Soup Over Bean of Pure Joy: Culinary Ruminations of an Artificial Chef

چکیده
We introduce a system for generating novel recipes and use that context to examine some current theoretical ideas for computational creativity. Specifically, we have found that the notion of a single inspiring set can be generalized into two separate sets used for generation and evaluation, respectively, with the result being greater novelty as well as system flexibility (and the potential for natural meta-level creativity), that explicitly measuring artefact typicality is not always necessary, and that explicitly defining an artefact hierarchically results in greater novelty.

This last capability is critical because rather than fixate on a blocked task, a person can work on some other task. For example, a person making bean soup wouldn’t watch...
متن کاملPlant breeding for local food systems: A contextual review of end-use selection for small grains and dry beans in Western Washington
The rapid growth and co-option of the local agriculture movement highlights a need to deepen connections to placebased culture. Selection of plant varieties specifically adapted to regional production and end-use is an important component of building a resilient food system. Doing so will facilitate a defetishization of food systems by increasing the cultural connection to production and consum...
متن کاملComputational Creativity in the Culinary Arts
This work examines the potential for computational creativity in the culinary arts. In particular, we present the outcome of our efforts to create an artificial chef that produces novel salad recipes with limited human assistance. Our system was designed in two steps: first, we constructed a statistical model to rank recipes. Then, we experimented with various search algorithms to explore the s...
