A dataset of annotated free comments on the sensory perception of madeleines for benchmarking text mining techniques

This dataset was created to investigate the impact of data collection modes and pre-processing techniques on the quality of free comment data related to consumers' sensory perceptions. A total of 200 consumers were recruited and divided into two groups of 100. Each group evaluated six madeleine samples (five distinct samples and one replicate) in a controlled sensory analysis laboratory, using different free comment data collection modes. Consumers in the first group provided only words or short expressions, while those in the second group used complete sentences. Additionally, participants reported their liking for each sample.
