Abstract

In the context of globalization and informatization, international tourism service trade has become an important part of the global economy. As changes in tourism demand are affected by multiple factors such as economic situation, policy adjustments, and consumer behavior, traditional demand forecasting methods have been unable to cope with complex market changes. Based on the convolutional neural network (CNN) model, this study segmented and forecasted the international tourism service trade market. Through multi-dimensional market data, the model can automatically extract features from the data, effectively identify the potential laws of market demand changes, and provide accurate demand forecasts. Experimental results show that the CNN model has high accuracy in predicting the macro trends of global tourism demand and demand changes in major markets. However, the model has certain errors in dealing with short-term market fluctuations and markets with slow economic recovery. To this end, future research can optimize CNN by combining other deep learning models to improve the prediction accuracy and computational efficiency of the model. The study provides a scientific basis for decision-making in the tourism industry and promotes the sustainable development of the global tourism industry.
