Abstract

The rapid expansion of smart hotels in recent years has aroused researchers' interest in their competitiveness. While previous research has identified factors influencing the competitiveness of smart hotels, little effort has been devoted to understanding the specific competitive strengths and weaknesses of individual smart hotels. This study addresses the research gap by proposing a novel artificial intelligence framework that analyzes the competitive strengths and weaknesses of smart hotels based on online review data. The framework employs aspect-level sentiment analysis, outlying aspect mining, and theory of lodging to identify detailed competitive strengths and weaknesses of smart hotels from different perspectives. The effectiveness of the proposed framework is demonstrated through a case study of major smart hotels worldwide. The results extend the theory of lodging by incorporating new factors related to smart hotels and provide valuable insights that can help smart hotel practitioners develop strategies to enhance competitiveness at the firm, brand, and market levels.

根据在线评论发现智能酒店的竞争力

近年来，智能酒店的迅速发展引起了研究人员对其竞争力的兴趣。虽然以往的研究已经发现了影响智能酒店竞争力的因素，但很少有人致力于了解单个智能酒店的具体竞争优势和劣势。本研究针对这一研究空白，提出了一种基于在线评论数据分析智能酒店竞争优劣势的新型人工智能框架。该框架采用了方面级情感分析、离题方面挖掘和住宿理论，从不同角度详细识别了智能酒店的竞争优势和劣势。通过对全球主要智能酒店的案例研究，证明了所提框架的有效性。研究结果扩展了住宿理论，纳入了与智能酒店相关的新因素，并提供了有价值的见解，可帮助智能酒店从业者制定战略，以增强企业、品牌和市场层面的竞争力。
