Predicting whether a mobile device will join a wireless telecommunication network

A method comprising:

• obtaining multiple attributes associated with a UE,
• wherein the multiple attributes include a numerical value type or a categorical value type,
• wherein the multiple attributes include at least two of:
• a lead age, an indication of a Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) confidence score, an indication of whether a website associated with the UE is provided, and an indication of a source associated with the UE,
• wherein the lead age indicates an amount of time since the UE contacted a wireless telecommunication network,
• wherein the DUNS confidence score indicates reliability associated with the UE, and
• wherein the source associated with the UE indicates whether the UE entered a physical premises associated with the wireless telecommunication network;
• converting a portion of the multiple attributes having the categorical value type into the numerical value type to obtain a converted attribute;
• providing the converted attribute and a portion of the multiple attributes having the numerical value type to an artificial intelligence (AI);
• obtaining from the AI an indication of whether the UE will join the wireless telecommunication network;
• and
• upon determining that the UE will join the wireless telecommunication network, initiating a communication associated with the UE.

A system comprising:

• at least one hardware processor;
• and
• at least one non-transitory memory storing instructions, which, when executed by the at least one hardware processor, cause the system to:
• obtain multiple attributes associated with a UE,
• wherein the multiple attributes include a numerical value type or a categorical value type;
• wherein the multiple attributes include at least two of:
• a lead age, an indication of a Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) confidence score, an indication of whether a website associated with the UE is provided, and an indication of a source associated with the UE,
• wherein the lead age indicates an amount of time since the UE contacted a wireless telecommunication network,
• wherein the DUNS confidence score indicates reliability associated with the UE, and
• wherein the source associated with the UE indicates whether the UE entered a physical premises associated with the wireless telecommunication network;
• convert a portion of the multiple attributes having the categorical value type into the numerical value type to obtain a converted attribute;
• provide the converted attribute and a portion of the multiple attributes having the numerical value type to an artificial intelligence (AI);
• obtain from the AI an indication of whether the UE will join the wireless telecommunication network;
• and
• upon determining that the UE will join the wireless telecommunication network, initiate a communication associated with the UE.
