Features selection and pattern mining for KQI prediction and cause analysis

摘要

The disclosure relates to technology for processing data sets to generate data rules for the data sets in a communications network. A first set of data including key quality indicators (KQIs) indicative of a quality of service and a second set of data including key performance indicators (KPIs) indicative of a performance level are received. The first data set and the second data set are categorized using a first value into a plurality of KQI groups and a second value into a plurality of KPI groups, respectively. Each of the KQI and KPI groups are identified with a label. Each of the KQI and KPI groups identified with a same label are processed by application of association rule learning to generate the data rules. The data rules model a relationship between the KQIs and the KPIs by calculating association frequencies.
