  • Publication number: 20150106285
    Abstract: A method for providing mood-based analytics for collaborative travel planning for a group containing one or more group member includes receiving a priority, a target happiness index, and mood-based input for each group member. A target group happiness index is calculated based on an aggregate of the target happiness indexes weighted by the priority for each group member. A current group happiness index is calculated based on an aggregate of the mood-based input weighted by the priority for each group member. The activity preferences for the group are determined based on the aggregate of the mood-based input weighted by the priority for each group member. External environmental data that influences the current group happiness and the activity preferences is collected. A group itinerary based on the current group happiness index, the activity preferences for the group, and the external environmental data is generated to meet the target group happiness index.
