Visual Recipe Flow: A Dataset for Learning Visual State Changes of Objects with Recipe Flows

Abstract

We present a new multimodal dataset called Visual Recipe Flow, which enables us to learn each cooking action result in a recipe text. The dataset consists of object state changes and the workflow of the recipe text. The state change is represented as an image pair, while the workflow is represented as a recipe flow graph (r-FG). The image pairs are grounded in the r-FG, which provides the cross-modal relation. With our dataset, one can try a range of applications, from multimodal commonsense reasoning and procedural text generation.
