Clustering food recipes from around the world

In this assignment, you are expected to hierarchically cluster food recipes. We will be using YY Ahn's dataset "Recipe datasets with cuisines", which for each recipe provides a list of ingredients and the country of origin, scraped from popular recipe websites. He also provides an ingredient and compounds dataset, which you could potentially also make use of, if you find it interesting.

You will be graded as follow:

  • Data parsing and representation (20 pts)
  • Clustering (30 pts)
  • Visualization (30 pts)
  • Short (datailed) analysis of specific cluster (20 pts)
