Abstract Recommending personalized travel routes from sparse, implicit feedback poses a significant challenge, as conventional systems often struggle with information overload and fail to capture the complex, sequential nature of user preferences. To address this, we propose a Conditional Generative Adversarial Network (CGAN) that generates diverse and highly relevant itineraries. Our approach begins by constructing a conditional vector that encapsulates a user’s profile. This vector uniquely fuses embeddings from a Heterogeneous Information Network (HIN) to model complex user-place-route relationships, a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) to capture sequential path dynamics, and Neural Collaborative Filtering (NCF) to incorporate… More >

Abstract Tourist routes recommendation is a way to improve the tourist experience and the efficiency of tourism companies. Session-based methods divide all users’ interaction histories into the same number sessions with fixed time window and treat the user preference as time sequences. There have few or even no interaction in some sessions for some users because of the high sparsity and temporal characteristics of tourist data. That lead to many session-based methods can not be applied to routes recommendation due to aggravate the sparsity. In order to better adapt and apply the characteristics of tourism data… More >

Abstract The rapid expansion of GPS-embedded devices has showed the emerging new look of location-based services, enabling such offerings as travel guide services and location-based social networks. One consequence is the accumulation of a rich supply of GPS trajectories, indicating individuals’ historical position. Based on these data, we aim to mine the hot route by using a collaborative tensor calculation method. We present an efficient trajectory data processing model for mining the hot route. In this paper, we rst model the individual’s trajectory log, extract sources and destinations, use map matching to get the corresponding road More >
