The Fuzzy Symbolic Approach for the Control of Sensory Properties in Food Processes

  • Chapter

Abstract

End products must conform to the characteristics defined in their specifications. These characteristics include sensory properties, which are essential because they influence the choice and the preference of consumers. It is important to take them into account for their control when manufacturing products. Therefore, in food industry, these properties must be controlled close to the manufacturing line by implementing adapted measurement and process control.
