In predictive process analytics, current and historical process data in event logs is used to predict the future, e.g., to predict the next activity or how long a process will still require to complete. Recurrent neural networks (RNN) and its subclasses have been demonstrated to be well suited for creating prediction m…
Comparing business process variants using event logs is a common use case in process mining. Existing techniques for process variant analysis detect statistically-significant differences between variants at the level of individual entities (such as process activities) and their relationships (e.g. directly-follows rela…
Automated process discovery is a class of process mining methods that allow analysts to extract business process models from event logs. Traditional process discovery methods extract process models from a snapshot of an event log stored in its entirety. In some scenarios, however, events keep coming with a high arrival…
We consider the problem of separating error messages generated in large distributed data center networks into error events. In such networks, each error event leads to a stream of messages generated by hardware and software components affected by the event. These messages are stored in a giant message log. We consider …
In complex processes, various events can happen in different sequences. The prediction of the next event given an a-priori process state is of importance in such processes.

The aim of process discovery, originating from the area of process mining, is to discover a process model based on business process execution data.

We show that univariate and symmetric multivariate Hawkes processes are only weakly causal: the true log-likelihoods of real and reversed event time vectors are almost equal, thus parameter estimation via maximum likelihood only weakly depends on the direction of the arrow of time. In ideal (synthetic) conditions, test…
