This guide details the process of fine-tuning a vision-language model, specifically Qwen3 VL, to estimate food nutrition from images. The approach involves recognizing dishes, inferring ingredients and cooking methods, estimating portion sizes using techniques like monocular depth maps, and mapping this information to nutritional profiles. The process utilizes the MM-Food-100K dataset, which contains 100,000 annotated food photos, and employs LoRA fine-tuning for efficient model adaptation. AI
