Abstract

Disclosed are systems and methods for adaptive resilient network communication. A system may monitor network traffic on multiple pathways between user equipment and an application or a service at a network destination, gather network telemetry data from the monitored network traffic, input the network telemetry data into a trained artificial intelligence model, and classify the network telemetry data using the model. The system may further determine, using the model, an anomaly condition in at least a portion of the multiple pathways, and in response to the determination of an anomaly, select a mitigation technique for the at least a portion of the multiple pathways.
