• Abstract summary: Most approaches to the suffix prediction problem learn to predict the suffix by learning how to predict the next activity only. This paper proposes a novel architecture based on an encoder-decoder model with an attention mechanism that decouples the representation learning of the prefixes from the inference phase.

• Abstract: Predictive monitoring is a subfield of process mining that aims to predict how a running case will unfold in the future. One of its main challenges is forecasting the sequence of activities that will occur from a given point in time -- suffix prediction -- . Most approaches to the suffix prediction problem learn to predict the suffix by learning how to predict the next activity only, not learning from the whole suffix during the training phase. This paper proposes a novel architecture based on an encoder-decoder model with an attention mechanism that decouples the representation learning of the prefixes from the inference phase, predicting only the activities of the suffix. During the inference phase, this architecture is extended with a heuristic search algorithm that improves the selection of the activity for each index of the suffix. Our approach has been tested using 12 public event logs against 6 different state-of-the-art proposals, showing that it significantly outperforms these proposals.

  Recent advances in algorithmic design show how to utilize predictions obtained by machine learning models from past and present data. Prior research in this context was focused on a paradigm where the predictor is pre-trained on past data and then used as a black box. In this work, we unpack the predictor and integrate the learning problem it gives rise for within the algorithmic challenge.

  The prediction of case suffixes provides input to estimate short-term workloads and execution times under different resource schedules. Existing methods to address this problem often generate suffixes wherein some activities are repeated many times, whereas this pattern is not observed in the data. The paper introduces a sampling approach aimed at reducing repetitions of activities in the predicted case suffixes.

  The goal of sequential event prediction is to estimate the next event based on a sequence of historical events. In practice, the next-event prediction models are trained with sequential data collected at one time. We propose a framework with hierarchical branching structures for learning context-specific representations.

  In non-clairvoyant scheduling, the task is to find an online strategy for scheduling jobs with a priori unknown processing requirements. We revisit this well-studied problem in a recently popular learning-augmented setting that integrates (untrusted) predictions in algorithm design. We show that these predictions have desired properties, admit a natural error measure as well as algorithms with strong performance guarantees.
