Abstract
This paper presents a multi-class taste predictor, VirtuousMultiTaste, designed to distinguish bitter, sweet, and umami tastes from other sensations. Utilizing a hybrid approach of heuristic optimization and nonlinear machine learning, the model leverages physicochemical properties of food ingredients to predict taste. The web-based tool (https://virtuous.isi.gr/#/virtuous-multitaste) offers a user-friendly interface for analyzing chemical compounds and understanding their taste profiles, with potential applications in food design and personalized nutrition.
