Online Learning to Cache and Recommend in the Next Generation Cellular Networks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
An efficient caching can be achieved by predicting the popularity of the files accurately. It is well known that the popularity of a file can be nudged by using recommendation, and hence it can be estimated accurately leading to an efficient caching strategy. Motivated by this, in this paper, we consider the problem of joint caching and recommendation in a 5G and beyond heterogeneous network. We model the influence of recommendation on demands by a Probability Transition Matrix (PTM). The proposed framework consists of estimating the PTM and use them to jointly recommend and cache the files. In particular, this paper considers two estimation methods namely a) Bayesian estimation and b) a genie aided Point estimation. An approximate high probability bound on the regret of both the estimation methods are provided. Using this result, we show that the approximate regret achieved by the genie aided Point estimation approach isO(T2/3√logT) while the Bayesian estimation method achieves a much better scaling ofO(√T). These results are extended to a heterogeneous network consisting ofMsmall base stations (SBSs) with a central macro base station. The estimates are available at multiple SBSs, and are combined using appropriate weights. Insights on the choice of these weights are provided by using the derived approximate regret bound in the multiple SBS case. Finally, simulation results confirm the superiority of the proposed algorithms in terms of average cache hit rate, delay and throughput.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
