AI summary

Systems and methods that use historical data comprising capacity gain solutions and their associated gains at various locations to train a machine learning model. The trained machine learning model, upon receiving a new location (e.g., latitude and longitude coordinates), recommends the top n (e.g., the top 3) solutions that should be deployed at the new location to improve telecommunications network performance. The machine learning model uses clustering techniques to perform the recommendations.
