Data science is the profession of the future, because organizations that are unable to use (big) data in a smart way will not survive. It is not sufficient to focus on data storage and data analysis. The data scientist also needs to relate data to process analysis. Process mining bridges the gap between traditional model-based 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.

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 …
