Object-Centric Process Mining for Process Analysis and Operational Support

Object-centric process mining is a novel paradigm which has been gaining an increasing attention thanks to its potential to overcome limitations of traditional process mining techniques. In this PhD project, we aim at developing novel techniques able to leverage an object-centric paradigm to provide data-driven decision support on running process executions. In particular, we plan to develop novel techniques to a) identify process behaviors which impact the process outcome; b) generate diagnostics for deviant behaviors; and, c) deliver predictions on a KPI of interest at a given moment of a process execution. The manuscript will delve into the research questions and the methodology envisioned for each of these goals.
