Multi-step ahead tourism demand forecasting: The perspective of the learning using privileged information paradigm

作者:

Highlights:

• Multi-step ahead demand forecasting is an important and cutting-edge research topic.

• An effective forecasting approach incorporating privileged information is proposed.

• The new paradigm (termed learning using privileged information (LUPI)) is imployed.

• LUPI can efficiently grasp and model nonlinear characteristics of tourism data.

• The empirical results verify its superiority and robustness with different samples.
