HanKA: Enriched Knowledge Used by an Adaptive Cooking Assistant

Semantically Annotated Cooking Procedures for an Intelligent Kitchen Environment

“…The results show that the system behaves robustly in low-confidence scenarios and that, in most of the cases, it succeeds both in identifying the correctness of a recipe but also establishing a satisfactory way of providing the necessary advice to the user. In contrast to other systems, we lay on the side of real-time feedback, which is missing [13] or partially missing [14] from recent approaches, but also on the side of easier deployment, since our approach does not depend on specialized hardware [11,14]. However, since all of these approaches concentrate on different aspects of recipe preparation, we conclude that future efforts should consider the outcomes from all of them.…”

“…Furthermore, it does not include real-time feedback on the existing state of the recipe. Finally, the learning part of HanKA [14] is the planning of individual tasks of the recipe. Planning is very useful, especially for an inexperienced user; however, the entire system depends on existing devices, which can be discovered and controlled externally.…”

“…A more recent work is HanKA [14], which is a modular cooking assistant. HanKA supports the detection and control of kitchen devices and additional user interfaces for the purpose of task planning throughout the execution of a recipe.…”
