Posted onAuthorEric VerbeekLeave a comment

Dr. Marwan Hassani is assistant professor at the PA group with a focus on Real-Time Process Mining. His research interests include stream data mining, sequential pattern mining of multiple streams, efficient anytime clustering of big data streams and exploration of evolving graph data. He uses customer journey optimizationa and privacy-aware process mining as use cases for his research. Marwan received his PhD (2015) from RWTH Aachen University where he worked also as a postdoc until July 2016. He coauthored more than 60 scientific publications and serves as organizers for several internationally ranked workshops and multiple A* conferences in data mining.

  • Online Spatial Prediction Model for Citizens’ Public Space Complaints in Eindhoven -   Smart cities approach does not only emphasize the implementations of new technologies in a city but also highlights the importance of using new technologies for enabling citizens’ engagement in urban planning processes. In that regard, ICTs play a vital role in (i) supporting citizens to report their complaints related to the public spaces (i.e. Read More ...
  • Log-based vs. Model-based Concept Drift Detection - 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 ...
  • Real-Time Process Mining for Customer Journey Data - 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 ...
  • Finding Patterns in Evolving Graphs - 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 ...
  • Using Sequential Pattern Mining to Detect Drifts in Streaming Data - 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 ...
