In this paper, we describe the Technology Assisted Dietary Assessment (TADA) project at Purdue University. Dietary intake, what someone eats during the course of a day, provides valuable insights for mounting intervention programs for prevention of many chronic diseases such as obesity and cancer. Accurate methods and tools to assess food and nutrient intake are essential for research on the association between diet and health. An overview of our methods used in the TADA project is presented. Our approach includes the use of image analysis tools for identification and quantification of food that is consumed at a meal. Images obtained before and after foods are eaten are used to estimate the amount and type of food consumed.
在本文中，我们描述了普渡大学的技术辅助饮食评估（TADA）项目。饮食摄入量，即一个人一天中所吃的东西，为开展预防肥胖和癌症等多种慢性病的干预项目提供了宝贵的见解。准确评估食物和营养摄入量的方法和工具对于饮食与健康关系的研究至关重要。本文介绍了我们在TADA项目中使用的方法概述。我们的方法包括使用图像分析工具来识别和量化一餐中所摄入的食物。进食前后获取的图像用于估计所摄入食物的数量和种类。
