Optimizing Travel Itineraries with AI Algorithms in a Microservices Architecture: Balancing Cost, Time, Preferences, and Sustainability

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

The objective of this research is how an implementation of AI algorithms in the microservices architecture enhances travel itineraries by cost, time, user preferences, and environmental sustainability. It uses machine learning models for both cost forecasting and personalization, genetic algorithm for optimization of the itinerary, and heuristics for sustainability checking. Primary evaluated parameters consist of latency, ability to satisfy user preferences, cost and environmental concern. The experimental results demonstrate an average of 4.5 seconds of response time on 1000 concurrent users and 92% of user preferences accuracy. The cost efficiency is proved, with 95% of provided trips being within the limits of the budget declared by the user. The system also implements some measures to alleviate negative externalities related to travel and 60% of offered travel plans had green options incorporated, resulting in the average 15% lower carbon emissions than the traditional travel plans offered. The genetic algorithm with time complexity O(g.p.f) provides the optimal solution in 100 generations. Every iteration improves the quality of the solution by 5%, thus enabling its effective use in optimization problems where time is measured in seconds. Finally, the system is designed to be fault-tolerant with functional 99.9% availability which allows the provision of services even when requirements are exceeded. Travel optimization platform is turned dynamic and efficient by this microservices based architecture which provides enhanced scaling, allows asynchronous communication and real time changes. Because of the incorporation of Ai, cost control and eco-friendliness approaches, the system addresses the different user needs in the present days travel business.


FairDgcl: Fairness-aware Recommendation with Dynamic Graph Contrastive Learning

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

As trustworthy AI continues to advance, the fairness issue in recommendations has received increasing attention. A recommender system is considered unfair when it produces unequal outcomes for different user groups based on user-sensitive attributes (e.g., age, gender). Some researchers have proposed data augmentation-based methods aiming at alleviating user-level unfairness by altering the skewed distribution of training data among various user groups. Despite yielding promising results, they often rely on fairness-related assumptions that may not align with reality, potentially reducing the data quality and negatively affecting model effectiveness. To tackle this issue, in this paper, we study how to implement high-quality data augmentation to improve recommendation fairness. Specifically, we propose FairDgcl, a dynamic graph adversarial contrastive learning framework aiming at improving fairness in recommender system. First, FairDgcl develops an adversarial contrastive network with a view generator and a view discriminator to learn generating fair augmentation strategies in an adversarial style. Then, we propose two dynamic, learnable models to generate contrastive views within contrastive learning framework, which automatically fine-tune the augmentation strategies. Meanwhile, we theoretically show that FairDgcl can simultaneously generate enhanced representations that possess both fairness and accuracy. Lastly, comprehensive experiments conducted on four real-world datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed FairDgcl.


Bizarre New York laws include restrictions, penalties for taking a selfie with a tiger

FOX News

NYS mental health committee member Patricia Canzoneri-Fitzpatrick on the bipartisan efforts to pass legislation to protect children online. Every state has its own set of strange laws still technically on the books that may surprise you, including New York. When it comes to strange laws in a state, many have little evidence to back them, with origins unknown, while others are ones you can still find in written law. Strange laws are often head-scratchers in terms of trying to figure out why the law was created in the first place. Below are a few examples of strange laws in New York.


Are you TERRIBLE at dating apps? It could be a hidden sign of a common mental condition...

Daily Mail - Science & tech

Gone are the days of simply meeting people in the pub or through friends and when Hinge was merely a joint attached to a door. Instead, we're forced to swipe right endlessly to search for our soulmate. But with two million Brits estimated to be living with undiagnosed ADHD, being unlucky in love online could be a potential sign of the condition, new research suggests. Experts found over a fifth of singletons with the mental health condition are more likely to be feel overwhelmed by dating apps than non-ADHD daters. According to the probe, by dating app Hinge, three in four ADHD daters also report feeling misunderstood using them.


Personalized Recommendation Systems using Multimodal, Autonomous, Multi Agent Systems

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

This paper describes a highly developed personalised recommendation system using multimodal, autonomous, multi-agent systems. The system focuses on the incorporation of futuristic AI tech and LLMs like Gemini-1.5- pro and LLaMA-70B to improve customer service experiences especially within e-commerce. Our approach uses multi agent, multimodal systems to provide best possible recommendations to its users. The system is made up of three agents as a whole. The first agent recommends products appropriate for answering the given question, while the second asks follow-up questions based on images that belong to these recommended products and is followed up with an autonomous search by the third agent. It also features a real-time data fetch, user preferences-based recommendations and is adaptive learning. During complicated queries the application processes with Symphony, and uses the Groq API to answer quickly with low response times. It uses a multimodal way to utilize text and images comprehensively, so as to optimize product recommendation and customer interaction.


Near-Optimal Algorithm for Non-Stationary Kernelized Bandits

arXiv.org Machine Learning

Kernelized bandit (KB) problem [Srinivas et al., 2010], also called Gaussian process bandit or Bayesian optimization, is one of the important sequential decision-making problems where one seeks to minimize the regret under an unknown reward function via sequentially acquiring function evaluations. As the name suggests, in the KB problem, the underlying reward function is assumed to be an element of reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) induced by a known fixed kernel function. KB has been applied in many applications, such as materials discovery [Ueno et al., 2016], drug discovery [Korovina et al., 2020], and robotics [Berkenkamp et al., 2023]. In addition, the near-optimal KB algorithms, whose regret upper bound matches the regret lower bound derived in Scarlett et al. [2017], have been shown [Camilleri et al., 2021, Salgia et al., 2021, Li and Scarlett, 2022, Salgia et al., 2024]. Non-stationary KB [Bogunovic et al., 2016] considers the optimization under a non-stationary environment; that is, the reward function may change over time within some RKHS. This modification is crucial in many practical applications where an objective function varies over time, such as financial markets [Heaton and Lucas, 1999] and recommender systems [Hariri et al., 2015]. For example, Zhou and Shroff [2021], Deng et al. [2022] have proposed upper confidence bound (UCB)-based algorithms for the non-stationary KB problem and derived the upper bound of the cumulative regret. Recently, Hong et al. [2023] have proposed an optimization-based KB


Information for Conversation Generation: Proposals Utilising Knowledge Graphs

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

LLMs are frequently used tools for conversational generation. Without additional information LLMs can generate lower quality responses due to lacking relevant content and hallucinations, as well as the perception of poor emotional capability, and an inability to maintain a consistent character. Knowledge graphs are commonly used forms of external knowledge and may provide solutions to these challenges. This paper introduces three proposals, utilizing knowledge graphs to enhance LLM generation. Firstly, dynamic knowledge graph embeddings and recommendation could allow for the integration of new information and the selection of relevant knowledge for response generation. Secondly, storing entities with emotional values as additional features may provide knowledge that is better emotionally aligned with the user input. Thirdly, integrating character information through narrative bubbles would maintain character consistency, as well as introducing a structure that would readily incorporate new information.
