Abstract

The internet is increasingly important today. Because every aspect of life is in some manner closely tied to the internet, it is impossible for us to think about a tomorrow without it. The goal of this forecast is to predict network usage using past observations. The internet usage forecast can be beneficial for multiple reasons. The internet service providers are more benefited from this research so that they can plan for their future and implement necessary steps wherever required. The Long Short-term Memory (LSTM) model and the Simple Exponential Smoothing (SES) model are implemented in this research. Both LSTM and SES models are widely used for time series forecasts. The required data is gathered from an open-source platform. The analysis confirmed that the SES model outperformed the LSTM model in accuracy. The model accuracy is measured with appropriate metrics.
