Abstract

Quality of Service (QoS) is a non-functional property that reflects the extent to which services provided by the providers meet the needs of the users. As the application of IoT and web services in real world is increasing, QoS prediction is becoming important to predict which service is suitable for a particular user. QoS information is not readily available to providers while providing service recommendation to the users. Thus, there is no certainty in providing the right services to the users. Recommendation systems need better strategies for recommending and managing services according to the user requirements. So, QoS prediction is highly essential for recommending the most suitable service for a user at that instant. In this work, Long short-term memory network (LSTM), Bidirectional long-short term memory network (BiLSTM), convolutional neural network (CNN) and Gated Recurrent Unit Network(GRU) have been used to perform QoS prediction. For this task, data from WS-Dream dataset is used. Initially, Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) algorithm is used to cluster similar users and services. Neural network algorithms have been implemented for accomplishing the prediction task. Prediction is performed in terms of response time and throughput properties. The performance of these algorithms is compared using Mean Absolute Error and Root mean squared error metrices.
