Travel and hospitality industry are adopting high end technology to reach out their customers. New levels of disruption are being introduced using Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning techniques of research. In the realm of physical and tangible aspects of service, since this sector have vast amounts of data available application of these techniques are being tested to explore various aspect of the customer experience. Data analysis algorithms like machine learning have been used by firms across the world to analyze these data and understand various facets of customer experience. However, these algorithms suffer from blackbox issues where businesses do not know how the outcome was achieved and if the analysis is biased in some way. In this study, we utilize an explainable machine learning approach on Airbnb data to understand solve two challenges associated with large-scale marketing data. First, we identify and prioritize the customer experience factors like bedrooms, host status, host response rate etc. that have an impact on product pricing. Secondly, we build and test an explainable predictive model on the same. Our research has significant implications for academia and industry in identifying applications of explainable algorithms in decision-making. |
