A BDD Approach to the Feature Subscription Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
Modern feature-rich telecommunications services offer significant opportunities to human users. To make these services more usable, facilitating personalisation is very important since it enhances the users’ experience considerably. However, regardless how service providers organise their catalogues of features, they cannot achieve complete configurability due to the existence of feature interactions. Distributed Feature Composition (DFC) provides a comprehensive methodology, underpinned by a formal architecture model to address this issue. In this paper we present an approach based on using Binary Decision Diagrams (BDD) to find optimal reconfigurations of features when a user’s preferences violate the technical constraints defined by a set of DFC rules. In particular, we propose hybridizing constraint programming and standard BDD compilation techniques in order to scale the construction of a BDD for larger size catalogues. Our approach outperforms the standard BDD techniques by reducing the memory requirements by as much as five orders-ofmagnitude and compiles the catalogues for which the standard techniques ran out of memory.

Despite the recent resurgence of interest in learning methods for planning, most such efforts are still focused exclusively on classical planning problems. In this work, we investigate the effectiveness of learning approaches for improving over-subscription planning, a problem that has received significant recent interest. Viewing over-subscription planning as a domain-independent optimization ...
متن کاملFuzzy-rough Information Gain Ratio Approach to Filter-wrapper Feature Selection
Feature selection for various applications has been carried out for many years in many different research areas. However, there is a trade-off between finding feature subsets with minimum length and increasing the classification accuracy. In this paper, a filter-wrapper feature selection approach based on fuzzy-rough gain ratio is proposed to tackle this problem. As a search strategy, a modifie...

Spam is an unwanted email that is harmful to communications around the world. Spam leads to a growing problem in a personal email, so it would be essential to detect it. Machine learning is very useful to solve this problem as it shows good results in order to learn all the requisite patterns for classification due to its adaptive existence. Nonetheless, in spam detection, there are a large num...
متن کاملSolving a Telecommunications Feature Subscription Configuration Problem
Call control features (e.g., call-divert, voice-mail) are primitive options to which users can subscribe off-line to personalise their service. The configuration of a feature subscription involves choosing and sequencing features from a catalogue and is subject to constraints that prevent undesirable feature interactions at run-time. When the subscription requested by a user is inconsistent, on...
