This curriculum spans the full lifecycle of process performance modeling in data mining, comparable in scope to a multi-workshop technical advisory program that integrates process discovery, conformance checking, predictive monitoring, and governance across complex enterprise systems.

Module 1: Foundations of Process Performance Modeling in Data Mining

  • Selecting key performance indicators (KPIs) that align with business process objectives while ensuring technical measurability from available data sources
  • Mapping process workflows to data capture points to assess completeness and latency in event logging
  • Defining process boundaries and scope to avoid overgeneralization or narrow overfitting in model development
  • Assessing data granularity requirements (e.g., transaction-level vs. aggregated) for accurate process representation
  • Identifying process variants across organizational units and determining whether to build unified or segmented models
  • Establishing baseline performance metrics before model deployment to enable meaningful impact assessment
  • Documenting assumptions about process stability and data consistency for audit and model revalidation
  • Integrating domain expertise into model design to ensure operational relevance and stakeholder acceptance

Module 2: Data Acquisition and Event Log Construction

  • Extracting event data from heterogeneous systems (ERP, CRM, BPM) while resolving schema mismatches and data type inconsistencies
  • Implementing timestamp normalization across time zones and system clocks to maintain chronological integrity
  • Handling missing or corrupted case identifiers by applying deterministic recovery rules or exclusion criteria
  • Designing data pipelines that preserve causality and sequence in event logs for process mining compatibility
  • Applying data retention policies to balance historical depth with storage and processing constraints
  • Resolving duplicate or split events caused by system retries or integration middleware behavior
  • Validating event log completeness using control-flow coverage metrics and gap detection algorithms

  • Implementing automated data validation checks within ETL workflows to flag regressions
  • Documenting data transformation logic for reproducibility and regulatory compliance

Module 4: Process Discovery and Model Generation

  • Selecting discovery algorithms (e.g., Alpha Miner, Heuristic Miner, Inductive Miner) based on log complexity and noise levels
  • Tuning algorithm parameters (e.g., dependency thresholds, noise filters) to balance model precision and generalization
  • Evaluating discovered models using fitness, precision, generalization, and simplicity metrics
  • Handling invisible or skipped activities in the discovered process model through heuristic inference
  • Generating multiple model variants to reflect different organizational units or customer segments
  • Integrating concurrency and loop patterns into models without overcomplicating control flow
  • Validating discovered models against domain expert knowledge to correct structural anomalies
