An Application Of Deep Learning Models To Automate Food Waste Classification, Alejandro Zachary Espinoza
Dissertations and Theses
Food wastage is a problem that affects all demographics and regions of the world. Each year, approximately one-third of food produced for human consumption is thrown away. In an effort to track and reduce food waste in the commercial sector, some companies utilize third party devices which collect data to analyze individual contributions to the global problem. These devices track the type of food wasted (such as vegetables, fruit, boneless chicken, pasta) along with the weight. Some devices also allow the user to leave the food in a kitchen container while it is weighed, so the container weight must also …

Localizing Little Landmarks With Transfer Learning, Sharad Kumar
Dissertations and Theses
Locating a small object in an image -- like a mouse on a computer desk or the door handle of a car -- is an important computer vision problem to solve because in many real life situations a small object may be the first thing that gets operated upon in the image scene. While a significant amount of artificial intelligence and machine learning research has focused on localizing prominent objects in an image, the area of small object detection has remained less explored. In my research I explore the possibility of using context information to localize small objects in an …
