    A mixed model applied to joint analysis in experiments with coffee blends using the least squares method
    (Universidade Federal do Ceará, 2019) Paulino, Allana Lívia Beserra; Cirillo, Marcelo Angelo; Ribeiro, Diego Egídio; Borém, Flávio Meira; Matias, Gabriel Carvalho
    The aim of the present study was to propose a mixed model for a sensory analysis of four experiments with blends of different standards of quality, including the species Coffea Arabica L. and Coffea Canephora. Each experiment differed in the proportions used to formulate the blends and the concentrations used in preparing the beverages, these being 7% and 10% coffee powder for each 100 ml of water. The response variables under analysis were the sensory characteristics of the beverage found in an assessment made by a group of trained tasters, considering taste, bitterness and a final score. Each description followed a numerical rating scale of intensity that ranged from 0 to 10. The model was implemented using the least squares method; this led to the conclusion that including random parameters in the model, represented by the experiments, made it possible to compare the effect of each component simultaneously for each of the experiments.

    Analysis of defects in coffee beans compared to biplots for simultaneous tables
    (Universidade Federal do Ceará, 2018-01) Brighenti, Carla Regina Guimarães; Cirillo, Marcelo Angelo
    The demand for high quality coffee has become a consolidated criterion to achieve the best prices. Currently, cooperatives evaluate the coffee beans mainly through the particle size and the number of defects in the sample. This evaluation type generates counting data that originates contingency tables from different periods or groups involving the same variables in the row and column and there may be interest in knowing if two tables are related and how much are related. These are the so-called combined tables. Statistical analysis techniques normally employed do not include categorical data in the combined tables. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of different types of defects in samples of large flat coffee beans in two different harvests through the construction of biplots. The decomposition theory in single simultaneous values of double entry contingency tables was used. The results of defect counting in beans of 24 coffee samples from southern Minas Gerais, Brazil, were evaluated in the 2014 and 2015 harvests. Moreover, the association among defect types, considered within different total defect proportions in the sample, was verified based on the percentage in 17/18 sieves. It was also evaluated the relative sums of squares from the similarity and dissimilarity among the harvests. It is concluded that the simultaneous analysis technique allows better visualizing the common behavior and alterations among different harvests, distinguishing the defect types associated with each harvest and among different proportions of large flat beans.
