用扩展卡尔曼滤波分析时序服务质量，提升预测精度与效率

Predicting temporal Quality of Service (QoS) data is critical for optimizing network services and rationalizing resource allocation in cloud computing and service-oriented systems. Existing mainstream methods have achieved promising predictive performance. However, their purely data-driven manner limits their ability to capture non-stationary temporal patterns, thereby leading to accuracy degradation when temporal QoS data exhibits fluctuations. To tackle this limitation, we propose a novel Extended Kalman Filter-Enhanced Latent Feature Analysis (EKL) model to perform efficient and accurate temporal QoS prediction from the perspective of bidirectional model-data-driven learning. Its main idea is three-fold: a) designing a model-driven feature producer to obtain the temporal latent features to capture the intricate temporal pattern following the principle of an Extended Kalman Filter; b) building a data-driven feature producer based on the alternating least squares algorithm to identify time-invariant latent features describing intrinsic user-service characteristics; c) exploiting a density-oriented parallel strategy that achieves workload balancing by sorting users in accordance with their service invocation density, which effectively elevates computational efficiency. In addition, we provide a rigorous theoretical analysis to formally prove the convergence of the proposed EKL. Experimental evaluations conducted on real-world temporal QoS datasets reveal that our proposed EKL surpasses existing state-of-the-art models with respect to both computational efficiency and prediction accuracy for missing temporal QoS data.
