• Abstract: Decision mining enables the discovery of decision rules from event logs or streams, and constitutes an important part of in-depth analysis and optimisation of business processes. So far, decision mining has been merely applied in an ex-post way resulting in a snapshot of decision rules for the given chunk of log data. Online decision mining, by contrast, enables continuous monitoring of decision rule evolution and decision drift. Hence this paper presents an end-to-end approach for the discovery as well as monitoring of decision points and the corresponding decision rules during runtime, bridging the gap between online control flow discovery and decision mining. The approach provides automatic decision support for process-aware information systems with efficient decision drift discovery and monitoring. For monitoring, not only the performance, in terms of accuracy, of decision rules is taken into account, but also the occurrence of data elements and changes in branching frequency. The paper provides two algorithms, which are evaluated on four synthetic and one real-life data set, showing feasibility and applicability of the approach. Overall, the approach fosters the understanding of decisions in business processes and hence contributes to an improved human-process interaction.

  Decision mining aims to describe/predict the routing of a process instance at a decision point of the process. Existing techniques for decision mining have focused largely on describing decisions but not on predicting them. Our proposed approach provides explanations of the predicted decisions using SHAP values to support the elicitation of proactive actions.

  We show how to develop interpretable representations of how agents make decisions. By understanding the decision-making processes underlying a set of observed trajectories, we cast the policy inference problem as the inverse to this online learning problem. We introduce a practical algorithm for retrospectively estimating such perceived effects, alongside the process through which agents update them. Through application to the analysis of UNOS organ donation acceptance decisions, we demonstrate that our approach can bring valuable insights into the factors that govern decision processes and how they change over time.
