Communication Network Alarm Correlation Based on the Confidence Fusion Algorithm

Abstract:

In this article we achieve SDH communication network correlation analysis by the confidence fusion algorithm. We take the effect of the alarm topology relationship on the alarm timing relationship into the calculation process of confidence fusion algorithm .Thus it can get alarm correlation results more in line with objective facts. According to the correlation calculation results it forms the alarm correlation transactions, then applying the alarm correlation transactions to the alarm association rules mining. We compare the mining results with the traditional method based on sliding window. The experimental results show that the mining results are more effective after introducing the confidence fusion algorithm.
