Research on the Sensory Quality Evaluation of Agricultural Food Based on Linguistic Information

Abstract:

It presents a proposed method for the development of accredited sensory evaluation methods for agricultural food, and shows the application of the linguistic 2-tuple representation model and its advantages. It involved several steps: gathering of sensory information from experts; computing a collective evaluation for each feature; computing collective evaluations for each object; sensory evaluation and quality certification with global evaluation result.
