Abstract :
Aiming at reducing the number of tests, this paper presents a method of optimal experiment design in sensory evaluation using IOWA operator inference and similarity measurement. Different from classical techniques, this method is an on-line experiment design, permitting to take into account results of old tests in the design of each new test. It can effectively reduce the total number of tests or comparisons while maintaining high accuracy of evaluation
