  • Patent number: 12288037
    Abstract: A recipe translation server includes circuitry which acquires quantitative recipe information which is made by converting qualitative expressions in recipe information written in a first language into quantitative expressions of numerical values. The quantitative recipe information includes nodes and edges, each node representing information on an ingredient of a dish and each edge provided between nodes and represents information on an action for cooking the dish. The circuitry acquires edge information by translating the edges written in the first language into edges written in a second language and by referring to an edge database. The circuitry then acquires node information by translating the nodes written in the first language into nodes written in the second language and by referring to a dictionary database, and generates translated quantitative recipe information corresponding to the recipe information translated into the second language.

  • Publication number: 20220215770
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus 100 has a configuration that includes: an information holding unit 110 that holds correspondence information 114 that defines a relation between attributes of a person and a difficulty level of respective dishes, and recipe information 112 for the respective dishes; and an estimation unit 120 estimates a difficulty level of the recipe information for a user of the recipe information by applying attributes of the user and information pertaining to a dish to be cooked using the recipe information to the correspondence information 114.

  • Publication number: 20210338008
    Abstract: A server device, characterized by comprising: comprising: a memory and at least one processor configured to: detect a second cooking process performed by a user who is cooking according to a cooking recipe involving a first cooking process; and in a case where a predetermined condition that the second cooking process detected by the detection unit deviates from the first cooking process is met, performs control for outputting a modified cooking recipe resulting from subjecting the first cooking process to at least one of reordering relevant steps, adding a step, or removing a step based on a configuration of the first cooking process and a configuration of the second cooking process that meets the predetermined condition.

  • Publication number: 20210312142
    Abstract: A recipe translation server, for translating quantitative recipe information into a second language based on recipe information written in a first language, comprising: a memory and at least one circuitry configured to acquire quantitative recipe information, wherein ,the quantitative recipe information being made by converting qualitative expressions described in the recipe information into quantitative expressions and the quantitative recipe information includes nodes each representing information on an ingredient of a dish and edges each provided between nodes and representing information on an action necessary for a cooking process of the dish; separate the quantitative recipe information into the nodes and the edges; acquire edge information made by translating the edges written in the first language into the second language from an edge translation unit associating the edges written in the first language with the edges in the second language; and acquire node information made by translating the n

  • Publication number: 20210312830
    Abstract: A server device includes a memory that stores recipe information, and circuitry. The circuitry is configured to transmit, via a network, the recipe information to a terminal device; receive, via the network, user attribute information regarding an attribute of a user of the terminal device; receive, via the network, information regarding an information output mode available by the terminal device or a cooking appliance device; and perform control for outputting the recipe information by at least one of the terminal device or the cooking appliance device, based on the received information regarding the information output mode and the received user attribute information, the recipe information being output, by the cooking appliance device or the terminal device, in an output mode that matches the attribute of the user indicated by the user attribute information.
