The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

our approach achieves a reliability score of 86.89%, significantly outperforming standard AI baselines optimized for raw throughput (31.65%) while maintaining a safe conservative bias.

C2weakest assumption

The commercial network dataset with 0.5 ms slot-level granularity is representative of actual MBS deployments and that the custom Asymmetric Safety Loss produces predictions that generalize beyond the training distribution without hidden overfitting to the specific test conditions.

C3one line summary

A lightweight Transformer predicts MCS success probabilities for 5G MBS on commercial 0.5 ms slot data using an asymmetric safety loss, reaching 86.89% reliability versus 31.65% for throughput-focused baselines.
