After finishing his dinner, Lin Xu opened a WeChat mini-program called "Clear Plate" on his phone and took

picture of the empty plates. He was then awarded 157 credit points after the image was uploaded and recognized

by artificial intelligence.

“Users of the app can use their credit to buy gifts, such as books and cellphones to purchase charity meals

donated to children in poor rural areas,” Lin said.

A nationwide "Clear Your Plate" campaign is gaining steam online. Efforts to stop food waste and promote

thrift are also being made by restaurants that have been urged to create an environment in which consumers are

reminded not to waste food. They are also encouraged to offer different portion sizes so that customers can have

more choices.

The “Clear Plate” mini-program has become popular among young Chinese and currently has nearly 1 million

certain number of cards had been collected.

“Such an idea can be realized online,” Liu said. He formed a team to work on the project.

Yet it was quite challenge for the AI system to identify whether the uploaded photos showed empty plates.

To make the AI system smarter, Liu and his team, assisted by more than 1,000 others, spent half a year

collecting over 100, 000 samples in canteens and restaurants across the country and used the data to train neural

network. Dozens of enterprises, institutions and restaurants have contacted the startup to cooperate on the

project.

Through the visualized mini-program, people can clearly see the good results of saving food, which will

effectively reduce waste, he noted. "We hope our efforts can start a new trend among the younger generation,
