Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 0:
1. A food-recognition method, comprising:
inputting each frame, of a plurality of frames of a video stream, into a multiple-object detector to obtain (i) a bounding box identifying where each food item, of one or more food items, appears within said each frame, and (ii) a predicted multiple-object class identifying said each food item with a multiple-object probability;
for each bounding box:
cropping said each frame into a cropped frame based on said each bounding box;
inputting the cropped frame into a classifier to obtain one or more predicted classifier classes that identify said each food item with corresponding one or more classifier probabilities; and
determining a food identity of said each food item based on the predicted multiple-object class, the multiple-object probability, the one or more predicted classifier classes, and the corresponding one or more classifier probabilities;

creating a frame list of the one or more food identities determined from said each frame;
enqueuing at least one of the one or more food identities in the frame list into a most-viewed queue of elements to create an updated most-viewed queue; and
outputting at least one of the one or more food identities in the updated most-viewed queue.
