ACM Workshop + Hackathon @ MMFood’25
The 1st International Workshop on Multi-modal Food Computing (MMFood'25) will be held in conjunction with the 33rd ACM International Conference on Multimedia (ACMMM25) in Dublin, Ireland, on 27th/28th October 2025.
This MMFood’25 workshop will explore the intersection of AI, computer vision, natural language processing, and sensory modeling in understanding food. It aims to advance multimodal methods for food recognition, recommendation, and analysis, addressing challenges in health, nutrition, and sustainability. By bringing together researchers from AI, food science, health informatics, computational social science, and human-computer interaction (HCI), this workshop will foster interdisciplinary collaboration to drive innovation in multimodal food computing.
The call for papers is open now. More details can be found here.
A hackathon, centered around Indian Food Knowledge Graph, will also be organized as part of this event — details will be announced shortly.

This challenge aims to advance AI-driven food analysis by focusing on the visually complex and culturally diverse Indian Thali. Participants will develop models to:
- Detect individual food items within a Thali image using bounding boxes.
- Classify each detected item into its respective food category.
- Estimate the total calorie content of the Thali.
Important Dates:
- Registration Deadline: 1st May, 2025
- Dataset Release: 2nd May, 2025
- Submission Deadline: 15th June, 2025
- Evaluation & Results: 25th June, 2025
