Abstract
A control method for a cooking equipment includes: acquiring image information of a cooking material; identifying the image information, and determining category information and volume information of the cooking material; and according to the category information and the volume information, determining the doneness corresponding to the cooking material. The volume information and the category information of the cooking material are obtained by identifying the image information, the volume change amount of the cooking material in the cooking process is calculated by using the initial volume and the current volume of the cooking material. Based on the volume change amount of the cooking material, the doneness corresponding to the cooking material is determined in a pre-trained doneness model. The control method includes monitoring the volume change of the cooking material in real time, to achieve an automatic doneness recognition function using the volume change amount.
