Continuous decaying of telco big data with data postdiction
Costa, Constantinos; Konstantinidis, Andreas; Charalampous, Andreas; Zeinalipour-Yazti, Demetrios; Mokbel, Mohamed F. (2019)In this paper, we present two novel decaying operators for Telco Big Data (TBD), coined TBD-DP and CTBD-DP that are founded on the notion of Data Postdiction. Unlike data prediction, which aims to make a statement about ...
