Summary: Principal component analysis (PCA) was used to investigate the effects of different ingredients on the sensory descriptors of a spread based on pistachio oil. PCA revealed that adhesiveness, hardness, oiliness, and fluidness were the most significant factors. The power law model was found to be more accurate in fitting the samples. The optimum combination of variables (15% pistachio oil, 7.5% cocoa butter, 0.3% xanthan gum, and 1% distilled monoglyceride) produced desirable spreads that mimic commercial spreads.

Summary: Instrumental analysis revealed differences in aroma components of Chinese steamed breads made with traditional sourdoughs from different origins. However, studies on the flavor characteristics of these breads using human olfactory perception are lacking. This study collected eleven Chinese steamed breads made with different traditional sourdoughs to develop a lexicon and a quantitative descriptive analysis (QDA) method for sensory evaluation. The QDA method accurately evaluated the intensities of flavor attributes, and cluster analysis categorized the breads into four groups based on their flavor characteristics.

Summary: This paper proposes an approach for investigating paired comparisons between products and their uncertainties in the principal components using the truncated total bootstrap procedure. Theoretical contributions are provided to justify the proposal. A new matrix operator and a procedure called crossdiff-unfolding are introduced to facilitate the proofs and analysis. The practical advantages of the proposed methods for practitioners are described.

Summary: Dimension reduction techniques like PCA, PLS, and CCA are extensively used in the analysis of high-dimensional omics data. Integrative analysis, which outperforms meta-analysis and individual-data analysis, has been developed for multiple datasets with compatible designs. We developed the R package iSFun to facilitate integrative dimension reduction analysis, offering comprehensive analysis options under different models and penalties.

Summary: Principal component analysis (PCA) is commonly used to summarize and explore multivariate data sets, including sensory evaluation data sets. This study proposes a method to conduct PCA on a results matrix where only a subset of paired comparisons is of interest. The proposed approach is illustrated with two data sets from trained sensory panels. The results show that the PCA conducted with the proposed method extracts more variance from the relevant paired comparisons and better separates the relevant pairs compared to conventional PCA.

Summary: A novel robust kernel principal component analysis method with optimal mean (RKPCA-OM) is proposed to enhance the robustness of KPCA by automatically eliminating the optimal mean. The theoretical proof guarantees the convergence of the algorithm and the obtained optimal subspaces and means. Exhaustive experimental results validate the superiority of the proposed method.

Summary: The study proposed a PCA comprehensive evaluation model based on selected key physicochemical indicators to assess the sensory quality of matcha. The results showed that the model achieved superior performance with high correlation coefficients in both calibration and prediction sets for overall sensory quality. This work demonstrated the potential of LASSO-PCA comprehensive evaluation as an objective protocol for predicting matcha sensory quality.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between the physicochemical properties and enzymatic hydrolyzability of hydrothermal pretreated lignocellulose through correlation analysis and principal component analysis. The results showed that cellulose content was the major factor affecting carbohydrate conversion, and the initial hydrolysis rate and carbohydrate conversion could be well predicted using principal component analysis.

Summary: In this study, a comprehensive quality evaluation method for blueberry wine was established by analyzing eleven physicochemical indexes. Principal component analysis showed that the first three principal components accounted for 85.73% of the total quality variability. The consistent ranking between the quality evaluation model and sensory evaluation test verified the reliability of the model. Additionally, ultrasonic treatment of blueberry wine resulted in higher scores, indicating changes in sensory quality with high sensitivity. This study provides a theoretical basis for the comprehensive quality evaluation of blueberry wines and guidance for consumer choices.

Summary: Consumption of vegetarian pizza is on the rise worldwide due to the increasing popularity of vegetarian diets, yet a proper description of its sensory attributes is lacking in the existing scientific literature. This study objectively characterized the sensory attributes of vegetarian pizza using statistical tools, identifying five principal components that explained 93% of the variation in sensory data. These findings provide valuable information for product evaluation and process improvement.

Summary: Raman spectroscopy has been investigated for its potential in analyzing solid dosage forms of Losartan potassium in the pharmaceutical field. The spectral data showed a gradual change in Raman spectral features associated with the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) of Losartan potassium as the concentration changed. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was used for classification, and Partial Least Square Regression (PLSR) analysis was performed for quantitative analysis. The results demonstrated that Raman spectroscopy can be used for quick and reliable quantitative analysis of pharmaceutical solids.

Summary: The study found that mushrooms can enhance the sensory quality of roasted and steamed egg whites by introducing characteristic sensory attributes from mushrooms. Mushroom variety and proportion with egg whites have significant impacts on egg white sensory properties. The research contributes to understanding the impact of mushrooms on egg white sensory profile and serves as a guide in incorporating mushrooms in product development.
