Network traffic classification is a fundamental and intricate component of network management in the modern, high-tech era of 5G architectural design, planning of resources, and other areas. Investigation of traffic classification is a key responsibility of traffic engineering in SDN. SDN is a network programmability technology used in 5G networks that divides the control plane from the data plane. It also points the way for autonomous and dynamic network control. SDN needs data from the classification system's flow statistics to apply the appropriate network flow policies. To control the volume of heterogeneous network traffic data in 5G network service, the network administrator must implement a carefully supervised traffic investigation system. This study uses machine learning techniques to examine alternative ways of handling heterogeneous network traffic. The suggested approach is Ensemble Learning for Automated Network Traffic Categorization. i.e., CatBoosting for Automated network traffic classification for multiclass (Cat-ANTC) predicts traffic categorization and offers a higher prediction accuracy than individual models and a more regularized model formalization to decrease over-fitting and boost efficiency. The Cat-ANTC is evaluated using benchmark network traffic datasets that are openly accessible and contrasted with current classifiers and optimization methods. It is clear that when compared to the currently used ensemble techniques, the suggested ensemble methodology produces promising outcomes. Additionally, the proposed method is tested and shown to perform better than the classification of traffic flow using the current model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Traffic congestion is becoming a serious problem with the large number of vehicle on the roads. In the traditional traffic control system, the timing of the green light is adjusted regardless of the average traffic rate at the junction. Many strategies have been introduced to solve and improve vehicle management. However, in order to handle road traffic issues, an intelligent traffic management solution is required. This article represents a self adaptive real-time traffic light control algorithm based on the traffic flow. We present a machine learning approach coupled with image processing to manage the traffic clearance at the signal junction. The proposed system utilizes single image processing via neural network and You Only Look Once (YOLOv3) framework to establish traffic clearance at the signal. We employed YOLO architectures because it is accurate in terms of mean average precision (mAP), interaction over union (IOU) values and fast in object detection tasks as well. It runs significantly faster than other detection methods with comparable performance. The average processing time of single image was estimated to be 1.3 s. Further based on the input from YOLO we estimated the 'on' time period green light for effective traffic clearance. Several real time parameters like number of vehicles (two wheelers, four wheelers), road width and junction crossing time are considered to estimate the 'on'time of green light. Moreover, we used the real traffic images to test the performance and trained the system with different dataset. Our experiments investigation reveals that the predicted vehicle counts were well matched with the actual vehicle count and proposed method apprehended an average accuracy of 81.1%. The reported strategy is self adaptive, highly accurate, fast and has the potential to be implemented in the traffic clearance at the junctions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
