How can we create a personalized booking experience that matches a user's vague desires with specific, relevant listings and activities?


Step 1: Understand the User's Need

Turn a vague query like 'somewhere fun for a weekend' into actionable parameters by analyzing its semantic and emotional content.

Step 2: Match Listings to Intent

Find the best matches by measuring the semantic distance between user intent and listing descriptions, going beyond simple keywords.

Step 3: Generate a Creative Itinerary

Synthesize disparate user preferences—like 'modern loft,' 'jazz music,' and 'spicy food'—into a compelling, personalized weekend plan.

Step 4: Anticipate Future Needs

After booking, analyze the itinerary to predict and suggest next steps, like dinner reservations or weather forecasts, creating a seamless experience.

Mathematical Summation

The core logic of the solution.

Semantic Decomposition

Deconstruct the user's vague desire ('fun weekend') into its core semantic and emotional vectors.

f('fun weekend') -> { u, v }

Relational Comparison

Measure the cosine similarity between the user's intent vectors and the vectors of listings/activities to find the closest matches.

cos(u, v_listing)

Creative Synthesis

Blend the vectors of the top-matched listings and user preferences into a novel, cohesive itinerary vector.

blend(c_listing, c_preference) -> c_itinerary
