Software for analysis of sensory and consumer data
Project description
Copyright © 2009-2015 Thomas Graff.
Overview
ConsumerCheck is a software for statistical analysis of data from sensory and consumer science, or more precisely data that is acquired from consumer trials and descriptive analysis performed by trained sensory panels. ConsumerCheck has a an easy-to-use graphical user interface that makes the statistical methods available to users that have little or no programming skills.
Installation
I wish the answer is:
pip install consumercheck
But it is not that simple. ConsumerCheck uses numpy that is not easily automatically installed. Following is a list of the python modules that have to be present for ConsumerCheck to work.

In addition ConsumerCheck uses the R environment for statistical computing. So this have to be installed on you system for ConsumerCheck to function properly. There also have to be installed some libraries in the R environment:
lmerTest ver 2.0-11
MS Windows and Mac OS X
If you are on MS Window or Mac OS X the easiest you can do is to install the Anaconda python environment from Continiuum Analytic.
Then you have to use the Conda installer to add som python packages:
conda install chaco
ConsumerCheck can be installed with pip:
pip install consumercheck
Linux
The following installation procecure is tested on Debian Jessie 8.2.
On the shell commandline:
sudo apt-get --no-install-recommends install python-pip python-pandas python-chaco python-qt4-gl python-networkx python-configparser r-base r-cran-lme4 r-cran-numderiv r-cran-hmisc r-cran-gplots r-cran-nloptr r-cran-plyr r-cran-ggplot2 sudo pip install consumercheck
Then you have to start R and run the following commands:
install.packages(c("pbkrtest")) pkgurl <- "http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/lmerTest/lmerTest_2.0-11.tar.gz" install.packages(pkgurl, repos=NULL, type="source")
Running ConsumerCheck
ConsumerCheck is started by typing ccgui on the command line.
