• Abstract summary: We develop the first corpus of business process descriptions annotated with activities, gateways, actors and flow information. We present our new resource, including a detailed overview of the annotation schema and guidelines, as well as a variety of baselines to benchmark the difficulty and challenges of business process extraction from text.

• Abstract: Although there is a long tradition of work in NLP on extracting entities and relations from text, to date there exists little work on the acquisition of business processes from unstructured data such as textual corpora of process descriptions. With this work we aim at filling this gap and establishing the first steps towards bridging data-driven information extraction methodologies from Natural Language Processing and the model-based formalization that is aimed from Business Process Management. For this, we develop the first corpus of business process descriptions annotated with activities, gateways, actors and flow information. We present our new resource, including a detailed overview of the annotation schema and guidelines, as well as a variety of baselines to benchmark the difficulty and challenges of business process extraction from text.

  This paper introduces a contemporary solution, where central to our approach, is the use of dependency parsing and Named Entity Recognition (NER) We utilize Subject-Verb-Object (SVO) constructs for identifying action relationships and integrate semantic analysis tools, including WordNet, for enriched contextual understanding. The system adeptly handles data transformation and visualization, converting verbose extracted information into BPMN (Business Process Model and Notation) diagrams.

  TAGPRIME is a sequence tagging model that appends priming words about the information of the given condition to the input text. With the self-attention mechanism in pre-trained language models, the priming words make the output contextualized representations contain more information about the given condition. Extensive experiments and analyses on three different tasks that cover ten datasets across five different languages demonstrate the generality and effectiveness of TAGPRIME.
