How this classifier works

To start, upload your image. Our AI tool will then predict what type of pasta shape it is.

This pretrained image model uses a Nyckel-created dataset and has 29 labels, including Bigoli, Campanelle, Capellini, Cavatappi, Conchiglie, Ditalini, Farfalle, Fettuccine, Fusilli and Gemelli.

We'll also show a confidence score (the higher the number, the more confident the AI model is around what type of pasta shape it is).

Whether you're just curious or building pasta shapes detection into your application, we hope our classifier proves helpful.

Quality Control: Pasta manufacturers can utilize the image classification function to monitor the shape consistency of their products during production. By automatically detecting misformed shapes, they can ensure that only pasta meeting quality standards is packaged and shipped.

Inventory Management: Grocery stores and pasta suppliers can implement the identifier to categorize pasta shapes in inventory systems. This would streamline inventory tracking and assist staff in quickly locating specific pasta types based on shape for restocking purposes.

Recipe Recommendation Systems: Food delivery and recipe websites can integrate the pasta shape identifier to suggest recipes based on the user's pasta shape preference. This functionality enhances user experience by providing tailored meal ideas that utilize specific pasta varieties.

Consumer Education Apps: Cooking and culinary educational platforms can incorporate the image classifier to help users learn about different pasta shapes and their traditional uses. This can drive engagement and improve user skills in pairing pasta shapes with appropriate sauces or dishes.

Nutritional Analysis: Food tech companies can utilize the pasta shape identifier for apps that track dietary intake. By recognizing the shape, the app can offer nutritional information and serving suggestions specific to the type of pasta consumed, promoting healthier eating habits.

Augmented Reality Features: Restaurants and cooking apps can use this technology to power augmented reality (AR) experiences, allowing users to scan pasta shapes and receive instant information on origin, cooking time, and pairings. This interactive approach can enhance the dining experience and educate consumers.

E-commerce Personalization: Online pasta retailers can employ the image classifier to improve search functionality on their platforms. By allowing customers to upload images of pasta shapes, the system can recommend matching pasta products, optimizing the shopping experience and potentially increasing sales.
