This paper proposes a point-of-interest (POI) sequence recommendation algorithm based on BERT-ACNN-GRU to address the issues faced by the existing POI recommendation model in social network large data, such as the difficulty in extracting deep feature information and the low recommendation performance. Firstly, the semantic relationship between a word and its context in the text is combined using the bidirectional encoder representation from transformers (BERT) model to effectively eliminate the influence of word distance and obtain the contextualized word vector. Secondly, a convolutional neural network (CNN) utilizing a gated recurrent unit (GRU) is employed to capture the feature information of the text. Lastly, the attention method is utilized to assign weight scores to various terms in order to provide more attention to particular words and boost the precision of recommendations. The experiments demonstrate that the precision, recall rate, F1 score and mean average precision (mAP) of the proposed method are 0.097, 0.26, 0.103, and 0.085 on the Gowalla dataset when the recommendation list has a length of 10, respectively. On the Yelp dataset, the precision is 0.093, the recall rate is 0.26, F1 is 0.099, and MAP is 0.089. Hence, the proposed method can effectively enhance the performance of the POI recommendation system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
