Efficient QoS Data Prediction Based on Tensor Kernel Paradigm-Tensor Decomposition

In the Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) environment, the prediction efficiency is low when user recommendation is based on Quality of Service (QoS) data due to network environment and other factors. Traditional methods use Collaborative Filtering (CF) or tensor decomposition methods to mine the relationship between historical QoS data for prediction, but there are problems with prediction accuracy and efficiency. Given this, this paper proposes an efficient QoS data prediction method (CTT) combining tensor kernel paradigm-tensor decomposition. The method first introduces the tensor kernel norm to approximate the tensor rank function to better capture the spatio-temporal correlation of real QoS data; Second, tensor decomposition is combined to address inefficiencies. Experimental results on the public QoS dataset WS-Dream show that the method significantly improves the runtime while guaranteeing prediction accuracy and applies to scenarios with different data missing densities.
