Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Cellular network operation strongly relies in the operator's capacity to manage failures and optimize the networks for their efficient and proper functioning. For this, Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) models are deployed to detect and correct problems and inefficiencies in the networks. However, as network operation carries on, new technologies are continuously deployed which, alongside the changes in the networks' environment introduce new unexpected issues and variations in the metrics, reducing the performance of the models. Thus, the used models require being constantly updated, making necessary for operators to optimize their development process. Taking this into consideration, this work proposes a system for labeling clusters with issues based on graphs without prior information. Moreover, as the generated labels are quantitative, they can be used to identify the same issues across several datasets, allowing the application of transfer learning methods to carry knowledge from older datasets to newer ones. The system output has been evaluated using data from two different real-world cellular networks, assessing the capacity of the system to generate accurate and descriptive labels, as well as the labels applicability for transfer learning applications by identifying issues across different datasets.
