Salvaging Responsible Consumption and Production of Food in the Hospitality Industry

Abstract

The hospitality industry stands at the forefront of addressing critical challenges in responsible consumption and production of food, and this research endeavors to spearhead transformative solutions by harnessing the power of machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) technologies. In the contemporary context, where issues like global hunger, malnutrition, and the intricate dynamics of food adulteration significantly impact the industry's demand-supply mechanism, the integration of advanced technological strategies becomes paramount. This chapter strategically examines the role of ML and DL in achieving zero waste within the hospitality sector, offering a nuanced exploration of challenges and presenting innovative strategies to thwart food loss-waste management.
