Sensometrics in short

Sensometrics is the scientific area that applies mathematical and statistical methods to problems from sensory and consumer science. The main aims of the Sensometrics conferences are:

  • to increase the awareness of the special methodologies and statistical methods used in analysis of sensory and consumer science data,
  • to improve the communication and co-operation between persons interested in the scientific principles, methods and applications of sensometrics,
  • to serve as an interdisciplinary meeting to disseminate scientific knowledge on the field of sensometrics.
