<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accurately calculate calorie intake. <P>SOLUTION: On the basis of a before-meal image and an after-meal image, for respective plate areas in the before-meal image, a first similarity of a plate part of the plate area and a plate part of respective plate candidate areas in the after-meal image is calculated, and a second similarity of a meal part of the plate area and a meal part of the respective plate candidate areas in the after-meal image is calculated. Then, for the respective plate areas in the before-meal image, the plate candidate area in the after-meal image where a third similarity calculated from the first similarity and the second similarity becomes a largest value is specified. Further, for the respective plate areas in the before-meal image, a meal intake ratio is calculated on the basis of the meal part of the plate area and the meal part of the plate candidate area in the after-meal image specified for the plate area, and the total calorie intake is calculated by adding the product of the calories of a meal put on the plate area in the before-meal image and the meal intake ratio for the plate area in the before-meal image for all the plate areas in the before-meal image. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT</p> |
