This study evaluated six methods to detect errors in cheesemaking production data, crucial for quality and profitability. Combining single-variable and multivariable analyses effectively identifies unreliable data in large industrial databases.

Area of Science:

  • Dairy Science
  • Food Process Engineering
  • Data Analytics

Background:

  • Accurate production data is vital for monitoring milk components, cheese yield, and overall profitability in cheesemaking.
  • Reliable data underpins effective process analysis, modeling, and control, directly impacting cheese quality.
  • Industrial cheesemaking generates vast datasets requiring robust methods for data integrity validation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the efficacy of six distinct methods for identifying erroneous data within industrial cheesemaking production databases.
  • To compare the performance of single-variable and multivariable statistical techniques in outlier detection.
  • To identify specific variables or data points exhibiting low reliability in large-scale production records.

Main Methods:

  • Applied statistical criteria (mean +/- 3.6 SD) to single variable distributions for outlier detection.
  • Utilized Fourier series modeling for seasonal variations in milk and whey components.
  • Employed multivariate Mahalanobis outlier analysis and fat mass balance calculations for production outlier identification.

Main Results:

  • Successfully detected single vat outliers and outlier productions using the evaluated methods.
  • Identified specific variables, such as manually registered times, as having low data reliability.
  • Demonstrated that single-variable and multivariable methods are complementary for data validation.

Conclusions:

  • A combination of single-variable and multivariable methods provides a comprehensive approach to validating cheesemaking databases.
  • Identifying and addressing erroneous data is essential for accurate process monitoring and control.
  • The study highlights the importance of data quality assessment in industrial food production systems.
