Temporal Hyperbolic Graph Representation Learning for Scale-Free Internet Routing and Delay Prediction

arXiv:2605.28155v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Predicting Internet round-trip time (RTT) is critical for routing optimization, quality-of-service (QoS) provisioning, and traffic engineering, yet remains challenging due to long-term temporal dependencies, evolving routing dynamics, and heavy-tailed latency distributions. While Temporal Graph Neural Networks (TGNNs) can model evolving network topologies, most existing approaches operate in Euclidean space, which poorly captures the hierarchical and scale-free structure of Internet routing graphs. Hyperbolic geometry provides a more suitable rep
The increasing complexity and scale of global internet infrastructure, coupled with the limitations of Euclidean geometry in modeling its structure, necessitate more advanced predictive analytics for network optimization.
Improved internet routing and delay prediction directly impacts the performance of vast digital economies, autonomous systems, and real-time AI applications, making global connectivity more efficient and reliable.
This research introduces a novel approach using hyperbolic geometry for graph representation learning, offering more accurate and robust predictions for scale-free internet routing, thereby enhancing network resilience and efficiency.
