Cheezam – Shazam for Cheese

I got 15 cheeses from FR a few days ago (all French cheeses from the vicinity of Blois) and it had 100% of them wrong. Cheese 16 was a cheddar and it categorised that as Comte, but now I see here that it only recognises French ones? I do like the idea though; my wife can recognise many on sight and smell but I am more of a barbarian and know practically nothing about these except that I like or not like; it would be a handy app for me anyway if it performed better.

No you cannot say that my Comté affiné 36 mois is a slice of gruyere instead.

That's weird, it simply says "petril" for every image.

Nicely surprised, a picture of a Mont d&#x27;or was labelled as &quot;Vacherin des bauges&quot; which is quite close. Mont d&#x27;or is another name for a &quot;Vacherin&quot; from &quot;Haut-Doubs&quot;.<p>Unfortunately, the &#x2F;label page did not work on Firefox Android for me.

Reminded me of the Monty Python Cheese Shop sketch.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Cheese_Shop_sketch" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Cheese_Shop_sketch</a>

Of course, it&#x27;s a `.fr` :D

Don&#x27;t have french cheese around me right now, I tried with the first google image of camembert and it mislabeled as brie...<p>On a tangent, as I&#x27;m developing a similar ai powered pwa, what&#x27;s, in your opinion, the preferred way to let the user shoot a photo and upload it? Leverage the native camera&#x2F;upload UI (like the cheese app) or using a custom html&#x2F;js UI without leaving the app (something like this [0] demo not mine)?<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;demo.kasperkamperman.com&#x2F;mobilecamtemplate&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;demo.kasperkamperman.com&#x2F;mobilecamtemplate&#x2F;</a><p>edit added link to js UI example

When I&#x27;m identifying a cheese I feel like it&#x27;s 50% sight, 40% smell, 10% feel. It&#x27;s hard to imagine identifying arbitrary cheeses with just sight. There are <i>so many</i> and a lot of them look extremely similar.<p>Even distinguishing between Jarlsberg and Swiss seems like it could be a challenge, and that would be easy relative to a lot of others. On top of that if you have something like brie there&#x27;s a million of them - I don&#x27;t think I could distinguish brie de nangis from another brie unless I could touch it.

I read &quot;Shazam for Chess&quot; which would be quite interesting.<p>1.) Make a photo of a chess position<p>2.) Recognize position and convert to digital format<p>3.) Search chess database of grandmasters and return relevant games in png format

Got the Saint-Nectaire! Bravo!

They called my cheddar a Pelardon. The barbarians.

News flash from 2023: Prevision.io rebrands itself as Cheezam to focus on the fine cheese and wine niche. The company has partnered with Michelin 3-star restaurants, applying machine learning to high-throughput sequencing data to offer menus specially tailored to your genetic taste signature.

How close are we to having a webcam&#x2F;microphone for smells? Even if it only detects a small fraction of the thousands of the existing molecules, it would definitely be interesting, especially with some learning model built on top.

Nice.<p>I have a generic blue mold cheese here and it identified it as Bleudauvergne.<p>Incorrect, but very close to the truth.

Hi cheezam developper here. I got som server alert this night, it seems it comes from here :D<p>If you got any question, just do<p>First thing first : I labelled the cheese by myself , self taught. So most of the errors come from me labelling

As a child, I loved when we visited our family there: fruit as an appetizer and cheese for dessert was much more natural to me... &quot;put a piece of cheese in the ground and you&#x27;ll find out&quot;

Silicon Valley on HBO was a prophecy.

I’d really like a Pandora for cheese recommendation service based on current cheeses

I gave photo of Brie cheese and got vieuxboulogne. Well, they need to improve.

Is it it similar to Hotdog&#x2F;Not hot dog app shown on Silicon Valley?

I put in a pic of chedder and it says &quot;gruyere&quot;. Nah bro.

This is one of the least surprising TLDs I&#x27;ve seen.

It thought the kids Laughing Cow triangles were Etorki…

Reblochon is seen as Cantal (quite sure).<p>How huge is the dataset?

Detected all my cheddars as Gruyère…

What odor transducer do you use?

They only seem to be interested in French cheese.<p>What a pity... There are so many great non-French cheeses...

France does machine learning

&quot;Not a hot dog&quot;

Goddamn it Jian Yang!!!
