Computational models that need to incorporate domain knowledge for realistic solutions to problems often lead to technologies that get transferred to developing countries. The support for managing the knowledge incorporated into these technologies is important for customisation to suit local conditions. This work investigates this problem through the challenge of incorporating food and nutrition therapy guidelines (FNTG) into ICT-based solution models for the meal planning problem (MPP) for HIV/AIDS patients in developing countries. An experiment is undertaken to demonstrate the limitations of existing approaches and framework is investigated for manageable incorporation of knowledge into solution models. The paper contributes a clear understanding of, and directions for addressing, the problem of support for managing the knowledge incorporated into solutions models to support customisability of technologies. The significance of this contribution is that solutions will allow resulting technologies to be customised for use in different global contexts.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
