• Abstract summary: We introduce a framework for extracting and encoding features from object-centric event data. We calculate features on the object-centric event data, leading to accurate measures. We use explainable AI in the prediction use cases to show the utility of both the object-centric features and the structure of the sequential and graph-based encoding.

• Abstract: Traditional process mining techniques take event data as input where each event is associated with exactly one object. An object represents the instantiation of a process. Object-centric event data contain events associated with multiple objects expressing the interaction of multiple processes. As traditional process mining techniques assume events associated with exactly one object, these techniques cannot be applied to object-centric event data. To use traditional process mining techniques, the object-centric event data are flattened by removing all object references but one. The flattening process is lossy, leading to inaccurate features extracted from flattened data. Furthermore, the graph-like structure of object-centric event data is lost when flattening. In this paper, we introduce a general framework for extracting and encoding features from object-centric event data. We calculate features natively on the object-centric event data, leading to accurate measures. Furthermore, we provide three encodings for these features: tabular, sequential, and graph-based. While tabular and sequential encodings have been heavily used in process mining, the graph-based encoding is a new technique preserving the structure of the object-centric event data. We provide six use cases: a visualization and a prediction use case for each of the three encodings. We use explainable AI in the prediction use cases to show the utility of both the object-centric features and the structure of the sequential and graph-based encoding for a predictive model.

  Predictive Process Monitoring focuses on predicting future states of ongoing process executions, such as forecasting the remaining time. Recent developments in Object-Centric Process Mining have enriched event data with objects and their explicit relations between events. We propose the Heterogeneous Object Event Graph encoding (HOEG), which integrates events and objects into a graph structure with diverse node types. We then adopt a heterogeneous Graph Neural Network architecture, which incorporates these diverse object features in prediction tasks.

We show that this simple and efficient approach achieves better reconstruction performance than an equivalent real-valued autoencoder on simple multi-object datasets. We also show that it achieves competitive unsupervised object discovery performance to a SlotAttention model on two datasets, and manages to disentangle objects in a third dataset where SlotAttention fails - all while being 7-70 times faster to train.
