Abstract [en]
Context: The context of this thesis to predict user mobility using deep learning algorithms which can increase the quality of service for the users and reduce the cost of paging for telecom carriers.
Objectives: This study first investigates to find the suitable deep learning algorithms that can be used to predict user mobility and then an experiment is performed with the chosen algorithms as a global model and individual model then evaluate the performance of algorithms.
Methods: Firstly, a Literature review is used to find suitable deep learning algorithms and then based on finding an experiment is performed to evaluate the chosen deep learning algorithms.
Results: Results from the literature review show that the RNN, LSTM, and variants of the LSTM are the suitable deep learning algorithms. The models are evaluated with metrics accuracy. The results from the experiment showed that the individual model gives better performance in predicting user mobility when compared to the global model.
Conclusions: From the results obtained from the experiment, it can be concluded that the individual model is the technique of choice in predicting user mobility.
