Predicting Tourist Spot by Using Machine Learning Approach

Abstract

Tourism plays significant role for enhancing economic potential worldwide. The natural beauty and historical interests of Bangladesh remarked as a major tourist destination for the international tourists. In this study, we target to propose a Machine learning based application to recognize historical interests and tourist spots from an images. Making use of on-device Neural Engine comes with modern devices makes the application robust and internet free user experience. One of the difficult tasks to collect real images from tourist sites. Our collected images were in different sizes because of using different smartphones. We used following machine learning algorithms– Convolution Neural Network (CNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). In this proposed framework, tourists can effortlessly detect their targeted places that can boost the tourism sector of Bangladesh. For this regard, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) achieved best accuracy.
