Study Protocol for Surveying Nutrient Assessment With Photographs of Meals (SNAPMe): A Benchmark Dataset of Food Records and Paired With Meal Photos

ABSTRACT: Abstract

Objectives

Photo-based dietary assessment methods are becoming more feasible as artificial intelligence methods improve. However, advancement of these methods to the level usable in nutrition studies has been hindered by the lack of a dataset against which to benchmark algorithm performance. Here, we introduce the Surveying Nutrient Assessment with Photographs of Meals (SNAPMe) Study (ClinicalTrials ID: NCT05008653), describe the data, and discuss the utility of the data.

Methods

The purpose of the SNAPMe Study was to pair meal photographs with traditional food records. The goal was to collect approximately 1000 real-world meal photos from 100 participants consuming at least three meals per day, for a total of three study days. Participants were recruited nationa
