Incremental and interactive business process model repair in apromore

This paper presents the integration of a plugin for interactive and incremental business process repair into the Apromore advanced business process analytics platform. Given a model and an event log representing the behavior of a process as input, the plugin describes encountered behavioral differences between them as natural language statements, as well as graphical representations displayed over the model. The graphical representation of the differences provides visual guidance on how to repair the model so that it better reflects the observed behavior. Subsequently, the users have the option to select the discrepancies that need to be resolved and how to resolve them. The users can choose whether to follow the suggestion provided by the tool or to repair the discrepancies differently. The differences are updated with every repair applied over the model, resulting in an iterative procedure where the user has the ultimate control over the extent and the implementation of the changes over the model
