Opinion mining and sentiment analysis are valuable to extract the useful subjective information out of text documents. Predicting the customer’s opinion on amazon products has several benefits like reducing customer churn, agent monitoring, handling multiple customers, tracking overall customer satisfaction, quick escalations, and upselling opportunities. However, performing sentiment analysis is a challenging task for the researchers in order to find the users sentiments from the large datasets, because of its unstructured nature, slangs, misspells and abbreviations. To address this problem, a new proposed system is developed in this research study. Here, the proposed system comprises of four major phases; data collection, pre-processing, key word extraction, and classification. Initially, the input data were collected from the dataset: amazon customer review. After collecting the data, preprocessing was carried-out for enhancing the quality of collected data. The pre-processing phase comprises of three systems; lemmatization, review spam detection, and removal of stop-words and URLs. Then, an effective topic modelling approach Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) along with modified Possibilistic Fuzzy C-Means (PFCM) was applied to extract the keywords and also helps in identifying the concerned topics. The extracted keywords were classified into three forms (positive, negative and neutral) by applying an effective machine learning classifier: Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). The experimental outcome showed that the proposed system enhanced the accuracy in sentiment analysis up to 6-20% related to the existing systems.

AbstractWireless cellular traffic prediction is a critical issue for researchers and practitioners in the 5G/B5G field. However, it is very challenging since the wireless cellular traffic usually shows high nonlinearities and complex patterns. Most existing wireless cellular traffic prediction methods lack the abilities of modeling the dynamic spatial–temporal correlations of wireless cellular traffic data, thus cannot yield satisfactory prediction results. In order to improve the accuracy of 5G/B5G cellular network traffic prediction, an attention-based multi-component spatiotemporal cross-domain neural network model (att-MCSTCNet) is proposed, which uses Conv-LSTM or Conv-GRU for neighbor data, daily cycle data, and weekly cycle data modeling, and then assigns different weights to the three kinds of feature data through the attention layer, improves their feature extraction ability, and suppresses the feature information that interferes with the prediction time. Finally, the model is combined with timestamp feature embedding, multiple cross-domain data fusion, and jointly with other models to assist the model in traffic prediction. Experimental results show that compared with the existing models, the prediction performance of the proposed model is better. Among them, the RMSE performance of the att-MCSTCNet (Conv-LSTM) model on Sms, Call, and Internet datasets is improved by 13.70 ~ 54.96%, 10.50 ~ 28.15%, and 35.85 ~ 100.23%, respectively, compared with other existing models. The RMSE performance of the att-MCSTCNet (Conv-GRU) model on Sms, Call, and Internet datasets is about 14.56 ~ 55.82%, 12.24 ~ 29.89%, and 38.79 ~ 103.17% higher than other existing models, respectively.

Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) is a cellular network that is popular and has been growing in recent years. It was developed to solve fragmentation issues of the first cellular system, and it addresses digital modulation methods, level of the network structure, and services. It is fundamental for organizations to become learning organizations to keep up with the technology changes for network services to be at a competitive level. A simulation analysisusing the NetSim tool in this paper is presented for comparing different cellular network codecsfor GSM network performance. Theseparameters such as throughput, delay, and jitter are analyzed for the quality of service provided by each network codec. Unicast application for the cellular network is modeled for different network scenarios. Depending on the evaluation and simulation, it was discovered that G.711, GSM_FR, and GSM-EFR performed better than the other codecs, and they are considered to be the best codecs for cellular networks.These codecs will be of best use to better the performance of the network in the near future.

Customer churn is one of the most challenging problems for telecommunication companies. In fact, this is because customers are considered as the real asset for the companies. Therefore, more companies are increasing their investments in developing practical solutions that aim at predicting customer churn before it happens. Identifying which customer is about to churn will significantly help the companies in providing solutions to keep their customers and optimize their marketing campaigns. In this work, an intelligent hybrid model based on Particle Swarm Optimization and Feedforward neural network is proposed for churn prediction. PSO is used to tune the weights of the input features and optimize the structure of the neural network simultaneously to increase the prediction power. In addition, the proposed model handles the imbalanced class distribution of the data using an advanced oversampling technique. Evaluation results show that the proposed model can significantly improve the coverage rate of churn customers in comparison with other state-of-the-art classifiers. Moreover, the model has high interpretability, where the assigned feature weights can give an indicator about the importance of their corresponding features in the classification process.
