Abstract
This project its about many of the most advanced fields in computer science as data mining
and data visualization. Also it's pretended to create a new leading application about a
innovative idea, develop a big cooking data base with a visualization module. This feature will
allow to visualize the complex network created from all the food ingredients in the data base
in order to make easier the data extraction in the food network. All of this working in a web
site and always using scalable technologies for a good performance in big amounts of data
scenarios. This project is contextualized in the UB-Bullipèdia Unit.
Graph analysis it's a growing field in computer sciences, every day more data is organized in
network form, it's the case for example of the social networks. Also data mining and
information analysis in general are growing fields because the data volumes are raising every
day, it makes the data visualization really interesting for extract useful data and conclusions
in a easy way. In addition, using data organized in a graph form is easy to extract interesting
information as clusters, minimum paths, most central nodes and popular nodes...
To sum up, the project will be segmented in different goals, data collection like data cleaning
and web visualization. Every single one of this parts i's so important for achieve the
completely working application.
These goals imply to construct a smart web crawler in order to fill the data base downloading
all recipes from any cooking websites, use scalable technologies with the purpose of don't
lose performance with huge amounts of data, and make it all work in a web application for
make easier to visualize the data. The website will be developed under the python
framework, Djando.
