Abstract

This paper describes an applied approach using an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System to formulate the contents of novel diary functional food. In the development stage for a new functional food, it is required a careful balancing in the product ingredients in order to be achieved not only a healthily effect but an acceptable sensory properties. This imposes the solving of multiparametric task, how to select an optimal product composition in order to obtain a products with a great percent of consumer acceptability. Since, the main sensory characteristics of the products can be assessed by trained panelists and encoded by a numerical estimates, the task can be solved by a simple fuzzy input-output mapping, in order to conclude how each component of the product affects a selected sensory characteristic.
