Description:
Many Americans are facing tough choices between air conditioning and food due to a predicted 8% rise in household utility costs this summer, according to the National Energy Assistance Directors Association. Experts say policy changes in Congress are needed to boost assistance for those struggling most with utility expenses. Lower-income households spend a large portion of their budget on electricity costs which are rising due to fuel prices and transmission fees. Assistance programs that help offset costs need more funding to help vulnerable groups stay cool amid higher bills.

Professional investors have warned against investing in TMTG, citing the company's high valuation despite its poor financial performance and the various risks it faces, including Trump's legal troubles and potential electoral outcomes. There is also a risk that Trump could cash out his shares, negatively impacting shareholders. Supporters remain unwavering in their belief in Trump and the potential of Truth Social, despite the risks.")

_session-17-deployment-of-machine-learning-models-in-open-ran-networks.webp "Welcome back to our journey through the world of Open RAN and machine learning. In this session, In this session, we'll explore the deployment of machine learning models in Open RAN networks, focusing on practical examples and deployment strategies.<br/><br/>Deployment Example:<br/>Consider a scenario where an Open RAN operator wants to optimize resource allocation by predicting network congestion. They decide to deploy a machine learning model to predict congestion based on historical traffic data and network conditions.<br/><br/>Deployment Steps:<br/><br/>1. Data Collection and Preprocessing:<br/>The operator collects historical traffic data, including throughput, latency, and user traffic patterns.<br/>They preprocess the data to remove outliers and normalize features.<br/><br/>2. Model Development:<br/>Data scientists develop a machine learning model, such as a regression model, to predict congestion based on the collected data.<br/>They use a development environment with libraries like TensorFlow or scikit-learn for model development.<br/><br/>3. Offline Model Training and Validation (Loop 1):<br/>The model is trained on historical data using algorithms like linear regression or decision trees.<br/>Validation is done using a separate dataset to ensure the model's accuracy.<br/><br/>4. Online Model Deployment and Monitoring (Loop 2):<br/>Once validated, the model is deployed in the network's edge servers or cloud infrastructure.<br/>Real-time network data, such as current traffic conditions, is fed into the model for predictions.<br/>Model performance is monitored using metrics like prediction accuracy and latency.<br/><br/>5. Closed-Loop Automation (Loop 3):<br/>The model's predictions are used by the network's orchestration and automation tools to dynamically allocate resources.<br/>For example, if congestion is predicted in a certain area, the network can allocate additional resources or reroute traffic to avoid congestion.<br/><br/>Subscribe to \")
