• Abstract: When traveling to an unfamiliar city for holidays, tourists often rely on guidebooks, travel websites, or recommendation systems to plan their daily itineraries and explore popular points of interest (POIs). However, these approaches may lack optimization in terms of time feasibility, localities, and user preferences. In this paper, we propose the SBTRec algorithm: a BERT-based Trajectory Recommendation with sentiment analysis, for recommending personalized sequences of POIs as itineraries. The key contributions of this work include analyzing users' check-ins and uploaded photos to understand the relationship between POI visits and distance. We introduce SBTRec, which encompasses sentiment analysis to improve recommendation accuracy by understanding users' preferences and satisfaction levels from reviews and comments about different POIs. Our proposed algorithms are evaluated against other sequence prediction methods using datasets from 8 cities. The results demonstrate that SBTRec achieves an average F1 score of 61.45%, outperforming baseline algorithms. The paper further discusses the flexibility of the SBTRec algorithm, its ability to adapt to different scenarios and cities without modification, and its potential for extension by incorporating additional information for more reliable predictions. Overall, SBTRec provides personalized and relevant POI recommendations, enhancing tourists' overall trip experiences. Future work includes fine-tuning personalized embeddings for users, with evaluation of users' comments on POIs,~to further enhance prediction accuracy.

  We develop a pessimistic framework for DPO by introducing preference uncertainty penalization schemes. The penalization serves as a correction to the loss which attenuates the loss gradient for uncertain samples. We show improved overall performance compared to vanilla DPO, as well as better completions on prompts from high-uncertainty chosen/rejected responses.

  Existing works assume the available POI check-ins reported by users are the ground-truth depiction of user behaviors. In real application scenarios, the check-in data can be rather unreliable due to both subjective and objective causes. We propose a Bayes-enhanced Multi-view Attention Network to address the uncertainty factors of the user check-ins.

• BTRec: BERT-Based Trajectory Recommendation for Personalized Tours [6.753123338256321]
  Many tour recommendation tools only take into account a limited number of factors, such as popular Points of Interest (POIs) and routing constraints. We propose an iterative algorithm in this paper, namely: BTREC (BERT-based Trajectory Recommendation), that extends from the POIBERT embedding algorithm to recommend personalized itineraries on POIs. Our recommendation system can create a travel itinerary that maximizes POIs visited, while also taking into account user preferences for categories of POIs and time availability.

In particular, the prediction of the next travel mode is designed as an auxiliary task to help guide the network's learning. Our experiments show that the proposed method significantly outperforms other state-of-the-art next location prediction methods.
