DISYS: Intelligent System for Personalized Nutritional Recommendations

UBITECH organised and hosted the Athens kick-off meeting of the DISYS research project, officially started on March 1st, 2014. The project is partially funded by the National Strategic Reference Framework (NSRF) (Grant Agreement No 1621-BET-2013) and runs in the period March 2014 – July 2015.

DISYS project aims to study, design and develop an intelligent system for personalized dietary recommendations, which will take into account the nutritional profile of the consumer and selected health indicators (e.g., blood sugar levels, blood pressure, etc.) and will propose “healthy” meals to the consumer which can be consumed in a restaurant.

UBITECH participates in the design, technical specification and implementation of the Nutritional Profile Layer, integrating the business logic required so that the consumer can introduce self – reported personal data such as eating habits and basic medical information (e.g. allergies or conditions like diabetes), which are mapped to the DISYS Semantic Model. UBITECH participates in the implementation of the nutritional profile of the consumer, based on which the dietary recommendations will rely. The Nutritional Profile Layer also integrates the business logic required amongst others for the nutritional analysis of dietary menus and the mapping of this information to the DISYS Semantic Model.For more information, please visit the project’s website or contact us.
