Cooking State Recognition from Images Using Inception Architecture

A kitchen robot properly needs to understand the cooking environment to continue any cooking activities. But object's state detection has not been researched well so far as like object detection. In this paper, we propose a deep learning approach to identify different cooking states from images for a kitchen robot. In our research, we investigate particularly the performance of Inception architecture and propose a modified architecture based on Inception model to classify different cooking states. The model is analyzed robustly in terms of different layers, and optimizers. Experimental results on a cooking datasets demonstrate that proposed model can be a potential solution to the cooking state recognition problem.
