Abstract: Methods and systems for predicting network performance include receiving a number of sets of data points of a number of network elements. Each of the number of sets of data points includes performance counter values and a performance indicator of a respective network element of the number of network elements. A global model representing a global relationship pattern between the performance indicator and the performance counter values is determined based on the number of sets of data points of the number of network elements. For each network element, residual features are determined based on error measures between the global model and the set of data points including the performance indicator and the performance counter values of the network element. The number of network elements are clustered into a number of clusters based on the determined residual features of the number of network elements.
