Status

Difficulty



Description 

This project aims to develop AI/ML models for NFV-usecases. Any two of the following three problems can be considered. 

  1. VNF/CNF resource/performance/failure prediction

  2. NFV log analysis with NLP
  3. Synthetic monitoring and logging data generation using GANs
