Abstract: Systems and methods for predicting network events are provided. A process, according to one implementation, includes the step of receiving a time-series dataset having a sequence of datapoints each including a set of Performance Monitoring (PM) parameters of a network. The process also includes the step of applying a subset of the sequence of datapoints to a Machine Learning (ML) model having a classification function and an encoding/decoding function. In addition, the process includes the step of allowing the ML model to leverage temporal-based correlations among the datapoints of the subset to predict an event associated with the network.
