Predicting Drive Test Results in Mobile Networks Using Optimization Techniques

Mobile network operators constantly optimize their networks to ensure superior service quality and coverage. This optimization is crucial for maintaining an optimal user experience and requires extensive data collection and analysis. One of the primary methods for gathering this data is through drive tests, where technical teams use specialized equipment to collect signal information across various regions. However, drive tests are both costly and time-consuming, and they face challenges such as traffic conditions, environmental factors, and limited access to certain areas. These constraints make it difficult to replicate drive tests under similar conditions. In this study, we propose a method that enables operators to predict received signal strength at specific locations using data from other drive test points. By reducing the need for widespread drive tests, this approach allows operators to save time and resources while still obtaining the necessary data to optimize their networks and mitigate the challenges associated with traditional drive tests.

Leveraging Machine Learning and Deep Learning Techniques for Improved Pathological Staging of Prostate Cancer

Prostate cancer (Pca) continues to be a leading cause of cancer-related mortality in men, and the limitations in precision of traditional diagnostic methods such as the Digital Rectal Exam (DRE), Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) testing, and biopsies underscore the critical importance of accurate staging detection in enhancing treatment outcomes and improving patient prognosis. This study leverages machine learning and deep learning approaches, along with feature selection and extraction methods, to enhance PCa pathological staging predictions using RNA sequencing data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Gene expression profiles from 486 tumors were analyzed using advanced algorithms, including Random Forest (RF), Logistic Regression (LR), Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGB), and Support Vector Machine (SVM). The performance of the study is measured with respect to the F1-score, as well as precision and recall, all of which are calculated as weighted averages. The results reveal that the highest test F1-score, approximately 83%, was achieved by the Random Forest algorithm, followed by Logistic Regression at 80%, while both Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGB) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) scored around 79%. Furthermore, deep learning models with data augmentation achieved an accuracy of 71. 23%, while PCA-based dimensionality reduction reached an accuracy of 69.86%. This research highlights the potential of AI-driven approaches in clinical oncology, paving the way for more reliable diagnostic tools that can ultimately improve patient outcomes.

Machine Learning-Driven Open-Source Framework for Assessing QoE in Multimedia Networks

The Internet is integral to modern life, influencing communication, business, and lifestyles globally. As dependence on Internet services grows, the demand for high-quality service delivery increases. Service providers must maintain high standards of quality of service and quality of experience (QoE) to ensure user satisfaction. QoE, which reflects user satisfaction with service quality, is a key metric for multimedia services, yet it is challenging to measure due to its subjective nature and the complexities of real-time feedback. This paper introduces a machine learning-based framework for objectively assessing QoE in multimedia networks. The open-source framework complies with the ITU-T P.1203 standard. It automates data collection and user satisfaction prediction using key network parameters such as delay, jitter, packet loss, bitrate, and throughput. Using a dataset of over 20,000 records from various network conditions, the Random Forest model predicts the mean opinion score with 95.8% accuracy. Our framework addresses the limitations of existing QoE models by integrating real-time data collection, machine learning predictions, and adherence to international standards. This approach enhances QoE evaluation accuracy and allows dynamic network resource management, optimizing performance and cost-efficiency. Its open-source nature encourages adaptation and extension for various multimedia services. The findings significantly affect the telecommunications industry in managing and optimizing multimedia services. The network centric QoE prediction of the framework offers a scalable solution to improve user satisfaction without the need for content-specific data. Future enhancements could include advanced machine learning models and broader applicability to digital services. This research contributes a practical, standardized tool for QoE assessment across diverse networks and platforms.

Enhancing Quality of Experience in Telecommunication Networks: A Review of Frameworks and Machine Learning Algorithms

The Internet service provider industry is currently experiencing intense competition as companies strive to provide top-notch services to their customers. Providers are introducing cutting-edge technologies to enhance service quality, understanding that their survival depends on the level of service they offer. However, evaluating service quality is a complex task. A crucial aspect of this evaluation lies in understanding user experience, which significantly impacts the success and reputation of a service or product. Ensuring a seamless and positive user experience is essential for attracting and retaining customers. To date, much effort has been devoted to developing tools for measuring Quality of Experience (QoE), which incorporate both subjective and objective criteria. These tools, available in closed and open-source formats, are accessible to organizations and contribute to improving user experience quality. This review article delves into recent research and initiatives aimed at creating frameworks for assessing user QoE. It also explores the integration of machine learning algorithms to enhance these tools for future advancements. Additionally, the article examines current challenges and envisions future directions in the development of these measurement tools.

On the Feasibility of Wireless Interconnects for High-throughput Data Centers

Data Centers (DCs) are required to be scalable to large data sets so as to accommodate ever increasing demands of resource-limited embedded and mobile devices. Thanks to the availability of recent high data rate millimeter-wave frequency spectrum such as 60GHz and due to the favorable attributes of this technology, wireless DC (WDC) exhibits the potentials of being a promising solution especially for small to medium scale DCs. This paper investigates the problem of throughput scalability of WDCs using the established theory of the asymptotic throughput of wireless multi-hop networks that are primarily proposed for homogeneous traffic conditions. The rate-heterogeneous traffic distribution of a data center however, requires the asymptotic heterogeneous throughput knowledge of a wireless network in order to study the performance and feasibility of WDCs for practical purposes. To answer these questions this paper presents a lower bound for the throughput scalability of a multi-hop rate-heterogeneous network when traffic generation rates of all nodes are similar, except one node. We demonstrate that the throughput scalability of conventional multi-hopping and the spatial reuse of the above bi-rate network is inefficient and henceforth develop a speculative 2-partitioning scheme that improves the network throughput scaling potentials. A better lower bound of the throughput is then obtained. Finally, we obtain the throughput scaling of an i.i.d. rate-heterogeneous network and obtain its lower bound. Again we propose a speculative 2-partitioning scheme to achieve a network with higher throughput in terms of improved lower bound. All of the obtained results have been verified using simulation experiments.
