Accurate forecasting of cellular network traffic is essential for network planning, resource allocation, and quality-of-service assurance in modern mobile communication systems. Real-world traffic often exhibits bursty endogenous dynamics and disturbances triggered by external urban events, which makes reliable prediction highly challenging.

The paper introduces SCRR-Net, a scene-conditioned spatial relation routing framework designed to forecast urban cellular activity by jointly modeling heterogeneous spatiotemporal signals such as SMS usage, mobile network traffic, and call activity. SCRR-Net integrates a context encoder, a spatial graph expert routing module, a temporal Transformer encoder, and a task knowledge routing module, allowing urban contextual information to control spatial dependency selection and cross-task knowledge transfer. Experiments on Milano and Trento datasets show that SCRR-Net consistently outperforms competing methods across all three forecasting tasks while offering interpretable routing behaviors.

The paper introduces TransMod, a unified framework for forecasting urban mobility demand across multiple transportation modes. It creates a shared zone-level spatial representation to align systems with different spatial granularities, reducing structural mismatch and distributional shift. TransMod then learns transferable spatio-temporal patterns from data-rich source modes and adapts them to data-scarce target modes, improving forecasting performance when target data is limited.

The paper introduces a goal‑oriented probabilistic forecasting framework for dynamic physical resource block (PRB) allocation in 5G networks. By training DeepAR and Temporal Fusion Transformer models with the Pinball Loss function and selecting an optimal allocation quantile based on an operator’s cost matrix, the approach aligns forecasting with operational objectives. Experiments on real beam‑level 5G traffic data show reduced operational cost compared to MSE‑trained baselines while preserving calibrated uncertainty estimates.

The paper introduces the Spatio-temporal Long-term Partial sensing Forecast model (SLPF) for predicting long-term traffic when sensors are only available at some locations. It tackles challenges such as unknown data distribution at unsensed sites, complex spatio-temporal correlations, and noise by employing a rank-based embedding, a spatial transfer matrix, and a multi-step training process. Experiments on real-world datasets show that SLPF outperforms existing methods.
