Using Sampling Strategy to Assist Consensus Sequence Analysis


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Consensus Sequences of event logs are often used in process mining to quickly grasp the core sequence of events to be performed in a process, or to represent the backbone of the process for doing other analyses. However, it is still not clear how many traces are enough to properly represent the underlying process. In this paper, we propose a novel sampling strategy to determine the number of traces necessary to produce a representative consensus sequence. We show how to estimate the difference between the predefined Expert Model and the real processes carried out. This difference level can be used as reference for domain experts to adjust the Expert Model. In addition, we apply this strategy to several real-world workflow activity datasets as a case study. We show a sample curve fitting task to help readers better understand our proposed methodology.
