AI predicts Airbnb prices with 69% accuracy
One needn't be an oracle to forecast Airbnb listings prices — AI models fed customer reviews and rental features will do the trick. That's the conclusion drawn by a team of graduate students at Stanford, who investigate in a paper on Arxiv.org ("Airbnb Price Prediction Using Machine Learning and Sentiment Analysis") systems leveraging machine learning and natural language processing to anticipate future Airbnb rates. Alongside the paper, they made available their optimized models on GitHub.
