individual's genetic characteristics, lifestyle, and health condition.

 

The research results were published in the international academic journal Scientific Reports in January.
