Movement Prediction Using Bayesian Learning for Neural Networks

Nowadays, path prediction is being extensively examined for use in the context of mobile and wireless computing towards more efficient network resource management schemes. Path prediction allows the network and services to further enhance the quality of service levels that the user enjoys. In this paper we present a path prediction algorithm that exploits human creatures habits. In this paper, we present a novel hybrid Bayesian neural network model for predicting locations on Cellular Networks (can also be extended to other wireless networks such as WI-FI and WiMAX). We investigate different parallel implementation techniques on mobile devices of the proposed approach and compare it to many standard neural network techniques such as: Back-propagation, Elman, Resilient, Levenberg-Marqudat, and One-Step Secant models. In our experiments, we compare results of the proposed Bayesian Neural Network with 5 standard neural network techniques in predicting both next location and next service ...
