NeuTM: A Neural Network-based Framework for Traffic Matrix Prediction in SDN
This paper presents NeuTM, a framework for network Traffic Matrix (TM)
prediction based on Long Short-Term Memory Recurrent Neural Networks (LSTM
RNNs). TM prediction is defined as the problem of estimating future network
traffic matrix from the previous and achieved network traffic data. It is
widely used in network planning, resource management and network security. Long
Short-Term Memory (LSTM) is a specific recurrent neural network (RNN)
architecture that is well-suited to learn from data and classify or predict
time series with time lags of unknown size. LSTMs have been shown to model
long-range dependencies more accurately than conventional RNNs. NeuTM is a LSTM
RNN-based framework for predicting TM in large networks. By validating our
framework on real-world data from GEEANT network, we show that our model
converges quickly and gives state of the art TM prediction performance.Comment: Submitted to NOMS18. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with

A Long Short-Term Memory Recurrent Neural Network Framework for Network Traffic Matrix Prediction
Network Traffic Matrix (TM) prediction is defined as the problem of
estimating future network traffic from the previous and achieved network
traffic data. It is widely used in network planning, resource management and
network security. Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) is a specific recurrent neural
network (RNN) architecture that is well-suited to learn from experience to
classify, process and predict time series with time lags of unknown size. LSTMs
have been shown to model temporal sequences and their long-range dependencies
more accurately than conventional RNNs. In this paper, we propose a LSTM RNN
framework for predicting short and long term Traffic Matrix (TM) in large
networks. By validating our framework on real-world data from GEANT network, we
show that our LSTM models converge quickly and give state of the art TM
prediction performance for relatively small sized models.Comment: Submitted for peer review. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

Scalable Deep Traffic Flow Neural Networks for Urban Traffic Congestion Prediction
Tracking congestion throughout the network road is a critical component of
Intelligent transportation network management systems. Understanding how the
traffic flows and short-term prediction of congestion occurrence due to
rush-hour or incidents can be beneficial to such systems to effectively manage
and direct the traffic to the most appropriate detours. Many of the current
traffic flow prediction systems are designed by utilizing a central processing
component where the prediction is carried out through aggregation of the
information gathered from all measuring stations. However, centralized systems
are not scalable and fail provide real-time feedback to the system whereas in a
decentralized scheme, each node is responsible to predict its own short-term
congestion based on the local current measurements in neighboring nodes.
We propose a decentralized deep learning-based method where each node
accurately predicts its own congestion state in real-time based on the
congestion state of the neighboring stations. Moreover, historical data from
the deployment site is not required, which makes the proposed method more
suitable for newly installed stations. In order to achieve higher performance,
we introduce a regularized Euclidean loss function that favors high congestion
samples over low congestion samples to avoid the impact of the unbalanced
training dataset. A novel dataset for this purpose is designed based on the
traffic data obtained from traffic control stations in northern California.
Extensive experiments conducted on the designed benchmark reflect a successful
congestion prediction
Traffic Prediction Based on Random Connectivity in Deep Learning with Long Short-Term Memory
Traffic prediction plays an important role in evaluating the performance of
telecommunication networks and attracts intense research interests. A
significant number of algorithms and models have been put forward to analyse
traffic data and make prediction. In the recent big data era, deep learning has
been exploited to mine the profound information hidden in the data. In
particular, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), one kind of Recurrent Neural Network
(RNN) schemes, has attracted a lot of attentions due to its capability of
processing the long-range dependency embedded in the sequential traffic data.
However, LSTM has considerable computational cost, which can not be tolerated
in tasks with stringent latency requirement. In this paper, we propose a deep
learning model based on LSTM, called Random Connectivity LSTM (RCLSTM).
Compared to the conventional LSTM, RCLSTM makes a notable breakthrough in the
formation of neural network, which is that the neurons are connected in a
stochastic manner rather than full connected. So, the RCLSTM, with certain
intrinsic sparsity, have many neural connections absent (distinguished from the
full connectivity) and which leads to the reduction of the parameters to be
trained and the computational cost. We apply the RCLSTM to predict traffic and
validate that the RCLSTM with even 35% neural connectivity still shows a
satisfactory performance. When we gradually add training samples, the
performance of RCLSTM becomes increasingly closer to the baseline LSTM.
Moreover, for the input traffic sequences of enough length, the RCLSTM exhibits
even superior prediction accuracy than the baseline LSTM.Comment: 6 pages, 9 figure
