Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

This disclosure relates to the field of data analysis, and in particular, to an indicator determining method and a related device.


BACKGROUND

A network key performance indicator (KPI) is an indicator used to measure network performance, including a speed rate, a bandwidth, a latency, a packet loss rate, a throughput rate, and the like. A key quality indicator (KQI) is a service quality parameter focusing on user experiences for different services.


In a common system, a user experience result of a service run on an application is usually represented by the KQI. A reason why user experience results of the service are different may be a defect of a design of the application, or may be freezing, instability, and the like of a network connected to the service. Therefore, a network status of the network connected to the service also becomes one of the parameters that evaluate user experience. In an existing training model, a KQI is predicted by analyzing network KPI data. The training model can be generated by collecting a large amount of KPI data, and a larger data volume generally indicates a more accurate result of the training model.


However, in an existing solution in which the network KPI is associated to a service KQI by using a machine learning method, the service KQI is considered merely from a perspective of the network KPI, and precision of the KQI obtained by predicting by the training model is limited.


SUMMARY

Embodiments of this disclosure provides an indicator determining method and a related device, to predict KQI results of different services by using a network KPI parameter.


According to an embodiment of this disclosure, an indicator determining method is provided. The method includes:


obtaining to-be-predicted data of a service, where the to-be-predicted data includes a KPI parameter of a network in which the service is located and a type identifier of the service, and the KPI parameter of the network in which the service is located is KPI data of the network to which the service is connected.


The KPI data of the network includes at least one of the following parameters: a time of the network, signal strength, a packet loss rate, a channel utilization rate, a media access control MAC address of a network device, a terminal vendor, a MAC address of a terminal, a latency, a jitter, a negotiated sending rate, a sending rate, a receiving rate, and a negotiated receiving rate.


The type identifier of the service may indicate a type of the service, such as a video service, a voice service, a multimedia service, or the like, and the video service, the voice service and the multimedia service have different identifiers.


Subsequently, a target predictive model is determined, based on the type identifier of the service, in a predictive model set. Because different service types correspond to different predictive models, the predictive model set includes at least one predictive model, and each predictive model corresponds to one service type.


The KPI in the to-be-predicted data is substituted in the target predictive model, to obtain a KQI result of the service.


An embodiment of this disclosure has the following advantages: An analysis apparatus obtains the to-be-predicted data of the service, where the to-be-predicted data includes the service type identifier of the service, and the service type identifier may indicate a target service type of the service. Then the analysis apparatus determines the target predictive model based on the target service type of the service, and determines the key quality indicator KQI of the service by using the target predictive model. In this embodiment of this disclosure, when the KQI of the service is predicted by using the network KPI parameter, it is considered that services of different service types have different predictive models, so that the KQI result of the service predicted by using the network KPI parameter is more accurate.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

This disclosure provides an indicator determining method, to predict a service KQI based on a network KPI. The service KQI is mainly referred to as user experience of a service, and better user experience corresponds to a higher service KQI value. There are many factors affecting user experience. Internal factors of a user are uncontrollable factors, and those are not explored in this disclosure. External factors affecting user experience of the service mainly includes performance of user equipment. In addition, performance of a network used by the user is also an important factor. In this disclosure, a relationship between a network KPI parameter and a service KQI is established in a manner of model training. In this disclosure, indicator determining and model training are performed by an analysis apparatus.


In the embodiments of this disclosure, the analysis apparatus is an apparatus capable of data analysis, and the analysis apparatus may be a server or a terminal. There are several cases of a composition structure of the analysis apparatus below.


A: Referring to FIG. 1a, the analysis apparatus includes a processor and a memory, the processor is configured to generate a predictive model after analyzing and processing KPI data inputted by another device, and the memory is configured to store the predictive model.


B: Referring to FIG. 1b, the analysis apparatus includes a network adapter, a processor and a memory, the network adapter is configured to collect KPI data from a network side, the processor is configured to process the KPI data collected by the network adapter and generate a predictive model, and the memory is configured to store the predictive model.


C: Referring to FIG. 1c, a wireless access point (AP) is configured to connect a wireless network, and send network KPI data to the analysis apparatus, so that the analysis apparatus can perform an analyzing and processing block that is similar to the block shown in FIG. 1b.


D: Referring to FIG. 1d, the analysis apparatus includes a dedicated chip, a processor and a memory, the processor is configured to analyze and process inputted data to generate a predictive model, the dedicated chip is configured to accelerate the data processing procedure, where a time to generate the predictive model and a time to generate a predicted result by using the predictive model can be shortened by using the dedicated chip, and the memory is configured to store the predictive model. In this embodiment, the analysis apparatus may further include a network adapter. In this case, the data inputted into the processor can be obtained by the analysis apparatus. If the analysis apparatus does not include the network adapter, the data inputted into the processor is sent to the analysis apparatus after the data is obtained by another device.


In the analysis apparatuses shown in FIG. 1a to FIG. 1d, most of the memories are disks. In addition to the disks, the memory may alternatively be a memory of the analysis apparatus, and this is not limited herein.


E: Referring to FIG. 1e, the analysis apparatus and a storage device are different devices. The analysis apparatus includes a processor, and the processor stores, after processing inputted data and generating a predictive model, the predictive model in the storage device. In this case, the predictive model is stored in an independent storage device, and can be used by another device other than the analysis apparatus.


In this disclosure, when the analysis apparatus is analyzing and processing the network KPI data to predict the service KQI, a type of the service is further considered. There are different target predictive models for different types of services. Referring to FIG. 2a, an indicator determining method of this disclosure is described below.



201. Obtain to-be-predicted data of a service.


The to-be-predicted data of the service includes a key performance indicator KPI of a network to which the service is connected and a type identifier of the service, and the type identifier of the service may indicate a type of the service.


The KPI of the network includes at least one of the following parameters: a time, signal strength, a packet loss rate, a channel utilization rate, a media access control (MAC) address of a network device, a terminal vendor, a MAC address of a terminal, a latency, a jitter, a negotiated sending rate, a sending rate, a receiving rate and a negotiated receiving rate.


The type identifier of the service may be a code (for example, 001, 011, and the like) or a name of the service (for example, a video, a web page, a voice, and the like), and this is not specifically limited herein.



202. Determine, based on the type identifier, a target predictive model in a predictive model set.


As shown in FIG. 3, a network KPI includes a moment, a latency, a negotiated rate, a received signal strength indicator (RSSI), and a channel utilization rate. User experience of different service (for example, a web service and a call service) under a same network KPI is different. For example, in FIG. 3, for KPI data corresponding to a moment 1, web experience of a user is good, but calling experience of the user is poor. Therefore, when performing data analysis, the analysis apparatus determines different target predictive models for different types of services. There is a one-to-one correspondence between the predictive model and the service type. Because there are a plurality of types of services, the predictive models formed by the analysis apparatus are a set, and the analysis apparatus should determine, based on the type identifier of the service, the target predictive model in the trained predictive model set.


In this embodiment, the type of the service may be a multimedia service, a voice service, and a video service. The multimedia service may further be web page browsing, gaming, live broadcast, and the like, the voice service may be a voice call, and the video service may be an H.265 video, an MP4 video and a moving picture experts group (MPEG) video. The type of the service may further have more other cases, and this is not specifically limited herein.


A predictive model training process is a process of analyzing and calculating, by the analysis apparatus, sample data after obtaining the sample data. Referring to FIG. 2b, the process is described below.


A: Obtain a sample data set of the service, and determine a service KQI corresponding to each piece of sample data in the sample data set.


The sample data set includes at least one network KPI parameter. For example, in FIG. 3, the latency is 50 ms, the negotiated rate is 0, the RSSI is −66 dbm, and the channel utilization rate is 40. The series of network parameters form one network KPI in this embodiment of this disclosure.


Different network KPIs have different user experience, and have different KQI values. Therefore, each network KPI corresponds to a unique KQI, and the unique correspondence thereof includes the following two cases:


1. Each network KPI is in a one-to-one correspondence with each service KQI result. For example, a service KQI result generated by a network KPI is good, and a service KQI result generated by another network KPI is poor.


2. Different network KPIs correspond to a same KQI result. For example, a service KQI result generated by a network KPI is good, and a service KQI result generated by another network KPI is also good.


In a machine learning method in this embodiment, sample data collection for the predictive model should consider the following:


1. The collected sample data set includes fourth sample data.


In this embodiment, there are relatively few summaries about a network KPI corresponding to a low KQI, causing a large quantity of inaccurate prediction cases. Therefore, when data is collected, a case in which user experience is relatively poor should be considered, to ensure integrity and reliability of an established predictive model. For example, when the data is collected, many common fault models, for example, a series of network statuses such as a low signal, high interference, a large background flow, and the like, can be injected. Therefore, collection of the fourth sample data should be considered. A fourth KQI corresponding to the fourth sample data is less than a preset KQI threshold (that is, a critical value of a low KQI result that is determined by the analysis apparatus). The fourth sample data includes one or more pieces of KPI data, and a larger data volume indicates a more accurate predictive model.


2. The collected sample data set includes first sample data, second sample data, and third sample data.


In a process of model training, in addition to the injection of many fault models in the solution, that is, collection of low KQI data, proportionality of data collection should be further considered. Therefore, in data collection, percentages of each data should be almost the same. Therefore, the obtained sample data includes the first sample data, the second sample data and the third sample data. A first KQI corresponding to the first sample data is less than a second KQI corresponding to the second sample data, and the second KQI corresponding to the second sample data is less than a third KQI corresponding to the third sample data. The third KQI may be a low KQI. Referring to FIG. 4, for example, in a process of generating a predictive model of a web browsing service, equal amounts of KPI data with good, medium and poor KQI results are separately obtained, to ensure proportionality of good, medium, and poor data, so that a predictable range of the predictive model is more comprehensive, and the result is more accurate.


B: Generate a first training record based on the sample data set of the service and a service KQI set.


The sample data set of the service and the KQI corresponding to each piece of sample data of the service are recorded to generate the first training record.


C: Generate the target predictive model based on the first training record.


In this embodiment, the target predictive model is a model obtained by training, by the analysis apparatus after obtaining the sample data of the service, the sample data. The analysis apparatus establishes, based on the first training record, an association relationship between a KPI parameter and a user experience KQI parameter, that is, the analysis apparatus determines an algorithm formula for the target predictive model.


D: Add the target predictive model to the predictive model set.



203. Determine, based on the target predictive model and the KPI in the to-be-predicted data, a KQI of the service.


The analysis apparatus performs service KQI prediction based on the determined target predictive model.


In this embodiment, the analysis apparatus generates a predictive model by analyzing network KPI data and service KQI data in a machine learning manner, and predicts the service KQI based on the network KPI data by using the predictive model.


In this embodiment, when the KQI of the service is predicted by using the network KPI parameter, it is considered that services of different service types have different predictive models, so that the KQI result of the service predicted by using the network KPI parameter is more accurate.


In the embodiments, the target predictive model is integration of three models. A result predicted by each of the three models has a particular weight coefficient in a predicted result value of the target predictive model, the weight coefficients are respectively denoted as X, Y and Z. A training process of the target predictive model is also a determining process for the weight coefficients X, Y and Z. In addition, algorithms of the foregoing three models are determined in the model training process. Referring to FIG. 5, the algorithms are described below.



501: Obtain a sample data set of a service, and determine a service KQI corresponding to each piece of sample data in the sample data set.



502: Generate a first training record based on the sample data set of the service and the service KQI corresponding to each piece of sample data in the sample data set.


In this embodiment, embodiment block 501 and block 502 are similar to embodiment block A and block B in block 202, and they are not specifically described herein again.



503. Separately determine, based on the first training record, weight coefficients of a support vector machine SVM model, a random forest model, and a logistic regression model in a target predictive model.


In this embodiment, in the training process of the target predictive model, the weight coefficients of the support vector machine SVM model, the random forest model, and the logistic regression model in the target predictive model should be determined, and the first training record should be separately substituted into the three types of models to obtain the algorithm formulas of the three types of models.


A fundamental principle of a support vector machine (SVM) model is: Given a sample set including a positive example and a negative example, an objective of the SVM is to find a hyperplane to segment a sample based on the positive example and the negative example. An algorithm formula of the support vector machine model is: g(x)=wTx+b. The first training record is substituted into the SVM algorithm formula to obtain values of w and b through training. The values are made into constants, and the SVM algorithm formula becomes a function formula between a dependent variable g(x) and an independent variable x, x is used to indicate the KPI, and g(x) is used to indicate the KQI. Therefore, the SVM can predict, by using the network KPI, a KQI of an application.


A principle of the random forest model is: A random forest algorithm is based on a decision tree, a main idea thereof is to classify sample data with KQI predicted results good, medium and poor into three types, find a characteristic property of each type of data, and establish the decision tree. A process of performing KQI prediction by using the decision tree includes: testing, starting from a root node, a corresponding characteristic property in to-be-predicted KPI data, selecting an output branch based on a value of the characteristic property until reaching a leaf node, and using a type in which the leaf node is stored as a decision result, that is, a KQI result value.


A fundamental principle of logistic regression is: Positive samples and negative samples that have a same quantity are collected, and these samples are drawn. A line distinguishes the two types of samples, and the fitted curve is a regression curve. The model training process is a process of finding the line by using a large amount of data and fitting an expression of the line. New to-be-predicted data is classified by using the line. In this disclosure, the KPI data is classified into three types by using a method of simulating the regression curve, and corresponding KQI results are respectively good, medium, and poor. An algorithm formula of logistic regression is:







y
=

1

1
+

e

-
z





,




where z=w1*x1+w2*x2+w3*x3+ . . . +wn*xn, w is an undetermined parameter, x is a feature value of each dimension (for example, for a three-dimensional plane, the data x has three feature values) of the KPI data, and y is the obtained KQI result. Subsequently, these output results are compared with actual result values of the sample, and a parameter value of the fitted line (namely, the regression curve) is adjusted based on a comparison result, to optimize the parameter w of the fitted line and make the logistic regression model more accurate.


When the algorithm formulas of the three types of models are determined, the weight coefficients of the three types of models further should be determined.



504: Generate the target predictive model based on the weight coefficients of the support vector machine SVM model, the random forest model, and the logistic regression model in the target predictive model.


In this disclosure, an algorithm formula of the target predictive model after combination is: a result value Q predicted by the target predictive model=X*a result value predicted by the SVM model+Y*a result value predicted by the random forest model+Z*a result value predicted by the logistic regression model.


The model training process is described below with reference to specific application scenarios.


1. An analysis apparatus generates a predictive model for a video service.


The analysis apparatus first determines a network KPI parameter, and obtains a KQI result of the KPI parameter for the video service. A large quantity of KPI parameters and KQI results are obtained by repetitively performing this block. Therefore, an association relationship between the KPI parameter and the KQI result is found, and an algorithm formula of the predictive model is determined. The algorithm formula of the predictive model is: the result value Q predicted by the target predictive model=X*the result value predicted by the SVM model+Y*the result value predicted by the random forest model+Z*the result value predicted by the logistic regression model. By substituting a large amount of different KPI data and corresponding KQI predicted result values of the KPI data into the algorithm formula, it is obtained that parameters X=x1, Y=y1, and Z=z1, and X, Y and Z are made into fixed values, so that in a subsequent model prediction process, the KQI result value Q can be obtained by substituting the KPI data.


A possible case is that, for the video service, the percentage x1 of the predicted result of the SVM model in the total predicted result value is greater than the percentage y1 of the predicted result of the random forest model in the total predicted result value, and y1 is greater than the percentage z1 of the predicted result of the logistic regression model in the total predicted result value. That is, for the video service, the weight coefficient of the SVM model prediction result in the target predictive model is the greatest.


2. The analysis apparatus generates a predictive model for a voice service.


The analysis apparatus first determines a network KPI parameter, and obtains a KQI result of the KPI parameter for the voice service. A large quantity of KPI parameters and KQI results are obtained by repetitively performing this block. Therefore, an association relationship between the KPI parameter and the KQI result is found, and an algorithm formula of the predictive model is determined. It is obtained that the parameters X=x2, Y=y2, and Z=z2. A determining process of the parameters in the algorithm formula of the predictive model is similar to that for the video service, and details are not described herein again.


A possible case is that, for the voice service, the percentage y2 of the predicted result of the random forest model in the total predicted result value is greater than the percentage x2 of the predicted result of the SVM model in the total predicted result value, and x2 is greater than the percentage z2 of the predicted result of the logistic regression model in the total predicted result value. That is, for the voice service, the weight coefficient of the random forest model prediction result in the target predictive model is the greatest.


3. The analysis apparatus generates a predictive model for a multimedia service.


The analysis apparatus first determines a network KPI parameter, and obtains a KQI result of the KPI parameter for the voice service. A large quantity of KPI parameters and KQI results are obtained by repetitively performing this block. Therefore, an association relationship between the KPI parameter and the KQI result is found, and an algorithm formula of the predictive model is determined. It is obtained that the parameters X=x3, Y=y3, and Z=z3. A determining process of the parameters in the algorithm formula of the predictive model is similar to that for the video service, and details are not described herein again.


A possible case is that, for the multimedia service, the percentage z3 of the predicted result of the logistic regression model in the total predicted result value is greater than the percentage y3 of the predicted result of the random forest model in the total predicted result value, and y3 is greater than the percentage x3 of the predicted result of the SVM model in the total predicted result value. That is, for the multimedia service, the weight coefficient of the logistic regression model prediction result in the target predictive model is the greatest.



505. Add the target predictive model to a predictive model set.



506. Obtain to-be-predicted data of the service.



507. Determine, based on a type identifier, the target predictive model in the predictive model set.



508. Determine, based on the target predictive model and a KPI in the to-be-predicted data, a key quality indicator KQI of the service.


In this embodiment, embodiment block 506 to block 508 are similar to embodiment block 201 to block 203 shown in FIG. 2a, and details are not specifically described herein again.


In this embodiment, in the training process of the target predictive model, besides the algorithm formulas of the SVM model, the random forest model, and the logistic regression model, the weight coefficients of the three types of models in the target predictive model further should be determined. A specific training process for the target predictive model is described in this embodiment, to increase feasibility of the solution.


In this embodiment, after the target predictive model is generated, a to-be-predicted KPI can be obtained, a predicted KQI result can be determined, and the to-be-predicted KPI and the predicted KQI result can be recorded. Subsequently, the KPI and the KQI result are used to update the target predictive model and adjust the parameter of the target predictive model. All subsequent KPI parameters and predicted KQI result values that are inputted into the target predictive model can be used to update the target predictive model, to make the predictive model more accurate through repetitive training. Referring to FIG. 6, FIG. 6 is described below.



601. Obtain a sample data set of a service, and determine a service KQI corresponding to each piece of sample data in the sample data set.



602. Generate a first training record based on the sample data set of the service and the service KQI corresponding to each piece of sample data in the sample data set.



603. Separately determine, based on the first training record, weight coefficients of a support vector machine SVM model, a random forest model, and a logistic regression model in a target predictive model.



604. Generate the target predictive model based on the weight coefficients of the support vector machine SVM model, the random forest model, and the logistic regression model in the target predictive model.



605. Add the target predictive model to a predictive model set.



606. Obtain to-be-predicted data of the service.



607. Determine, based on a type identifier, the target predictive model in the predictive model set.



608. Determine, based on the target predictive model and a KPI, a key quality indicator KQI of the service.



609. Generate a second training record of a KPI in the to-be-predicted data and a key quality indicator KQI corresponding to the KPI in the to-be-predicted data.


Because of insufficient sample data volume or another uncontrollable factor, a model obtained through training is not necessarily completely accurate, and there is a high probability that a KQI result obtained by substituting KPI data into the predictive model has a deviation from a theoretical KQI result of the predictive model. Using coin flipping as an example, after flipping a coin for a plurality of times, a probability of heading up is 40 percent through calculation. However, in a subsequent process of flipping the coin repeatedly, it is found that the probability of heading up is not necessarily 40 percent. Therefore, a subsequent actual experiment result can be combined with the result of the predictive model, to adjust the predictive model. In this disclosure, an obtained theoretical KQI result of the predictive model may be good, but an actual KQI result of the to-be-predicted data is medium. Therefore, an analysis apparatus should record KPI data in the to-be-predicted data and a KQI result generated after substituting the KPI data into the predictive model, generate the second training record, place the training record into a storage space, and subsequently adjust the parameter based on an actual KQI result.



610. Update the target predictive model based on the second training record.


When the recorded second training record reaches a specific amount of data, the second training record is reused as the sample data, and is substituted into an existing target predictive model, to adjust an algorithm parameter of the target predictive model with reference to the actual KQI result of the to-be-predicted data, that is, a process of updating the target predictive model, so that the target predictive model is more accurate.


For example, in the process of updating the prediction model, a volume of sample data with KQI results poor is 50, and volumes of sample data with KQI results good and medium are both 200. However, the predictive model may need more low KQI values as the training record, and subsequently, when the predictive model is used, the predicted result is obtained by inputting the to-be-predicted data. For example, a data volume of to-be-predicted data is 10000, a data volume of low KQIs is 5000, and there are a relatively large quantity of low KQI values in the to-be-predicted data. Therefore, the analysis apparatus can retrain the predictive model by using the to-be-predicted data as the sample, adjust the parameters of the predictive model with reference to the KQI results corresponding to the to-be-predicted KPI in an actual case, and generate a new predictive model, that is, a process of optimizing the predictive model. In this case, model training can be performed by using the sample data, and the to-be-predicted 10000 pieces of data with reference to the previous 450 pieces of sample data.


In this embodiment, a process in which the to-be-predicted data is reversed as the sample data to update the target predictive model is described, to increase flexibility of solution implementation.
