• Abstract: An increasing number of organizations are deploying Large Language Models (LLMs) for a wide range of tasks. Despite their general utility, LLMs are prone to errors, ranging from inaccuracies to hallucinations. To objectively assess the capabilities of existing LLMs, performance benchmarks are conducted. However, these benchmarks often do not translate to more specific real-world tasks. This paper addresses the gap in benchmarking LLM performance in the Business Process Management (BPM) domain. Currently, no BPM-specific benchmarks exist, creating uncertainty about the suitability of different LLMs for BPM tasks. This paper systematically compares LLM performance on four BPM tasks focusing on small open-source models. The analysis aims to identify task-specific performance variations, compare the effectiveness of open-source versus commercial models, and assess the impact of model size on BPM task performance. This paper provides insights into the practical applications of LLMs in BPM, guiding organizations in selecting appropriate models for their specific needs.

  Large language models (LLMs) have gained increased popularity due to their remarkable success across various tasks. However, individual LLMs have limitations when applied to complex tasks because of such factors as training biases, model sizes, and the datasets used. We introduce SelectLLM, a novel algorithm that directs input queries to the most suitable subset of LLMs from a large pool.

  Large Language Models (LLMs) have the potential to semi-automate some process mining (PM) analyses. We propose PM-LLM-Benchmark, the first comprehensive benchmark for PM focusing on domain knowledge. We observe that most of the considered LLMs can perform some process mining tasks at a satisfactory level, but tiny models that would run on edge devices are still inadequate.

We report an absolute improvement of approximately 15% for classification tasks and 18% for generation tasks in the benchmark's metrics.

Our evaluation indicates that the best LLMs, despite not being trained on TS, perform comparably with state-of-the-art TS baselines.
