Item Capturing the sudden concept drift in process mining(CEUR-WS, 2015) Manoj Kumar, M.V.; Thomas, L.; Annappa, B.Concept drift is the condition when the process changes during the course of execution. Current methods and analysis techniques existing in process mining are not proficient of analyzing the process which has experienced the concept drift. State-of-the-art process mining approaches consider the process as a static entity and assume that process remains same from beginning of its execution period to end. Emphasis of this paper is to propose the technique for localizing concept drift in control-flow perspective by making use of activity correlation strength feature extracted using process log. Concept drift in the process is localized by applying statistical hypothesis testing methods. The proposed method is verified and validated on few of the real-life and artificial process logs, results obtained are promising in the direction of efficiently localizing the sudden concept drifts in process-log.Item Recommending an alternative path of execution using an online decision support system(Association for Computing Machinery acmhelp@acm.org, 2017) Thomas, L.; Manoj Kumar, M.V.; Annappa, B.Prediction of disease severity is highly essential for understanding the progression of disease and initiating an alternative path of execution, which is priceless in treatment planning. An online decision support system (ODeSS) is proposed here for stratification of the patients who may need Endoscopic Retrograde CholangioPancreatography (ERCP) and recommend an alternate path of execution. By this an immediate intervention can be avoided. In this study gallstone disease (GSD) whose prevalence is increasing in India is considered. ODeSS is a versatile non-linear information model which clustered the traces based on the duration of its completion. This is a Retrospective analyses of 575 traces. ODeSS applied the technique of longest common subsequence for identifying the sequence of an online execution and discovering to which cluster of variants it may belong. This discovery assist in taking appropriate clinical decision by recommending an alternative path of execution for such cases which may need emergency interventions. ODeSS performance was evaluated using area under receiver operating characteristic curve (area under ROC curve). This showed an accuracy of 0.9653 in prediction. The proposed model was validated using ROC curve in k-fold cross validation. Hence the proposed ODeSS can be used to conduct a non-linear statistical analysis since, the relationships between the predictive variables are not linear. It can be used as a clinical practice to recommend the path of execution. This would assist in better treatment planning, avoiding future complications. © 2017 ACM.Item Distilling lasagna from spaghetti processes(Association for Computing Machinery acmhelp@acm.org, 2017) Manoj Kumar, M.V.; Thomas, L.; Annappa, B.If the operational process is flexible, control flow discovery methods in process mining tend to produce Spaghetti (unstructured) models. Spaghetti models generally consist of large number of activities and paths. These models are unstructured, incomprehensible difficult to analyse, impossible to use during operational support and enhancement. Due The structural complexity of Spaghetti processes majority of techniques in process mining can not be applied on them. There is a at most necessity to design and develop methods for simplifying the structure of Spaghetti process to make them easily understandable and reusable. The methods proposed in this paper concentrates on offering the tools and techniques for analysing the Spaghetti process. The problems addressed in this paper are 1) converting the unstructured Spaghetti to structured and simplified Lasagna process, 2) identifying the list of possible, significant, and impossible paths of execution in Lasagna process. The proposed technique is verified and validated on real-life road traffic fine management event-log taken from standard repository. © 2017 ACM.Item On predicting the frequent execution patterns in information systems(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017) Manoj Kumar, M.V.; Thomas, L.; Annappa, B.Process mining research discipline offers a spectrum of techniques for analysing event logs. Event logs represent the history of process execution. This information can be used for monitoring, analysing and improving the operational processes. The currently available methods in process mining emphasise on constructing the static process model. These models depict various dimensions of the process under analysis. But, models can only represent the past execution history and can't be used to guide and control the prospectus execution of the process. There is a need for the methods and techniques which guide the future execution of process in the light of recorded information. This paper introduces a technique for identifying and predicting the frequent control-flow execution patterns in information systems. The proposed Position Weight Matrix proven to be efficient during experimentation and validation studies. © 2017 IEEE.Item Simplifying spaghetti processes to find the frequent execution paths(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH info@springer-sbm.com, 2018) Manoj Kumar, M.V.; Thomas, L.; Annappa, B.Control-flow discovery algorithms of Process Mining are capable of generating excellent process models until the process is structured (less number of activities and paths connecting between them). Otherwise, process model with Spaghetti structure will be generated. These models are unstructured, incomprehensible and cannot be used for operational support. This paper proposes the techniques for (1) converting Spaghetti (unstructured) process to Lasagna (structured) process, and (2) Identifying the frequent execution paths in the process under consideration. © 2018, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.Item Process Logo: An Approach for Control-Flow Visualization of Information System Process in Process Mining(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2022) Manoj Kumar, M.V.; Bs, B.S.; Sneha, H.R.; Thomas, L.; Annappa, B.; Vishnu Srinivasa Murthy, Y.V.S.This paper proposes a new technique named “Process Logo†for visualizing the causal relationship between the activities of a process (Control flow). Traditional process mining algorithms rely on representing the activity as a sequence of operations modeled using nodes and edges, as the number of activities increases, the representation of the entire control flow becomes quite tedious. Process logo is a compact yet highly informative method for visually representing the process model. It visually summarizes the number of activities, sequence of execution, relative significance, and dependency between activities. It uses a dynamic programming method—sequence alignment and clustering approach with Levenshtein measure as a distance measure. The proposed method is evaluated on the synthetic event log, the experimental result is promising. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
