It is often difficult for individual tourists to make a sightseeing tour plan because they do not have prior knowledge about the destination. Although several systems have been developed for assisting the user's tour planning, these systems lack interactivity, while demanding a lot of data input from the user. In this paper, we introduce a new computer-aided tour planning system, called CT-Planner, which realizes collaborative tour planning. The system provides several tour plans with different characters and asks the user to give feedback. The feedback is utilized by the system for inferring the user's preferences and then revising the tour plans. This cycle is repeated until the user is satisfied with the final plan. Thanks to this cycle the user does not have to register his profiles in advance. In addition, the system allows the user to specify his special requests, which leads to a more satisfying experience of computer-aided tour planning. © 2010 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
