Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary training of neural network models using historical customer data and KPIs before deployment. This preliminary action creates a pre-configured anomaly detection system that can quickly process current customer data without requiring complex real-time computations during operation, thereby improving customer retention while managing computational complexity through offline model preparation.

AI summary

Anomalies are detected corresponding to user equipment (UE) performance degradation. A neural network is trained using historical network key performance indicators (KPIs), customer retention metrics, and network KPIs. As a result, the trained neural network is configured to output a plurality of customer impact zones, including a threshold for each of the plurality of customer impact zones. The trained neural network may further identify an anomaly that has caused the UE's performance degradation to exceed a threshold and identify an actionable field task that may be implemented by a field team and that may lower the UE's performance degradation below a threshold.
