A Novel Approach for Forecasting Tourist Arrivals Using Web Search Data and Artificial Intelligence

The development of economic activity has been matched by growth in the tourism industry. According to information, the tourism industry is growing and both the number of domestic and international tourists visiting each year is expanding. Because of this quick expansion, there are now critical co...
