Abstract

In this study, we developed an algorithm for automatic travel itinerary planning based on expert recommendation. The proposed algorithm generates an itinerary by patterning a number of travel routes based on the automatic itinerary generation method based on the routes recommended by travel experts. To evaluate the proposed algorithm, we generated 30 itinerary for Singapore, Bankok, and Da Nang using both algorithms and analyzed the mean difference of trip distances with t-test and interater reliability of those itineraries. The result shows that the itineraries based on the proposed algorithm is not different from that of VRP(Vehicle routing problem) algorithm and interater reliability is high enough to show that the proposed algorithm is effective enough for real-world usage.

자유 여행자들이 증가함에 따라 다양한 자동여정생성 서비스가 생겨났지만, 자동여정생성 방법에 대한 연구는 아직 활발히 진행되지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이미 개발된 전문가 추천 경로를 바탕으로 여행지별 선호점수를 수집하고 거리와 선호에 따라 여정을 자동생성하는 알고리듬을 개발하였다. 제안된 여정생성 알고리듬을 성능을 검증하기 위해 싱가포르, 방콕 및 다낭의 세 여행지에 대해서 30개의 여정을 본 연구에서 제안한 자동여정생성 알고리듬과 차량경로문제 알고리듬을 사용하여 생성한 두 여정 데이터의 평균 이동거리를 t-검정과 평가자간 신뢰도를 통해 제안된 알고리듬의 효율성과 효과성을 비교하였다. 실험결과, 제안 알고리듬을 기반으로 한 여정이 차량경로문제(Vehicle routing problem: VRP) 알고리듬의 여정과 다르지 않아 제안된 알고리듬의 효율성을 입증하였고. 두 여행전문가의 정성적 평가를 통해, 제안된 알고리듬으로 생성된 여정이 실제 사용에 충분히 효과적임을 보였다.
