Experimental Classification of xApp Conflicts in O-RAN: Slicing vs. Per-UE Scheduling
Rashmi Sharan Sinha, Merim Dzaferagic, Marco Ruffini +1
Concurrent applications (xApps) in the Near-Real-Time RAN Intelligent Controller (Near-RT RIC) of the Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) can issue control intents that are jointly i…
Sea-Scan: High-Accuracy, ML-based Dark Vessel Detection and Localisation via Weakly Supervised DAS Monitoring
Tian Tian, Agastya Raj, Lara Flanagan +2
We present an ML-based vessel detection and localization system, trained with weak supervision from imperfect AIS labels, that achieves a 97.8% detection rate at 1.98% false-trigge…
Is Our Benchmark Enough? An Analysis of Continual Learning for MLLMs
Van-Tuan Tran, Shruthi Gowda, Merim Dzaferagic +1
Continual adaptation is essential for multimodal large language models (MLLMs) deployed across evolving domains, but the state-of-the-art MR-LoRA method highly relies on the assump…
PRIM: Meta-Learned Bayesian Root Cause Analysis
Christopher Lohse, Anish Dhir, Amadou Ba +3
Root cause analysis (RCA) in complex systems is challenging due to error propagation across multiple variables, the need for structural causal knowledge, and the computational cost…
UB-SMoE: Universally Balanced Sparse Mixture-of-Experts for Resource-adaptive Federated Fine-tuning of Foundation Models
Van-Tuan Tran, Hong-Hanh Nguyen-Le, Marco Ruffini +1
Heterogeneous LoRA-rank methods address system heterogeneity in federated fine-tuning of foundation models by assigning client-specific ranks based on computational capabilities. H…
msData: A Millisecond-Resolution Network Dataset for Advancing Time Series Foundation Models
Subina Khanal, Seshu Tirupathi, Merim Dzaferagic +2
Time series foundation models (TSFMs) require diverse, real-world datasets to adapt across varying domains and temporal frequencies. However, current large-scale datasets predomina…
Mitigating xApp conflicts for efficient network slicing in 6G O-RAN: a graph convolutional-based attention network approach
Sihem Bakri, Indrakshi Dey, Harun Siljak +2
O-RAN (Open-Radio Access Network) offers a flexible, open architecture for next-generation wireless networks. Network slicing within O-RAN allows network operators to create custom…
Demonstration of Cooperative Transport Interface over Open Source 7.2 split RAN and Virtualised Open PON Network
Merim Dzaferagic, Kevin O'Sullivan, Bruce Richardson +4
We demonstrate end-to-end 5G Open RAN over PON using off-the-shelf open networking hardware and open source RAN software. The implementation of the Cooperative Transport Interface…
Modular and Integrated AI Control Framework across Fiber and Wireless Networks for 6G
Merim Dzaferagic, Marco Ruffini, Daniel Kilper
The rapid evolution of communication networks towards 6G increasingly incorporates advanced AI-driven controls across various network segments to achieve intelligent, zero-touch op…
Decentralized Multi-Party Multi-Network AI for Global Deployment of 6G Wireless Systems
Merim Dzaferagic, Marco Ruffini, Nina Slamnik-Krijestorac +21
Multiple visions of 6G networks elicit Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a central, native element. When 6G systems are deployed at a large scale, end-to-end AI-based solutions will…
ML-based handover prediction over a real O-RAN deployment using RAN Intelligent controller
Merim Dzaferagic, Bruno Missi Xavier, Diarmuid Collins +3
O-RAN introduces intelligent and flexible network control in all parts of the network. The use of controllers with open interfaces allow us to gather real time network measurements…
Demonstration of Cooperative Transport Interface using open-source 5G OpenRAN and virtualised PON network
Frank Slyne, Kevin O Sullivan, Merim Dzaferagic +6
We demonstrate a real-time, converged 5G-PON through the Cooperative Transport Interface, synchronising 5G and PON-DBA upstream schedulers. This innovative approach, implemented us…
