[0170] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the SME network element only records one synchronization timestamp (i.e., the first time) corresponding to the current model training capability information; the second time refers to the time when the training service consumer sends the first request; when the time interval between the second time of the first request of the training service consumer and the latest synchronization timestamp (i.e., the first time) is less than a target time threshold, the model training capability information of the SME network element and the MME network element is considered to be synchronized, and then the SME network element sends the first feedback information to the corresponding training service consumer. The target time threshold can be a time length set in advance according to specific application scenarios and requirements.

[0171] Step 411: If the model training capability information synchronized by the second network element is not received, the first network element sends a second request to the second network element.

[0172] The second request includes the identifier of the third network element, the selection criteria, and a uniform resource identifier.

[0173] Step 412: The second network element receives the second request sent by the first network element, and sends the first feedback information to the third network element corresponding to the identifier of the third network element in response to the second request.

[0174] It should be noted that the "sending the first feedback information to the third network element corresponding to the identifier of the third network element" in steps 405 and 412 can be implemented in the following way:

[0175] A1: The second network element finds the model training capability information, and determines the identifier of the fourth network element based on the selection criteria.

[0176] A2: The second network element sends the first feedback information to the third network element corresponding to the identifier of the third network element.

[0177] The first feedback information further includes the model training capability information.

[0178] It should be noted that the first feedback information can further include one or more of the following: model identifier, training information, notification URI.

In one possible implementation, the fourth network element in FIGS. 4-7 can refer to a target network element determined from the fourth network element.

[0180] Step 413: The third network element receives the first feedback information sent by the first network element or the second network element.

[0181] Step 414: The third network element receives the fifth feedback information sent by the first network element.

[0182] It should be noted that after step 413 and step 414, step 415 can be executed.

[0183] Step 415, the third network element determines the target identifier of the target network element from the identifiers of the plurality of fourth network elements based on the model training capability information.

[0184] The model training capability information includes one or more of the following:

[0185] Model information corresponding to the model-related model requirement information;

[0186] An identifier of the model;

[0187] Model information.

[0188] The model information includes an application scenario of the model and / or data information of the model.

[0190] Resource information of the model, algorithm information of the model, input information of the model, output information of the model, training framework information of the model, and software library information of the model.

[0192] Step 416, the third network element sends a model training request to the target network element based on the target identifier.

[0193] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, if the training service consumer obtains identifiers of a plurality of training service producers, the training service consumer sorts the training service producers providing the obtained model training capability information and the self requirement according to the sorting result, and the training service consumer can select an identifier of a training service producer with a high ranking as the target identifier based on the sorting result, and send a request for a model training service to a target producer corresponding to the target identifier.

[0194] In other embodiments of the present disclosure, the method can further include:

[0195] Step 417, if a new fourth network element is added, the first network element receives a query address request sent by the second network element.

[0196] The query address request can be a request for querying the address of the training service producer.

[0197] Step 418, the first network element sends a uniform resource identifier of the new fourth network element to the second network element in response to the query address request.

[0198] Wherein, the SME network element can feed back the URI of the newly added new training service producer to the MME network element in response to the query address request.

[0199] Step 419, the second network element sends third feedback information to the third network element corresponding to the identification of the third network element based on the selection criteria.

[0200] Wherein, the third feedback information includes one or more of the identification of the new fourth network element, training information, model training capability information and uniform resource identifier.

[0201] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the MME network element obtains the URI of the newly added new training service producer, and after selecting the final new training service producer based on the selection criteria, can send an update producer notification (i.e. the third feedback information) to the training service consumer.

At the same time, the linkage feedback of the SME network element and the MME network element, the MME network element can intelligently feed back the training service producer information according to the demand of different training service consumers at this moment, avoiding subsequent service conflict and further reducing communication overhead.

[0208] Further, the training service consumer adds a query or discovers a (unique or multiple) training service producer capable of this model training before requesting model training, thereby ensuring the execution of the training service and reducing unnecessary communication overhead (fewer steps, fewer interactions, and less information sent) due to the inability to identify a qualified training service producer.

[0209] In other embodiments of the present disclosure, the training service consumer can send a query model training capability information request to the MME network element; the query model training capability information request includes the training service consumer ID and the selection criteria; the MME network element authorizes the training service consumer and sends a query model training capability information feedback to the training service consumer, wherein the query model training capability information feedback includes the training service producer ID and the model training capability information. Then, the training service consumer sends a discovery model training service request to the SME network element, and the discovery model training service request includes the training service producer ID and the training service consumer ID; at this time, the SME network element authorizes the training service consumer and sends a discovery model training service feedback to the training service consumer; wherein the discovery model training service feedback includes one or more of the training service producer ID, the URI, and the training information. Then, the training service consumer sends a model training service request to the training service producer corresponding to the training service producer ID, and the training service producer returns a model training service feedback to the training service consumer.
