SRS Technologies: A Cocktail Approach For Travel Package Recommendation

The document proposes a system for personalized travel package recommendation. It analyzes the characteristics of travel packages and develops a tourist-area-season topic (TAST) model to represent packages and tourists by topic distributions conditioned on tourist characteristics and package features like location and season. A cocktail recommendation approach is then proposed based on the TAST model, considering additional factors like tourist seasonal behavior and package prices. The TAST model effectively captures travel data characteristics and the cocktail approach performs better than traditional techniques for travel package recommendation.

A Cocktail Approach for Travel Package Recommendation


ABSTRACT:
Recent years have witnessed an increased interest in recommender systems. Despite
significant progress in this field, there still remain numerous avenues to explore. Indeed,
this paper provides a study of exploiting online travel information for personalized travel
package recommendation. A critical challenge along this line is to address the unique
characteristics of travel data, which distinguish travel packages from traditional items for
recommendation. To that end, in this paper, we first analyze the characteristics of the
existing travel packages and develop a tourist-area-season topic (TAST) model. This
TAST model can represent travel packages and tourists by different topic distributions,
where the topic extraction is conditioned on both the tourists and the intrinsic features
(i.e., locations, travel seasons) of the landscapes. Then, based on this topic model
representation, we propose a cocktail approach to generate the lists for personalized
travel package recommendation. Furthermore, we extend the TAST model to the touristrelation-area-season topic (TRAST) model for capturing the latent relationships among
the tourists in each travel group. Finally, we evaluate the TAST model, the TRAST
model, and the cocktail recommendation approach on the real-world travel package data.
Experimental results show that the TAST model can effectively capture the unique
characteristics of the travel data and the cocktail approach is, thus, much more effective
than traditional recommendation techniques for travel package recommendation. Also, by
considering tourist relationships, the TRAST model can be used as an effective
assessment for travel group formation.

EXISTING SYSTEM:
There are many technical and domain challenges inherent in designing and implementing
an effective recommender system for personalized travel package recommendation.
1.
Travel data are much fewer and sparser than traditional items, such as movies for
recommendation, because the costs for a travel are much more expensive than for
watching a movie.
2.
Every travel package consists of many landscapes (places of interest and
attractions), and, thus, has intrinsic complex spatio-temporal relationships. For example,
a travel package only includes the landscapes which are geographically colocated
together. Also, different travel packages are usually developed for different travel

D

seasons. Therefore, the landscapes in a travel package usually have spatial temporal
autocorrelations.
3.
Traditional recommender systems usually rely on user explicit ratings. However,
for travel data, the user ratings are usually not conveniently available.

DISADVANTAGES OF EXISTING SYSTEM:

Recommendation has a long period of stable value.


To replace the old ones based on the interests of the tourists.
A values of travel packages can easily depreciate over time and a package
usually only lasts for a certain period of time

PROPOSED SYSTEM:
In this paper, we aim to make personalized travel package recommendations for the
tourists. Thus, the users are the tourists and the items are the existing packages, and we
exploit a real-world travel data set provided by a travels for building recommender
systems. we develop a tourist-area-season topic (TAST) model, which can represent
travel packages and tourists by different topic distributions. In the TAST model, the
extraction of topics is conditioned on both the tourists and the intrinsic features (i.e.,
locations, travel seasons) of the landscapes. Based on this TAST model, a cocktail
approach is developed for personalized travel package recommendation by considering
some additional factors including the seasonal behaviors of tourists, the prices of travel
packages, and the cold start problem of new packages.

ADVANTAGES OF PROPOSED SYSTEM:

Represent the content of the travel packages and the interests of the tourists.
TAST model can effectively capture the unique characteristics of travel data.
The cocktail recommendation approach performs much better than traditional
techniques.
