  • Publication number: 20230180115
    Abstract: A method performed by a first network node for a telecommunications network is provided. The method includes receiving a request for a network service. The method further includes dynamically mapping the request for the network service to an internal network slice instance based on unsupervised learning of historical data.

  • Publication number: 20230058223
    Abstract: A method for enabling a machine learning model to be aggregated from local machine learning models comprised in at least two local nodes in a wireless communications network is provided. The method comprises receiving, from each of the at least two local nodes, a parametrized function of a local machine learning model, a generator function of a local generative model, and a discriminator function of a local discriminative model, wherein the generator function and the discriminator function are trained on the same data as the parametrized function.

  • Publication number: 20220076066
    Abstract: A method generates synthetic data by a data collection system where the synthetic data meets a first threshold for accuracy and a second threshold for protecting sensitive data from recovery from the synthetic data. The method includes collecting data including sensitive data and non-sensitive data, executing a first machine learning model to generate the synthetic data from the collected data where the synthetic data meets the first threshold, executing a second machine learning model to update the synthetic data to meet the second threshold, checking whether the updated synthetic data meets the first threshold, releasing the updated synthetic data where the first threshold is met, and re-executing the first machine learning model and second machine learning model to update the synthetic data where the first threshold is not met during the checking.

  • Patent number: 11265790
    Abstract: A method performed by a serving network node for handover of a communication device to a target network node is provided. The method includes determining, based on content of an Information Centric Networking, ICN, request, a need for handover, and initiating, in response to the determining, a handover of the communication device to the target network node. A method performed by a network entity is also provided. A network node, network entity, computer programs and computer program products are also provided.

  • Patent number: 11012539
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to network nodes and methods performed at the network nodes for accessing data acquired in a communication system. In an aspect of the present disclosure, a method performed at a network node is provided to access data acquired in a communication system. The method includes acquiring data from which at least one information set is to be derived, determining that said at least one information set cannot be derived from the acquired data, and submitting a request for assistance to derive said at least one information set from the acquired data. The method further includes receiving, in response to the submitted request, information enabling deriving of said at least one information set.
