The influence of dataset size on the performance of cell outage detection approach in LTE-A networks
2015
The configuration and maintenance of constantly evolving mobile cellular networks are getting more and more complex and hence expensive. Self-Organizing Networks (SON) concept is an umbrella term for the set of automated solutions for network operations proposed by 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) group. Automated cell outage detection is one of the components of SON functionality. In early studies our research group developed data-driven approach for the detection of malfunctioning cells. In this paper we investigate the performance of the proposed solution as a function of the density of active users and the size of observation interval. The evaluation is conducted in Long Term E…
Modified Glasgow Prognostic Score is Associated With Risk of Recurrence in Bladder Cancer Patients After Radical Cystectomy
2015
Recently, many studies explored the role of inflammation parameters in the prognosis of urinary cancers, but the results were not consistent. The modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS), a systemic inflammation marker, is a prognostic marker in various types of cancers. The aim of the present study was to investigate the usefulness of the preoperative mGPS as predictor of recurrence-free (RFS), overall (OS), and cancer-specific (CSS) survivals in a large cohort of urothelial bladder cancer (UBC) patients.A total of 1037 patients with UBC were included in this study with a median follow-up of 22 months (range 3-60 months). An mGPS = 0 was observed in 646 patients (62.3%), mGPS = 1 in 297 pa…
