* Each sample has the form <IDfood1, IDfood2> and has label 1 if IDfood1 is preferred over IDfood2, -1 if IDfood2 is preferred over IDfood1, 0 if there is indifference relationship over IDfood1 and IDfood2  The preference sorts have been translated in two phases:



search of inconsistencies among the three sorts in order to get the "certain" preference relationships.

search of transitivity of preferences among the "certain" couples, giving indifference relationship to those for which no transitivity has been found.

Preparation Time
integer positive number that indicates preparation time of the food expressed in minutes


Ingredient
english name of an ingredient of the recipe


Ingredient ID
ID associated to the ingredient


Weight

...
the columns of ingredients repeats for 18 times, leaving empty spaces when the recipe has no ingredients other than those already entered


Preparation
english name of a preparation performed on the recipe


Preparation ID
ID associated to the preparation


Weight
weight that the preparation has in the composition of the interested recipe


...
the columns of preparations repeats for 5 times similarly to ingredients




in other sheet of the file are reportet all the ingredients, divided in classes and metaclasses, preparations and categories

NOTE: in dataset/foods/TXT/textData.txt ingredients and preparation has been vectorized as follow:



each element of the ingredient vector represent the weight of the ingredient class in the recipe. The weight of an ingredient class in a recipe is collected by sum up the weight of the ingredients owned by that particular ingredient class in the recipe.

each element of the preparation vector represent the weight of the preparation in the recipe.

Note that the Sort-Name and Sort-ID columns are also reported in form of .csv files, respectevely in the folders dataset/survey_answers/sorts/Name and dataset/survey_answers/sorts/ID.

In the file dataset/survey_answer/samples.txt are reported 54 user's orderings in the form of pairwise comparison. Thus for each row correspond the ordering of a user. The ordering is written in the form of pairwise comparison, so each element of the ordering are paired with all others (avoiding simmetries). For instance, given the recipes as their ID:

1; 2; 3

becomes:

1,2; 1,3; 2,3

The file is written following the .csv format. In the file dataset/survey_answer/lables.txt are written the corresponding labels of the couples. The label has value 1 if the first element of the couple is preferred over the second, -1 if the second element is preferred over the first, 0 if there is uncertainity about which of the element is preferred.

SURVEY OF RETURN

In the folder survey of return are reported the .csv files containing the result of survey of return of each user and the theories used to create the respective surveys. The used theories are those obtained after training ILASP both as global and local approximator. In global approximator we considered both the cases in which PCA is involved and not involved (considering only the indirect case with PC=8, 17 when involved). In local approximator we considered only the case in which PCA is involved indirectly with PC = 8 (considering std for gaussian noise equal to 0.1). More detail are reported in the "HOW TO CITE" correlated paper. In the folder are also returned the .las files containing the file used to train ILASP (version 4.2.0).

NOTES

[1]

Each sample has the form <IDfood1, IDfood2> and has label 1 if IDfood1 is preferred over IDfood2, -1 if IDfood2 is preferred over IDfood1, 0 if there is indifference relationship over IDfood1 and IDfood2.

The preference sorts have been translated into pairwise comparison in two phases:



search of inconsistencies among the three sorts in order to get the "certain" preference relationships

search of transitivity of preferences among the "certain" couples, giving indifference relationship to those for which no transitivity has been found.


More details about these two phases and a pseudo-code can be found in the article attached with this dataset

[2]

During the survey we proposed to the user to indicate metaclasses if the particular combination applies for all classes owned by that specific metaclass, or to indicate classes if the particular combination apply only for that specific class. To Identify classes from metaclasses, since their name could be misleading, we denoted classes with the prefix "---". We left this notation also in the final dataset, since could be useful to easily recognize classes from metaclasses withouth looking to the files regarding them.
