For cognitive radio systems, it is important to use efficient algorithms that search for free channels that can be provided to secondary users. Therefore, this paper is devoted to improving the accuracy of prediction frequency resource occupancy of a cellular communication system using spatiotemporal radio environment maps. The formation of a radio environment map is implemented for the fourthgeneration cellular communication system Long-Term Evolution. Taking this into account, a model structure has been developed that includes data generation and allows training and testing of an artificial neural network to predict the occupancy of frequency resources presented as the contents of radio environment map cells. A method for assessing prediction accuracy is described. The simulation model of the cellular communication system is implemented in the MatLab. The developed frequency resource occupancy prediction model is implemented in the Python. The complete file structure of the model is presented. The experiments were performed using artificial neural networks based on the Long Short-Term Memory and Kolmogorov – Arnold neural network architectures, taking into account its modification. It was found that with an equal number of parameters, the Kolmogorov –Arnold neural network learns faster for a given task. The obtained research results indicate an increase in the accuracy of prediction the occupancy of the frequency resource of the cellular communication system when using the Kolmogorov – Arnold neural network.

The short-term prediction of road traffic condition is one of the main tasks of transportation modelling. The main purpose of which are traffic control, reporting of accidents, avoiding traffic jams due to knowledge of traffic flow and subsequent transportation planning. A number of solutions exist — both model-driven and data driven had proven to be successful in capturing the dynamics of traffic flow. Nevertheless, most space-time models suffer from high mathematical complexity and low efficiency. Artificial Neural Networks, one of the prominent datadriven approaches, show promising performance in modelling the complexity of traffic flow. We present a neural network architecture for traffic flow prediction on a real-world road network graph. The model is based on the combination of a recurrent neural network and graph convolutional neural network. Where a recurrent neural network is used to model temporal dependencies, and a convolutional neural network is responsible for extracting spatial features from traffic. To make multiple few steps ahead predictions, the encoder-decoder architecture is used, which allows to reduce noise propagation due to inexact predictions. To model the complexity of traffic flow, we employ multilayered architecture. Deeper neural networks are more difficult to train. To speed up the training process, we use skip-connections between each layer, so that each layer teaches only the residual function with respect to the previous layer outputs. The resulting neural network was trained on raw data from traffic flow detectors from the US highway system with a resolution of 5 minutes. 3 metrics: mean absolute error, mean relative error, mean-square error were used to estimate the quality of the prediction. It was found that for all metrics the proposed model achieved lower prediction error than previously published models, such as Vector Auto Regression, LSTM and Graph Convolution GRU.
