[0019] Embodiment one The method implemented in this embodiment can be implemented in a system, and can be implemented in a server or in a terminal, and the specific implementation is not limited. The method in this application will be introduced from the perspective of system implementation. Please refer to Figure 1 The method provided by the embodiment of the application comprises the following steps: S1. Collecting performance data of a plurality of communication channels in a communication network, the performance data comprising historical and real-time delay data, error rate data and alarm data; In this embodiment, the performance data is collected in a programmed manner by integrating the interface of a network management system or communicating with network element devices; wherein the performance data constitutes a multi-source data set, including real-time delay data collected from the network management system or the network element devices, historical delay data stored in the database, error rate data and alarm data. The delay data includes the latest round-trip delay or one-way delay measurement value collected in real time from the network management system or the network element devices, and the historical delay records of all collection periods in the past continuous time stored in the performance database. The error rate data is the index data reflecting the transmission error code situation of the channel. The alarm data is the event notification information about the performance degradation of the channel, device failure or protocol exception generated by the network management system or the device.

[0020] In this embodiment, the collected performance data is preprocessed, and the preprocessing includes: time stamp alignment and unit unification of the delay data from different data sources, and classification and deduplication of the alarm data according to the preset rule base.

[0021] S2. Inputting the collected performance data into a pre-trained intelligent delay evaluation model to output an evaluation result of each communication channel; the evaluation result comprising a delay prediction value, a delay anomaly score and a channel health degree; Please refer to Figure 2The pre-trained delay intelligent evaluation model is used for comprehensive analysis of the original scattered performance data to obtain a structured evaluation result. In this embodiment, the training method of the delay intelligent evaluation model includes the following sub-steps: 201. Obtain training data, which includes time series performance data and corresponding network topology data of multiple communication channels in a historical time period; 202. Construct an initial evaluation model, which includes a time series prediction submodule, an anomaly detection submodule, and a health degree evaluation submodule connected in sequence; 203. Iteratively train the initial evaluation model through a total loss function until a convergence condition is met to obtain the delay intelligent evaluation model; wherein the total loss function at least includes a first loss function and a second loss function, the first loss function is used to constrain the predicted delay value output by the time series prediction submodule to conform to the physical law in the communication field, and the second loss function is used to constrain the anomaly score output by the anomaly detection submodule to reflect the dependence transmission in the network topology.

[0022] Specifically, the constructed initial evaluation model is an end-to-end deep learning architecture, which includes three logically connected and information-sharing submodules; the time series prediction submodule is constructed based on a time series neural network, which is used to learn the time-dependent pattern in the performance data and output the predicted value of the channel delay in the future period. The anomaly detection submodule is used to identify abnormal delay behavior deviating from the normal mode. This module first models the input network topology data using a graph neural network. The graph neural network enables the representation vectors of each node (network element) and edge (channel) to aggregate the neighbor information, thereby generating a channel representation vector containing the topological dependence. This vector not only contains the historical features of the channel itself, but also encodes its context in the network structure. Secondly, these representation vectors are sent to unsupervised anomaly detection algorithms such as Isolation Forest to determine whether they belong to an anomaly and output a quantitative delay anomaly score. The health degree evaluation submodule is a multilayer perceptron containing an attention mechanism, which is used to comprehensively evaluate the overall running state of the channel. The module takes the outputs of the two aforementioned submodules, as well as the basic performance data and suspected root cause information provided by the anomaly detection submodule, as inputs to calculate a comprehensive channel health score.

[0023] The first loss function is used to constrain the time series prediction submodule to ensure that its prediction result not only fits the historical data, but also conforms to the physical law in the communication field. The second loss function is used to constrain the anomaly detection submodule to ensure that its output anomaly score can effectively reflect the real fault dependence and transmission relationship in the network topology. The model training process minimizes the total loss through the back propagation algorithm until the model performance converges on the validation set, and finally obtains a trained delay intelligent evaluation model that can be used in a production environment.

[0024] In this embodiment, the first loss function is specifically used to optimize the time series prediction sub-module, and the calculation includes the following processes: 1. Calculate the data fitting loss between the predicted delay value output by the time series prediction sub-module and the real delay value; 2. Calculate the constraint loss based on the physical law, including the delay non-negativity loss, the delay change smoothness loss and the traffic periodicity loss; 3. Calculate the first loss function value according to the weighted sum of the data fitting loss and the constraint loss.

[0025] Specifically, using the mean square error standard loss function, the difference between the predicted delay value output by the time series prediction sub-module and the corresponding real delay value in the training data is calculated, which ensures that the model learns the basic pattern of the historical data. In order to integrate prior knowledge in the field of communication into the model, a constraint loss based on physical law is constructed, which includes delay non-negativity loss, delay change smoothness loss and traffic periodicity loss; wherein, the delay non-negativity loss punishes the predicted negative delay value, because the physical delay cannot be negative; the delay change smoothness loss constrains the change rate of adjacent time predicted delay within a reasonable range, avoiding the occurrence of sharp jump which does not conform to the characteristics of signal transmission; the traffic periodicity loss: by comparing the difference between the predicted delay curve and the known network traffic day / week cycle template, the model is encouraged to learn and fit the periodicity of network traffic. The above data fitting loss and constraint loss are weighted and summed according to the preset weight coefficient to obtain the final first loss function value. This step combines data-driven and knowledge-driven, which significantly improves the accuracy and reasonableness of the prediction.

[0026] In this embodiment, the second loss function is specifically used to optimize the anomaly detection sub-module, and the calculation includes the following processes: 1. Input the time series performance data and network topology data into the anomaly detection sub-module; 2. The graph neural network in the anomaly detection sub-module performs message passing and aggregation according to the network topology data to generate a channel representation vector containing topological dependency; 3. Calculate the Figure One consistency loss reflecting the topological dependency according to the channel representation vector; 4. Input the channel representation vector into the Isolation Forest algorithm for anomaly judgment to calculate the anomaly detection loss; 5. Calculate the second loss function value according to the weighted sum of the Figure One consistency loss and the anomaly detection loss.

[0027] Specifically, time-series performance data is used as features for nodes and edges, and network topology data defines the connection relationships between nodes and edges; both are input into the anomaly detection submodule. The graph neural network in this submodule performs multi-layer message passing and feature aggregation based on the topology structure, generating a channel representation vector containing topological dependencies for each channel. To enhance the model's utilization of topological relationships, a... Figure One A consistency loss is used to encourage topologically adjacent or related channels to have relatively similar representation vectors in the feature space; conversely, the representations of unrelated channels should be differentiated. The channel representation vectors generated in step 2 are input into the Isolation Forest algorithm. Multiple trees are constructed to isolate samples, and the path length required for each sample (channel) to be isolated is calculated. Shorter paths are more likely to indicate anomalies. Based on this principle, an anomaly detection loss is defined such that the latency anomaly score output by the model is consistent with the anomaly severity determined by the Isolation Forest algorithm. Figure One The consistency loss and the anomaly detection loss are weighted and summed to obtain the final second loss function value. This forces the model to consider both the anomaly of the data itself and the transmission logic of the network topology when detecting anomalies.

[0028] In this embodiment, the total loss function also includes a third loss function, used to optimize the health assessment submodule, which is specifically used for: 1. Input the latency prediction value output by the timing prediction submodule, the latency anomaly score and suspected root cause information output by the anomaly detection submodule, and the basic performance data into the health assessment submodule; 2. In the health assessment submodule, the attention network dynamically learns the weights of each input feature in the current network state and outputs a channel health score; 3. Calculate the difference between the channel health score and the baseline health score based on expert rule annotation, and use it as the third loss function value.

[0029] Specifically, the time delay prediction value output by the time prediction sub-module, the time delay anomaly score and suspected root cause information output by the anomaly detection sub-module, and the original basic performance data are collectively input to the health assessment sub-module. The attention network in the sub-module dynamically analyzes the current input feature set and automatically learns the weight of each input feature under the current network state, rather than using fixed weights. For example, when predicting that the future time delay will deteriorate sharply, the attention network will increase the weight of the time delay prediction value feature; when detecting a high anomaly score and a clear root cause, the weight of the anomaly score and root cause information will be increased. Based on the learned dynamic weights, the model comprehensively calculates and outputs the final channel health score. In order to train this sub-module, a reference standard is needed; by annotating the historical channel state in the training data according to expert experience rules, a baseline health score is generated. The third loss function is to calculate the difference between the channel health score output by the model and this baseline health score, and use the difference to guide the parameter update of the attention network and the evaluation model.

[0030] S3. Generating an intelligent time delay map of the communication network based on the evaluation results; wherein the visualization elements of the intelligent time delay map are dynamically associated with the evaluation results, and the visualization elements include colors, line thicknesses, data labels, and warning icons that dynamically change according to the evaluation results; Referring to Figure 3 This step converts the evaluation results output by the above steps into a visual time delay map. The principle is to dynamically map abstract numerical values and diagnostic conclusions to visual elements such as colors, thicknesses, icons, etc. that are directly visible on the topology map, and the map is automatically refreshed as the background evaluation results are periodically updated or changed in real time, thereby providing network operation and maintenance personnel with real-time and intuitive global situational awareness of network time delay status, performance bottlenecks, and potential risks.

[0031] In this embodiment, mapping rules from evaluation results to visualization elements are established; based on the mapping rules, the following operations are performed: 1. Assign a corresponding color to each communication channel link in the topology map according to the channel health score or the time delay prediction value; 2. Adjust the display thickness of the link according to the pre-defined channel business importance level; 3. When the time delay anomaly score exceeds the preset threshold, superimpose and display a warning icon on the corresponding link.

[0032] Specifically, the state-based color mapping assigns a color to each communication channel link in the topology graph. The specific mapping rule is: taking the channel health score or latency prediction value as input, mapping through a continuous color gradient; for example, from green representing health, to yellow representing warning, to red representing serious problems; the higher the health score, the closer the link color to green; the larger the predicted latency value, the closer the link color to red. Importance-based thickness mapping: adjusting the display thickness of the link to intuitively reflect the importance of the traffic it carries or the historical traffic level. According to the pre-defined channel traffic importance level in the network management system, different levels of links are set to different rendering thickness. For example, the channel carrying core traffic is displayed with the thickest line, so as to guide the operation and maintenance personnel to quickly focus on the key resources in the complex network topology. Abnormal threshold-based icon warning: when the latency anomaly score exceeds the preset threshold, i.e. there is a high probability of abnormal behavior of the channel, the system will automatically display a warning icon on the corresponding position of the channel link. This provides direct visual alarm, surpassing the warning strength of simple color change.

[0033] In the embodiment, the mapping rule further includes visual positioning of fault root cause, specifically as follows: 1. When the evaluation result contains suspected root cause information, a root cause identifier is displayed on the network element device node corresponding to the suspected root cause information in the intelligent latency map. 2. The display style of the root cause identifier is different from the warning icon.

[0034] Root cause identifier mapping: when the evaluation result contains suspected root cause information, i.e. the list output by the anomaly detection submodule pointing to a specific network element device or link, the system will render a special root cause identifier, such as a red bullseye icon or a fault wrench icon, on the network element device node corresponding to the suspected root cause information in the intelligent latency map. Style differentiation design: the display style of the root cause identifier is designed to be significantly different from the warning icon indicating where the abnormal phenomenon occurs, while the root cause identifier indicates where the abnormality may originate from.

[0035] Through the execution of the above mapping rules, an intelligent latency map integrating performance status, traffic weight, anomaly alarm and root cause positioning is generated. The map serves as an interactive visualization platform, enabling complex network performance evaluation results to be intuitively and quickly understood and operated by operation and maintenance personnel.

[0036] S4. In response to the inspection instruction on the target communication channel in the intelligent latency map, an inspection report is automatically generated in combination with the evaluation result corresponding to the target communication channel.

[0037] The step works on the principle of converting the above-mentioned intelligent analysis results into standardized documents that can be directly used to guide operation and maintenance actions through human-computer interaction. When the maintenance personnel issues an inspection instruction on the intelligent time delay map for a certain target communication channel, the system will immediately respond to the instruction, automatically retrieve and integrate all relevant evaluation results generated for the channel in step S2, and through the integrated report generation module, without any manual data sorting and text writing, directly output a detailed and structured inspection report.

[0038] In this embodiment, the operation of automatically generating an inspection report is realized through the following three sub-steps: 1. Fill the time delay prediction value, time delay anomaly score, channel health degree and suspected root cause information in the evaluation results of the target communication channel into the corresponding fields of the preset inspection report template; 2. Based on the evaluation results, generate natural language text containing performance trend description, abnormal diagnosis conclusion and maintenance suggestion; 3. Integrate the filled template and natural language text to generate a complete inspection report containing channel state summary, trend analysis, diagnosis conclusion and maintenance suggestion, and output in a specified format.

[0039] The specific inspection report template includes a document framework of multiple standardized fields. The system automatically extracts the corresponding time delay prediction value, time delay anomaly score, channel health degree and suspected root cause information and other key data from the evaluation results of the channel, and fills them into the corresponding fields of the template. In order to generate report content beyond simple data listing and with analysis depth, the system drives a natural language generation component based on the same evaluation results. The component converts numerical indicators into descriptive text that is easy to understand according to predefined logical rules and knowledge base. For example, generate performance trend description according to time delay prediction value, generate abnormal diagnosis conclusion according to anomaly score and root cause information, and generate specific maintenance suggestion combined with network operation and maintenance knowledge base.

[0040] Finally, the system intelligently integrates the report template filled with structured data generated in the first step and the natural language text containing analytical description generated in the second step to form a complete inspection report. The report usually contains channel state summary, performance trend analysis, AI diagnosis conclusion and specific maintenance suggestion, etc. After the report is generated, the system automatically renders and packages it in a specified format, and can directly display and provide a download link through the interface, or automatically distribute it to the designated maintenance personnel through email and work order system, thereby completing the whole process from instruction triggering to report delivery.

[0041] The application converts the communication channel inspection from a passive response mode depending on artificial experience to an active early warning and accurate diagnosis mode driven by data intelligence through the fusion of intelligent analysis models and dynamic visual maps, and greatly improves the efficiency of operation and maintenance decision and network reliability.

[0042] It can be understood that those skilled in the art can combine various embodiments in the above embodiments to obtain various embodiments of the technical solutions.

[0043] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the application and is not intended to limit the application. Any modification, equivalent replacement and improvement made within the spirit and principle of the application shall be included in the protection scope of the application.
