Cooking is one of the most fundamental activities of humankind. It is
not only connected with the joy of eating but also deeply affects
various aspects of human life such as health, dietary, culinary art,
entertainment, and human communication. Many people who cook at home
require supports for cooking because it requires experience and
knowledge. They may also need support for food-logging and menu planning
for the well-being of their family. Needless to say, support for a good
and enjoyable dinner would improve the quality of life. On the other
hand, systematic cooking/eating support for elderly or physically
challenged people is significantly important.
Thanks to modern technology, the basic environment needed for
establishing such a support system at home is becoming rich. Recently,
some home appliances are equipped with various sensing devices and a
computer. Reflecting this trend, researches on supporting cooking and
eating activities have started individually in many corners of the
world. This workshop aims to provide an opportunity for such research
groups to discover each other, introduce their trials, and discuss how
it should be and where they should go.
The workshop welcomes contributions in, but not limited to, the
following topics:

- Application for cooking and eating support
- Cooking archiving and recognition
- Learning contents creation for cooking
- Analysis of cooking video
- Recipe image/video retrieval
- Analysis and utilization on cooking recipe
