Process Mining Insights

Overview

Process Mining offers Users a quick way to gain valuable insights into their processes without digging too deeply into the details. This method is enhanced with built-in Machine Learning capabilities that allow Users to identify the root cause of attributes. There are six types of insights available:

• Duration Insights: These insights predict the expected duration of a process under specific conditions.
• Length Insights: Length Insights provide information on the expected length (number of activity executions) of a process given certain conditions.
• Outcome Insights: Outcome Insights provide information for the most recent activity performed in the process, enabling Users to understand the final step before completion.
• Variant Insights: Variant Insights reveal the expected process behavior (variant type) when specific conditions are met.
• Attribute Frequency Insights: Attribute Frequency Insights showcase the most frequent attribute values within a process.
• Attribute Value Insights: Attribute Value Insights predict the expected values for specific attributes under certain conditions.

Discovering Insights

Process Mining Insights is available for all plugins within an event log. 

To open Insights:

1. Double-click on an event log and click on the 'Brain' icon located at the top right within the Analyzer plugin.
2. Select Discover Insights from the Dropdown menu.

Working with Insights

• Each insight comes with a description explaining its causes and effects.
• To view the effect of an insight, click on the View button associated with it. This enables Users to visualize the results based on the specified conditions.
• When viewing insights, temporary filters are created to display relevant information. Users can restore insights to their original state to remove these filters.
• Insights cannot be saved and will be removed after closing the log file. However, any generated filters can be saved for future use.
• The Delete icon: Clicking this icon will delete all discovered insights and create a clean workspace.
• The Delete with an arrow pointing up icon: Clicking this icon will restore the log to its original state, undoing any changes made by clicking View on a specific insight.
