Analysis System of MICE Tourism Economic Development Strategy Based on Machine Learning Algorithm

The environmental effect of the meetings, incentives, conventions, and exhibitions (MICE) industry is as extensive as its economic impact. Visitors attending events use a wide range of service providers, including airline car rental firms, restaurants, hotels, theaters, and tour operators. Traditionally used tourism demand forecasting approaches rely heavily on univariate time series and multivariate regression models. Although these function-based prediction systems have demonstrated some effectiveness in forecasting tourism, they are unable to accurately capture the link between tourist demand and supply as a feed-forward neural network does (FFNN). Research has shown that an FFNN can outperform regression and time-series algorithms when it comes to forecasting tourism data. This research, for the first time, expands the use of neural networks in tourist demand creation by combining a hybrid FFNN and chimp optimization learning algorithm (i.e., FFNN-ChOA) into a nonlinear tourism demand dataset. In terms of predicting accuracy, FFNN-ChOA surpasses traditional backpropagation neural networks, regression models, and time-series models.
