Prediction requirements - For questions related to calories, predictions must be given in kilocalories (kcal). - For all other nutrient parameters (protein, fat, carbohydrates, etc.) predictions must be given in grams (g). - Round predictions up to 2 decimal places.Constraints - You may use any models, but model size must not exceed 4B parameters and the weights must be open. - You may not use any additional data beyond what is already provided in the competition. - A full run of the solution should be fit within Colab or Kaggle resource limits. - You are allowed to use additional tools.Notes: use the Recipe API<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://api-ninjas.com/"> https://api-ninjas.com/</a> and Nutrition API <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://calorieninjas.com/api">https://calorieninjas.com/api</a> (you need to register and get the free key) together with the chosen open LLM (Hugging Face) and implement tool-calling to fetch recipe and nutrition data so you can compute accurate per‑serving values.&nbsp;You can start from starting_solution.ipynb

sample.csv

test.csv

starting_solution.ipynb

You need to develop a solution to answer questions about the composition of dishes (for example, calories and macronutrients or by recipes), using large language models (LLMs) with support for tool calling. Participants are required to use an open LLM from Hugging Face together with external APIs (a Recipe API and a Nutrition API) to accurately determine the nutritional value per serving for given dishes.

Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a domain of research whose objective is to analyze and understand human languages and develop technologies to enable human machine interactions with natural languages. NLP is an interdisciplinary field involving linguistics, computer sciences and artificial intelligence. The goal of this course is to provide students with comprehensive knowledge of NLP. Students will be equiped with the principles and theories of NLP, as well as various NLP technologies, including rule-based, statistical and neural network ones. After this course, students will be able to conduct NLP research and develop state-of-the-art NLP systems.
