Abstract

Over the past few years, the technology of process mining has become the backbone of many organizations’ process improvement initiatives. At its core, the technology automatically reconstructs how a process was executed by analyzing data readily available in today’s information systems. However, inferring what kind of problems exist in a process and where these exist still requires the extensive involvement of domain experts. In our research, we aim to address this issue by developing a process mining technique that leverages unstructured data (e.g., social media posts) and machine learning to automatically identify and eliminate process weaknesses.
