Video-based recipe retrieval.

Recipe retrieval has received great attention in the research community, which focuses on retrieving a textual recipe given a text or an image as the query. However, cooking is an interesting activity, and many useful elements are hidden in the dynamic videos, which might be omitted in the statistic texts and images. On the other hand, although a number of video-based retrieval methods have been investigated in the past, existing technologies mainly focus on general applications and seldom take the domain-specific feature into account. To bridge the above gap, we investigate a new problem of video-based recipe retrieval, which refers to retrieving a cooking video from a list of video candidates given a textual recipe as the query, or the reverse side.
