Multi-level abstraction for trace comparison and process discovery

作者:

Highlights:

• We provide a multi-level process execution trace abstraction mechanism.

• Multi-level abstraction manages delays and interleaving actions.

• We extend a similarity metric to compare abstracted traces.

• We provide abstracted traces as an input to process discovery.

• In experiments abstraction hides irrelevant details while maintaining key behavior.
