An Intelligent Customization Framework for Tourist Trip Design Problems
In the era of the experience economy, “customized tours” and “self-guided tours” have become mainstream. This paper proposes an end-to-end framework for solving the tourist trip design problems (TTDP) using deep reinforcement learning (DRL) and data analysis. The proposed approach considers heterogeneous tourist preferences, customized requirements, and stochastic traffic times in real applications. With various heuristics methods, our approach is scalable without retraining for every new problem instance, which can automatically adapt the solution when the problem constraint changes slightly. We aim to provide websites or users with software tools that make it easier to solve TTDP, promoting the development of smart tourism and customized tourism
Hyperspectral Image Restoration via Total Variation Regularized Low-rank Tensor Decomposition
Hyperspectral images (HSIs) are often corrupted by a mixture of several types
of noise during the acquisition process, e.g., Gaussian noise, impulse noise,
dead lines, stripes, and many others. Such complex noise could degrade the
quality of the acquired HSIs, limiting the precision of the subsequent
processing. In this paper, we present a novel tensor-based HSI restoration
approach by fully identifying the intrinsic structures of the clean HSI part
and the mixed noise part respectively. Specifically, for the clean HSI part, we
use tensor Tucker decomposition to describe the global correlation among all
bands, and an anisotropic spatial-spectral total variation (SSTV)
regularization to characterize the piecewise smooth structure in both spatial
and spectral domains. For the mixed noise part, we adopt the norm
regularization to detect the sparse noise, including stripes, impulse noise,
and dead pixels. Despite that TV regulariztion has the ability of removing
Gaussian noise, the Frobenius norm term is further used to model heavy Gaussian
noise for some real-world scenarios. Then, we develop an efficient algorithm
for solving the resulting optimization problem by using the augmented Lagrange
multiplier (ALM) method. Finally, extensive experiments on simulated and
real-world noise HSIs are carried out to demonstrate the superiority of the
proposed method over the existing state-of-the-art ones.Comment: 15 pages, 20 figure
