• Authors: Karan Taneja and Richard Segal and Richard Goodwin
• Abstract summary: We propose RecipeMC, a text generation method using GPT-2 that relies on Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) RecipeMC allows us to define reward functions to put soft constraints on text generation and thus improve the credibility of the generated recipes. Our results show that human evaluators prefer recipes generated with RecipeMC more often than recipes generated with other baseline methods.

• Abstract: Automatic food recipe generation methods provide a creative tool for chefs to explore and to create new, and interesting culinary delights. Given the recent success of large language models (LLMs), they have the potential to create new recipes that can meet individual preferences, dietary constraints, and adapt to what is in your refrigerator. Existing research on using LLMs to generate recipes has shown that LLMs can be finetuned to generate realistic-sounding recipes. However, on close examination, these generated recipes often fail to meet basic requirements like including chicken as an ingredient in chicken dishes. In this paper, we propose RecipeMC, a text generation method using GPT-2 that relies on Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS). RecipeMC allows us to define reward functions to put soft constraints on text generation and thus improve the credibility of the generated recipes. Our results show that human evaluators prefer recipes generated with RecipeMC more often than recipes generated with other baseline methods when compared with real recipes.

  We propose a retrieval augmented large multimodal model for recipe generation. It retrieves recipes semantically related to the image from an existing datastore as a supplement. It calculates the consistency among generated recipe candidates, which use different retrieval recipes as context for generation.

  We design the counterfactual recipe generation task, which asks models to modify a base recipe according to the change of an ingredient. We collect a large-scale recipe dataset in Chinese for models to learn culinary knowledge. Results show that existing models have difficulties in modifying the ingredients while preserving the original text style, and often miss actions that need to be adjusted.

  We propose a novel framework: Decomposing Generation Networks (DGN) with structure prediction. Specifically, we split each cooking instruction into several phases, and assign different sub-generators to each phase. Our approach includes two novel ideas: (i) learning the recipe structures with the global structure prediction component and (ii) producing recipe phases in the sub-generator output component based on the predicted structure.
