Abstract:
In recent years, there has been a growing interest in leveraging deep learning techniques for food and calorie tracking to support healthier lifestyles and personalized nutrition. This paper proposes an innovative approach that utilizes the EfficientNetB0 pretrained model, a state-of-the-art convolutional neural network (CNN), for accurate and efficient food and calorie tracking. The EfficientNetB0 model, known for its excellent balance between accuracy and computational efficiency, is fine-tuned on a large-scale food image dataset to learn specific food features and their corresponding calorie values. The dataset is carefully curated, comprising diverse food categories and portion sizes to capture the wide range of dietary choices and variations encountered in real-world scenarios. To ensure seamless integration with popular food tracking applications, we develop an end-to-end pipeline that includes image preprocessing, feature extraction using EfficientNetB0, and a calorie estimation module. The pipeline is trained and evaluated on a comprehensive benchmark dataset, consisting of annotated food images and corresponding ground truth calorie information.Experimental results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed model, achieving high accuracy in food identification and accurate calorie estimation. The EfficientNetB0-based model outperforms existing deep learning architectures while maintaining computational efficiency, making it suitable for real-time food and calorie tracking applications on resource-constrained devices. Furthermore, we provide insights into the interpretability of the model's predictions by employing gradient-based methods to generate heatmaps highlighting regions of interest in food images. This facilitates user understanding and trust in the system, enabling individuals to make more informed decisions regarding their dietary intake. Overall, this research presents a novel deep learning framework that harnesses the power of the EfficientNetB0 pretrained model for efficient and accurate food and calorie tracking. The proposed approach has the potential to significantly impact personal nutrition management, promoting healthier lifestyles and aiding individuals in achieving their dietary goals
