Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use the hierarchical T+L+T recipe encoder rather than ACME | Recipe1M image-to-recipe retrieval · Recipe1M test, 1k | R@1: 45.4 -> 49.7 | Helped |
| Use the hierarchical T+L+L recipe encoder rather than ACME | Recipe1M image-to-recipe retrieval · Recipe1M test, 10k | R@1: 18.0 -> 20.9 | Helped |
| Use Tree-LSTM ingredient encoding instead of attention | Main ingredient prediction · Recipe1M test | R@1: 9.1 -> 47.0 | Helped |
| Remove the least-important ingredient and its occurrences in instructions (ablation) | T+T+L retrieval · Recipe1M test, image-to-recipe | R@1: 49.0 -> 51.1 | Helped |
| Remove the two least-important ingredients and their instruction occurrences (ablation) | T+T+L retrieval · Recipe1M test, image-to-recipe | R@1: 49.0 -> 0.5 | Hurt |
| Remove the three least-important ingredients and their instruction occurrences (ablation) | T+T+L retrieval · Recipe1M test, image-to-recipe | R@1: 49.0 -> 48.7 | Hurt |
| Remove the four least-important ingredients and their instruction occurrences (ablation) | T+T+L retrieval · Recipe1M test, image-to-recipe | R@1: 49.0 -> 46.3 | Hurt |
| Keep only the six highest-ranked ingredients (ablation) | T+T+L retrieval · Recipe1M test, image-to-recipe | R@1: 49.0 -> 44.7 | Hurt |
| Keep ingredients up to tree depth 4 (ablation) | T+T+L retrieval · Recipe1M test, image-to-recipe | R@1: 49.0 -> 49.7 | Helped |
| Use Tree-LSTM for sentence encoding and LSTM for instruction-level encoding instead of Tree-LSTM at both levels (ablation) | Recipe1M action-word extraction · Recipe1M test | verb percentage: 47.88 -> 77.07 | Helped |
| Replace the ingredient Set encoder with GRU attention in the LSTM-based retrieval configuration (ablation) | Recipe1M image-to-recipe retrieval · Recipe1M test, 1k | R@1: 48.0 -> 49.3 | Helped |
| Replace the ingredient Set encoder with Tree-LSTM in the LSTM-based retrieval configuration (ablation) | Recipe1M image-to-recipe retrieval · Recipe1M test, 1k | R@1: 48.0 -> 49.4 | Helped |
