Gamma Training Dataset

This training dataset included optical network topologies that are generated via SNR-BA method [1] with nodes scattered uniformly randomly over a grid the size of the north american continent. Here there is a minimum radius that is adhered to (100km) between the nodes. The nodes are between scales of 55-100 nodes. The routings of the network are computed under uniform bandwidth conditions with the first-fit k-shortest-path (FF-kSP) algorithm and sequential loading (SL) until the maximum state of the network is found at zero blocking. The Gaussian noise (GN) model is used to calculate the signal-to-noise ratio of paths and the total throughput of the network. This throughput is given as a training label. [1] R. Matzner, D.
