Abstract

The number of cooking recipe texts published on the Web is increasing in recent years. However, in general, cooking recipe texts have little flexibility. So, it is not always easy to retrieve cooking recipe texts that satisfy users' various demands. Therefore, it is necessary to create and offer recipes that suit the user's requirements. In this paper, we propose a method for finding replaceable materials considering characteristic cooking actions from a large amount of cooking recipe texts. The proposed method finds the replaceable materials by first extracting the cooking actions that correspond to each material than measuring the similarity of the extracted cooking actions. Through an evaluation of recipe texts created by replacing some materials that were found by the proposed method, we verified the effectiveness of the proposed method.
