Abstract

Discovering and recommending points of interest are drawing more attention to meet the increasing demand from personalized tours. In this paper, we propose and evaluate a new fuzzy-based system for decision of sightseeing spots considering four input parameters: Access Convenience (AC), Lodging Arrangements (LA), Natural Scenery (NS) and Visiting Cost (VC) to decide the sightseeing spots Visit or Not Visit (VNV). We evaluate the proposed system by computer simulations. From the simulations results, we conclude that when AC, LA and NS are increased, the VNV is increased. But, when VC is increased, the VNV is decreased.
