Discovering process models through relational disjunctive patterns mining

Abstract

The automatic discovery of process models can help to gain insight into various perspectives (e.g., control flow or data perspective) of the process executions traced in an event log. Frequent patterns mining offers a means to build human understandable representations of these process models. This paper describes the application of a multi-relational method of frequent pattern discovery into process mining. Multi-relational data mining is demanded for the variety of activities and actors involved in the process executions traced in an event log which leads to a relational (or structural) representation of the process executions. Peculiarity of this work is in the integration of disjunctive forms into relational patterns discovered from event logs. The introduction of disjunctive forms enables relational patterns to express frequent variants of process models. The effectiveness of using relational patterns with disjunctions to describe process models with variants is assessed on real logs of process executions.
