Two of the most important parts of a hospital are the Emergency room and the Operating room. HagaZiekenhuis deals with tens of thousands of patients every year. For each patient, everything is recorded in the Electronic Patient Record (Chipsoft Hix). Exploring the data recorded by both areas of the hospital opens the possibilities to understand Read More …
The biggest problem that Dutch hospitals face today is the lack of nursing staff. Therefore, hospital beds are closed to maintain safety levels for the already admitted patients. However, patients on the waiting list or those already planned for elective care experience longer waiting times. And sometimes emergency care beds have to be closed causing Read More …

Within the BPR4GDPR EU project, we are researching (among others) methods that enable a privacy-aware utilization of sensitive individual information. Several anonymization techniques are not enough to completely keep the process discovery completely privacy aware (e.g. the existence of rare diseases can still be revealed from an anonymized log file). Adding exactly “the correct amount” of Read More …
StrProMCDD is a recently published work that detects concept drifts in event streams (see the figure below). StrProMCDD uses several model-based distance measures to detect these deviations using an adaptive window concept. In this assignment, we would like to compare the performance of this model-based approach with log-based stream clustering approaches that try to detect drifts in Read More …

Process Discovery is an unsupervised learning problem with the task of discovering a graph-based model from sequences (or graphs) of event data that describes the data best. Generative Adversarial Neural Networks (GANNs) are a type of neural networks used to learn structures in an unsupervised fashion. The objective of this project is to explore the Read More …
Process mining assumes event data to be stored in an event log, which is technically either a relational table (attributes as columns) or a stream of events (attribute value pairs). Recently, we developed a new technique to store event data in a Graph database such as Neo4j. This allows to do process mining over various Read More …
A recent visual analytics technique called the “Performance Spectrum” https://github.com/processmining-in-logistics/psm allows us to gain more fine-grained insights into performance behavior and changes over time. A TU/e Master student showed that it is possible to mine synchronization of cases from the performance spectrum data showing that the behavior of a case depends on the mechanisms and Read More …
In many application domains, a process execution is captured using natural language. Think of medical records, customer complaints, legal records… The same holds for process models: they can be captured as text for medical guidelines, user manuals, legal regulations are typical examples of such cases. Such data forms a new challenge for the process mining Read More …
Available process discovery have been tested in the customer journey context under offline settings. Recent online process discovery approaches like: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/7376771 bring however a lot of added value for a real-time customer journey optimization. The objective of this assignment is to use two different customer journey datasets to test the effectiveness of such approaches for Read More …
The analysis of the temporal evolution of dynamic graphs like social networks is a key challenge for understanding complex processes hidden in graph structured data. Graph evolution rules capture such processes on the level of small subgraphs by describing frequently occurring structural changes within a network. Existing rule discovery methods make restrictive assumptions on the Read More …
BFSPMiner is an effective and efficient batch-free algorithm for mining sequential patterns over data streams was published very recently https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s41060-017-0084-8. An implementation of the algorithm is available here: https://github.com/Xsea/BFSPMiner. As BFSPMiner has proven to be effective (see Figures 10-14 of the paper) in different domains (see Table 1 in the paper), we would like to Read More …
for event log clustering, outlier detection, and pre-processing. We recently developed a technique to detect the context of events from an event log in an efficient way through sub-graph matching. This allows to identify events and parts of event logs which are similar or different to each other, allowing to cluster traces, detect outliers, and Read More …
The quality of process mining results highly depends on the quality of the input data where noise, infrequent behaviors, log incompleteness or many different variants undercut the assumptions of process discovery algorithms, and lead to low-quality results. ProM provides numerous event log pre-processing and filtering options, but they require expert knowledge to understand when which Read More …
In the context of process mining, we are often confronted with companies willing to share their data if we can sufficiently anonymize this. However, to date, there are no well-defined plugins to do such anonymizations. Therefore, we are looking for a Master student that is willing to help us with this. Part of the project Read More …
The Block Layout can be used to create a layout for a process graph. For this, it uses well-known Petri-net-based reduction rules to reduce the entire net into a single place. For nicely structured process graphs, this layout works quite well, but for more complex structured graphs, the resulting layout needs to be improved. Either Read More …
Aligning structured process models to event logs is a far from trivial task. In complex modelling languages, inclusive OR-split/join patterns play an important role and they are known to be notoriously difficult to align to event logs due to their large state-spaces. The known Petri net translations of OR-joins rely either on token coloring or Read More …
For experimenting with process discovery and Petri nets, scientists often rely on experiments with artificial models and logs. More often than not, these models are block structured as it is easy to generate such models by simply building a random process tree and translating that into a Petri net. However, Petri nets allow for more Read More …
Replaying event logs on Petri nets, either through token-replay or using alignments, is a complex task. Especially when models become larger and have more labels, the size of the models becomes a problem. In Petri net theory, many reduction rules exist for reducing Petri nets while retaining, for example, soundness of the model. Can we Read More …
