• Title: A behaviouristic approach to representing processes and procedures in the OASIS 2 ontology
• Authors: Giampaolo Bella and Gianpietro Castiglione and Daniele Francesco Santamaria
• Abstract summary: This article presents an extension to the OASIS 2 OWL to combine the capabilities for representing agents and their behaviours with the full conceptualization of processes and procedures. The overarching goal is to deliver a foundational ontology that deals with agent planning, reaching a balance between generality and applicability, which is known to be an open challenge.

• Abstract: Foundational ontologies devoted to the effective representation of processes and procedures are not widely investigated at present, thereby limiting the practical adoption of semantic approaches in real scenarios where the precise instructions to follow must be considered. Also, the representation ought to include how agents should carry out the actions associated with the process, whether or not agents are able to perform those actions, the possible roles played as well as the related events. The OASIS ontology provides an established model to capture agents and their interactions but lacks means for representing processes and procedures carried out by agents. This motivates the research presented in this article, which delivers an extension of the OASIS 2 ontology to combine the capabilities for representing agents and their behaviours with the full conceptualization of processes and procedures. The overarching goal is to deliver a foundational OWL ontology that deals with agent planning, reaching a balance between generality and applicability, which is known to be an open challenge.

  We propose a novel framework for agent-oriented planning in multi-agent systems, leveraging a fast task decomposition and allocation process. We integrate a feedback loop into the proposed framework to further enhance the effectiveness and robustness of such a problem-solving process.

• Extending predictive process monitoring for collaborative processes [0.9208007322096533]
  Predictive process monitoring is based on exploiting execution data from past instances to predict the execution of current cases. It is possible to make predictions on the next activity and remaining time, among others, to anticipate possible deviations, violations, and delays in the processes to take preventive measures. In this work, we propose an extension for collaborative processes of traditional process prediction, considering particularities of this type of process.

  Unraveling causal relationships among the execution of process activities is a crucial element in predicting the consequences of process interventions. This work offers a systematic approach to the unveiling of the causal business process by leveraging an existing causal discovery algorithm over activity timing. Our methodology searches for such discrepancies between the two models in the context of three causal patterns, and derives a new view in which these inconsistencies are annotated over the mined process model.

  We introduce action mapping, a novel approach that divides the learning process into two steps: first learn feasibility and subsequently, the objective. This paper focuses on the feasibility part by learning to generate all feasible actions through self-supervised querying of the feasibility model. We demonstrate the agent's proficiency in generating actions across disconnected feasible action sets.

  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.
