Correlations between Food Groups

Correlations between groups of premotor neurons carry information about prehension.

How distinct parameters are bound together in brain activity is unknown. Combination coding by interneuronal interactions is one possibility, but, to coordinate parameters, interactions between neuronal pairs must carry information about them. To address this issue, we recorded neural activity from multiple sites in the premotor cortices of monkeys that memorized reach direction and grasp type ...

Ecologic Correlations of Selected Food Groups With Disease Incidence and Mortality in Switzerland

BACKGROUND There is little information regarding the impact of diet on disease incidence and mortality in Switzerland. We assessed ecologic correlations between food availability and disease. METHODS In this ecologic study for the period 1970-2009, food availability was measured using the food balance sheets of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. Standardized mortalit...

Interactive Food Recommendation for Groups

We present a prototype of a novel interactive food recommender for groups of users that supports groups in planning their meals through a conversational process based on critiquing. The system comprises two novel elements: a user interface and interaction design based on tagging and critiquing, and a utility function incorporating healthiness and diet compliance factors.
