UBITECH co-authors a scientific paper on personalized nutritional recommendations at PCI-2015

A scientific paper entitled “DISYS: An Intelligent System for Personalized Nutritional Recommendations in Restaurants” has been accepted for oral presentation at the 19th Panhellenic Conference on Informatics 2015 (PCI-2015), which is held in Athens, Greece, on October 1-3, 2015. Dimitris Ntalaperas, Konstantinos Perakis and their co-authors present the design of an intelligent application called DISYS that aims to offer personalized information to consumers when visiting a restaurant in order to support them to select a dish or a meal that is within their preferences but at the same time is healthy for them and in line with their dietary targets and their health conditions. DISYS is operated by restaurant managers who configure the meals and dishes their establishment offers, as well as the nutritional characteristics of each meal. Moreover, dieticians can support their customers by analysing their actions and interactions with the DISYS application with respect to food consumption habits.
