GAIN 5

RouteNet is a Graph Neural Network (GNN) model that estimates per-source-destination performance metrics (e.g., delay, jitter, loss) in networks. Thanks to its GNN architecture that operates over graph-structured data, RouteNet revealed an unprecedented ability to learn and model the complex relationships among topology, routing and input traffic in networks. As a result, it was able to make performance predictions with similar accuracy than costly packet-level simulators even in network scenarios unseen during training. This provides network operators with a functional tool able to make accurate predictions of end-to-end Key Performance Indicators (e.g., delay, jitter, loss).

Quick Start

Requirements

We strongly recommend use Python 3.7, since lower versions of Python may cause problems to define all the PATH environment variables. The following packages are required:

Testing the installation

In order to test the installation, we provide a toy dataset that contains some random samples. You can simply verify your installation by executing the main.py file.

python main.py

You should see something like this:

4000/4000 [==============================] - 314s 76ms/step - loss: 67.8137 - MAPE: 67.8137 - val_loss: 150.7025 - val_MAPE: 150.7025

Epoch 00001: saving model to ../trained_modelsGNNetworkingChallenge\01-150.70-150.70

Training, evaluation and prediction

We provide two methods, one for training and evaluation and one for prediction. These methods can be found in the main.py file.

Training and evaluation

The main.py file automatically trains and evaluates your model. This script trains during a max number of epochs, evaluating and saving the model for each one.
