吸引力中心性：用于旅游规划的新中心度公式

Öz

本研究旨在为有效旅游规划中的旅游目的地建立一个新的中心度公式。基于网络分析，研究结果提供了从我们的基本算法中得出的几种中心度测量公式，我们称之为有效旅游规划中的吸引力中心度。由于一些旅游热点的景点会对每个目的地的中心度得分产生影响，因此可以利用这些景点来根据空间模式进行更有效的旅行规划。有鉴于此，我们还讨论了对未来研究和目的地管理机构的若干启示。

Attractiveness Centrality: A new centrality formula for travel planning

Abstract

This current study aims to establish a new centrality formula for tourism destinations in effective travel planning. Based on network analysis, the results provide several formulas for measuring centrality derived from our basic algorithm, which we call the attractiveness centrality for effective travel planning. Since the attractions at some tourist hup-points have an impact on the centrality scores of each destination, they can be utilised for more effective trip planning based on spatial patterns. With this in mind, several implications for future studies and destination authorities were also discussed.
