Claim One:
1. A method, comprising: receiving, by a system comprising a processor, data representing a first time series of failures of outgoing handovers corresponding to a wireless access point device, wherein the outgoing handovers are outbound communication transfers from a source cell of the wireless access point device to target cells; in response to quantifying the first time series of the failures of the outgoing handovers with respect to a first entropy that has been determined, based on a logarithm associated with the first time series of the failures, over a first probability distribution corresponding to the outgoing handovers, determining, by the system, that the source cell and a target cell of the target cells comprise a first anomalous relation represented by a first defined condition with respect to the first entropy; and in response to the determining, sending, by the system, a message directed to a device identifying the first anomalous relation to facilitate removal of the first anomalous cell relation from a data store identifying the target cell as a handover candidate.
