Parameter Efficient Hybrid Transformer (PEHT) for Network Traffic Prediction via Dynamic Urban Congestion Integration

Accurate network traffic prediction is a critical element for efficient resource allocation in dynamic urban cellular networks. However, prediction remains challenging because network demand is influenced by complex mobility patterns, congestion dynamics, and heterogeneous user behavior. This paper introduces the Parameter-Efficient Hybrid Transformer (PEHT), a network traffic prediction framework that integrates urban mobility and congestion information into a Transformer-based architecture. PEHT separates primary network communication features from secondary urban mobility features and incorporates Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) into the Transformer encoder to reduce the number of trainable parameters while maintaining high predictive accuracy. A multimodal fusion strategy then injects external mobility and congestion features into the decoder to improve traffic forecasting. Experiments on the Telecom Italia Milan dataset and multiple synthetic congestion scenarios show that PEHT outperforms state-of-the-art baselines in terms of RMSE, MAE, and $R^2$. The implementation is available in the GitHub repository.

RL-MoE: An Image-Based Privacy Preserving Approach In Intelligent Transportation System

The proliferation of AI-powered cameras in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) creates a severe conflict between the need for rich visual data and the right to privacy. Existing privacy-preserving methods, such as blurring or encryption, are often insufficient due to creating an undesirable trade-off where either privacy is compromised against advanced reconstruction attacks or data utility is critically degraded. To resolve this challenge, we propose RL-MoE, a novel framework that transforms sensitive visual data into privacy-preserving textual descriptions, eliminating the need for direct image transmission. RL-MoE uniquely combines a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture for nuanced, multi-aspect scene decomposition with a Reinforcement Learning (RL) agent that optimizes the generated text for a dual objective of semantic accuracy and privacy preservation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that RL-MoE provides superior privacy protection, reducing the success rate of replay attacks to just 9.4\% on the CFP-FP dataset, while simultaneously generating richer textual content than baseline methods. Our work provides a practical and scalable solution for building trustworthy AI systems in privacy-sensitive domains, paving the way for more secure smart city and autonomous vehicle networks.
