Mapping the integration of artificial intelligence into telecommunications
Abstract
The relationship between two rapidly evolving technologies, artificial intelligence (AI) and telecommunications, is examined. The current use of AI is primarily as expert systems, designed to aid in diagnosing complex equipment in an offline mode. Factors that led to deployment of expert systems in telecommunications domains are examined, and the possible future evolution of both technologies is charted. It is found that both technologies share common drivers, which contribute to the mapping between future telecommunications trends and AI capabilities. This leads to an exploration of how specific applications, such as natural language processing, distributed AI, and speech recognition, may be used with expert systems in the future intelligent network.>

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
