This workshop on Measuring and Reporting Descriptive Panel Performance first introduces indicators designed to capture the desirable attributes of descriptive data collected by a trained sensory panel (agreement, repeatability and discrimination power). A suite of statistical tools are used to depict and quantify the performance of the panel.

Real-life case studies are used to illustrate the principles of the statistical tools and the insights that may be extracted from the data. 

Discover a powerful multivariate technique for mapping the consensus among assessors rating series of products/concepts, and for quantifying and mapping the redundancy in sensory descriptors.
