Geo-Enhanced High-Order Feature Interaction Network for Cloud API QoS Prediction
摘要
In the era of open cloud, cloud API is an important component and key enabling technology to achieve efficient data transmission, artificial intelligence algorithm empowerment, and software development cost reduction and efficiency. With the proliferation of cloud API with similar functionality, quality of service (QoS) becomes essential for differentiating cloud API performance, and QoS-driven prediction for cloud API has emerged as a critical topic for high quality cloud API selection. However, existing methods often inadequately utilize contextual information in resource-constrained scenario, limiting the improvement of cloud API prediction performance. We in this paper propose a geo-enhanced high-order feature interaction network (GHFIN) for cloud API QoS prediction. Firstly, a correlation analysis was conducted on real-world QoS dataset to explore the relationship between QoS data and geospatial context. Then, we design a geo-enhanced strategy that effectively utilizes the hierarchical relationships of geospatial entities (country, province, city, and district) through an offline real-time coordinate conversion module. On this basis, a geo-enhanced cloud API QoS prediction network GHFIN was designed, which aims to learn the high-order feature interactions through layer-wise feature stacking. Experimental results on two real-world QoS datasets illustrate the effectiveness of GHFIN compared to the classic and state-of-the-art methods, and our extensive analysis shows how the geospatial context and high-order feature interaction positively impact the performance of cloud API QoS prediction.
