Multimodal Spatiotemporal-Frequency Fusion with Peak Enhancement for Cellular Traffic Forecasting

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.

Lightweight and Interpretable Transformer via Mixed Graph Algorithm Unrolling for Traffic Forecast

arXiv:2505. 13102v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Unlike conventional "black-box" transformers with classical self-attention mechanism, we build a lightweight and interpretable transformer-like neural net by unrolling a mixed-graph-based optimization algorithm to forecast traffic with spatial and temporal dimensions.

Scene-Conditioned Relation Routing for urban cellular activity forecasting

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.

Goal-oriented probabilistic forecasting for dynamic PRB allocation in 5G networks

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.

Toward Equitable Low-Carbon Mobility: Fairness-Aware Demand Prediction for Expanding Bike-Sharing Systems

The paper introduces FairGIN, a fairness-aware graph neural network designed to predict demand for expanding bike‑sharing systems while addressing cold‑start challenges and equity concerns. It combines expansion‑simulated incremental training, attention‑based knowledge transfer, and income‑stratified regularization to improve predictive accuracy and reduce income‑based disparities. Experiments on NYC and Seattle show that FairGIN outperforms existing methods and supports more inclusive station placement without sacrificing overall efficiency.
