• Abstract: Process mining focuses on the analysis of recorded event data in order to gain insights about the true execution of business processes. While foundational process mining techniques treat such data as sequences of abstract events, more advanced techniques depend on the availability of specific kinds of information, such as resources in organizational mining and business objects in artifact-centric analysis. However, this information is generally not readily available, but rather associated with events in an ad hoc manner, often even as part of unstructured textual attributes. Given the size and complexity of event logs, this calls for automated support to extract such process information and, thereby, enable advanced process mining techniques. In this paper, we present an approach that achieves this through so-called semantic role labeling of event data. We combine the analysis of textual attribute values, based on a state-of-the-art language model, with a novel attribute classification technique. In this manner, our approach extracts information about up to eight semantic roles per event. We demonstrate the approach's efficacy through a quantitative evaluation using a broad range of event logs and demonstrate the usefulness of the extracted information in a case study.
