Process mining is a relatively young and developing research area with the main idea of discovering, monitoring and improving processes by extracting information from the event logs. With the increase of cloud computing and shared infrastructures, event logs of multiple organizations are available for analysis where cross-organizational process mining stands with the opportunity for organizations learning from each other. The approach proposed in this study mines process models of organizations and calculates performance indicators; followed by clustering of organizations based on performance indicators and finally spots mismatches between the process models to generate recommendations. This approach is implemented as extensible and configurable plugin set in ProM framework and tested by synthetic and real life logs where successful and suitable results are achieved within evaluation metrics. Generated recommendation results indicate that the use of this approach considerably helps users to focus on the areas of process models with potential performance improvement, which are difficult to spot manually and visually.

Generating performance improvement suggestions by using cross organizational process mining Yılmaz, Onur; Karagöz, Pınar (null; 2015-12-10) Process mining is a relatively young and developing research area with the main idea of discovering, monitoring and improving processes by extracting information from event logs. With the increase of cloud computing and shared infrastructures, event logs of multiple organizations are available for analysis where cross-organizational process mining stands with the opportunity for organizations learning from each other. The approach proposed in this study mines process models of organizations and calculates p...
Extracting process hierarchies by multi-sequence alignment adaptations Esgin, Eren; Karagöz, Pınar (2021-01-01) Process mining is an active research area that provides a wide range of automated process discovery, conformance checking and process enhancement solutions by extracting process information from event logs. With the emerge of new shared economy models and system architectures, monolithic perspective of process mining, i.e. a single process within a single organisation, is evolved towards cross-organisational business processes. The results can be used to form new collaboration among the organisations and sh...
Process Profiling based Synthetic Event Log Generation ESGIN, EREN; Karagöz, Pınar (2019-09-19) The goal of process mining is to discover the process behavior from the runtime information of process executions. Having labeled process logs is crucial for process mining research. However, real life event logs at process-aware information systems are mostly partially assigned to case identifiers, known as unlabeled event log problem. As a remedy to labeled data need in process mining research, we propose an approach to generate synthetic event logs according to the provided process profile, which outline...
Environmental applications of hyperspectral anomaly and target detection algorithms Soydan, Hilal; Karpuz, Celal; Department of Mining Engineering (2017) The objective of this thesis study is to understand the capacity of hyperspectral anomaly detection and target detection algorithms for contamination mapping, with a focus on developing a new methodology for environmental problems related to coal mining operations. Considering the data availability, specific chemical structure and reflectance properties as well as being one of the common contaminants in mining operations, hydrocarbon induced problems are studied for water and soil medium separately. Having ...
A Hybrid Approach to Process Mining: Finding Immediate Successors of a Process by Using From-To Chart Esgin, Eren; Karagöz, Pınar (2009-12-15) Process mining is a branch of data mining that aims to discover process model from the event logs. In this study, we propose a hybrid approach to process mining in such a way that, "from-to chart" is used as the front-end to monitor the transitions among activities of a realistic event log. Another novelty of this study is developed evaluation metrics, which are used for finding immediate successors in order to convert these raw relations into dependency/frequency graph.
