• Abstract: Organizations execute decisions within business processes on a daily basis whilst having to take into account multiple stakeholders who might require multiple point of views of the same process. Moreover, the complexity of the information systems running these business processes is generally high as they are linked to databases storing all the relevant data and aspects of the processes. Given the presence of multiple objects within an information system which support the processes in their enactment, decisions are naturally influenced by both these perspectives, logged in object-centric process logs. However, the discovery of such decisions from object-centric process logs is not straightforward as it requires to correctly link the involved objects whilst considering the sequential constraints that business processes impose as well as correctly discovering what a decision actually does. This paper proposes the first object-centric decision-mining algorithm called Integrated Object-centric Decision Discovery Algorithm (IODDA). IODDA is able to discover how a decision is structured as well as how a decision is made. Moreover, IODDA is able to discover which activities and object types are involved in the decision-making process. Next, IODDA is demonstrated with the first artificial knowledge-intensive process logs whose log generators are provided to the research community.

  We address the problem of detecting anomalies among a set of binary processes via learning-based controlled sensing. To identify the anomalies, the decision-making agent is allowed to observe a subset of the processes at each time instant. Our objective is to design a sequential selection policy that dynamically determines which processes to observe at each time.

  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 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.
