TODO

  • Adding the 5 fold cross-validation folders for Kenyan food/non-food classifier as well as Kenyan Food Type Recognizer in Google Drive

  • Adding documentation how to run the scraping script with a minimal example for both hashtag-based as well as location-based scenarios.

  • Adding documentation for running the Kenyan Food/Non-Food Classifier as well as Kenyan Food Type Recognizer both in Shared Cluster Center (SCC@BU) as well as on a Deep Learning station.

  • Adding a requirement.txt that shows all the necessary packages for this project.
