Abstract

A process mining algorithm is only as good as its evaluation on actual data. Unfortunately, real life data is often not available. While one can easily synthesize data by simulating process models, event logs obtained in this way tend to show artificial patterns not found in practice, while real-life processes produce behavior not reproduced in a naïve approach.
