Measuring free-living peoples' food intake represents methodological and technical challenges. The Remote Food Photography Method (RFPM) involves participants capturing pictures of their food selection and plate waste and sending these pictures to the research center via a wireless network, where they are analyzed by Registered Dietitians to estimate food intake. Initial tests indicate that the RFPM is reliable and valid, though the efficiency of the method is limited due to the reliance on human raters to estimate food intake. Herein, we describe the development of a semi-automated computer imaging application to estimate food intake based on pictures captured by participants.
测量自由生活人群的食物摄入量存在方法学和技术上的挑战。远程食物摄影法(RFPM)要求参与者拍摄他们所选食物和餐盘剩余食物的照片,并通过无线网络将这些照片发送到研究中心,由注册营养师对照片进行分析以估算食物摄入量。初步测试表明,RFPM是可靠且有效的,不过由于该方法依赖人工评分员来估算食物摄入量,其效率有限。在此,我们描述了一种基于参与者拍摄的照片估算食物摄入量的半自动计算机成像应用程序的开发情况。
