The division of one physical 5G communications infrastructure into several virtual network slices with distinct characteristics such as bandwidth, latency, reliability, security, and service quality is known as 5G network slicing. Each slice is a separate logical network that meets the requirements of specific services or use cases, such as virtual reality, gaming, autonomous vehicles, or industrial automation. The network slice can be adjusted dynamically to meet the changing demands of the service, resulting in a more cost-effective and efficient approach to delivering diverse services and applications over a shared infrastructure. This paper assesses various machine learning techniques, including the logistic regression model, linear discriminant model, k-nearest neighbor's model, decision tree model, random forest model, SVC BernoulliNB model, and GaussianNB model, to investigate the accuracy and precision of each model on detecting network slices. The report also gives an overview of 5G network slicing.

Network slicing is a crucial enabler to support the composition and deployment of virtual network infrastructures required by the dynamic behavior of networks like 5G/6G mobile networks, IoT-aware networks, e-health systems, and industry verticals like the internet of vehicles (IoV) and industry 4.0. The communication slices and their allocated communication resources are essential in slicing architectures for resource orchestration and allocation, virtual network function (VNF) deployment, and slice operation functionalities. The communication slices provide the communications capabilities required to support slice operation, SLA guarantees, and QoS/ QoE application requirements. Therefore, this contribution proposes a networking slicing conceptual model to formulate the optimization problem related to the sharing of communication resources among communication slices. First, we present a conceptual model of network slicing, we then formulate analytically some aspects of the model and the optimization problem to address. Next, we proposed to use a SARSA agent to solve the problem and implement a proof of concept prototype. Finally, we present the obtained results and discuss them.
