Description
Summary:The rapid growth of data and the increasing complexity of modern networks have driven the demand for intelligent solutions in the information and communications technology (ICT) domain. Machine learning (ML) has emerged as a powerful tool, enabling more adaptive, efficient, and scalable systems in this field. This article presents a comprehensive survey on the application of ML techniques in ICT, covering key areas such as network optimization, resource allocation, anomaly detection, and security. Specifically, we review the effectiveness of different ML models across ICT subdomains and assess how ML integration enhances crucial performance metrics, including operational efficiency, scalability, and security. Lastly, we highlight the challenges and future directions that are critical for the continued advancement of ML-driven innovations in ICT.
