Abstract

The analysis of event data recorded by information systems is becoming increasingly relevant. An increasing data-centric analysis of processes by using process mining techniques has a direct impact on the management of business processes. To achieve a positive impact on business process management, a high quality data basis is important. This paper presents an approach for the application of variational autoencoder for the filtering of anomalous event data in an online process mining environment, which help to improve the results of process mining techniques and thus positively influence business process management. For anomaly detection in an unsupervised environment, mass-volume and excess-mass scores are used as metrics. The results are compared on the basis of established algorithms such as one-class support vector machine, isolation forest and local outlier factor. These insights are used to highlight the benefits of this approach for process mining and business process management.
