Scalable discovery of hybrid process models in a cloud computing environment
Process descriptions are used to create products and deliver services. To lead better processes and services, the first step
is to learn a process model. Process discovery is such a technique which can automatically extract process models from event logs.
Although various discovery techniques have been proposed, they focus on either constructing formal models which are very powerful
but complex, or creating informal models which are intuitive but lack semantics. In this work, we introduce a novel method that returns
hybrid process models to bridge this gap. Moreover, to cope with today’s big event logs, we propose an efficient method, called f-HMD,
aims at scalable hybrid model discovery in a cloud computing environment. We present the detailed implementation of our approach
over the Spark framework, and our experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is efficient and scalabl

Understanding User Behaviour through Action Sequences: from the Usual to the Unusual
Action sequences, where atomic user actions are represented in a labelled, timestamped form, are becoming a fundamental data asset in the inspection and monitoring of user behaviour in digital systems. Although the analysis of such sequences is highly critical to the investigation of activities in cyber security applications, existing solutions fail to provide a comprehensive understanding due to the complex semantic and temporal characteristics of these data. This paper presents a visual analytics approach that aims to facilitate a user-involved, multi-faceted decision making process during the identification and the investigation of “unusual” action sequences. We first report the results of the task analysis and domain characterisation process. Then we describe the components of our multi-level analysis approach that comprises of constraint-based sequential pattern mining and semantic distance based clustering, and multi-scalar visualisations of users and their sequences. Finally, we demonstrate the applicability of our approach through a case study that involves tasks requiring effective decision-making by a group of domain experts. Although our solution here is tightly informed by a user-centred, domain-focused design process, we present findings and techniques that are transferable to other applications where the analysis of such sequences is of interest
Deep Decision Trees for Discriminative Dictionary Learning with Adversarial Multi-Agent Trajectories
With the explosion in the availability of spatio-temporal tracking data in
modern sports, there is an enormous opportunity to better analyse, learn and
predict important events in adversarial group environments. In this paper, we
propose a deep decision tree architecture for discriminative dictionary
learning from adversarial multi-agent trajectories. We first build up a
hierarchy for the tree structure by adding each layer and performing feature
weight based clustering in the forward pass. We then fine tune the player role
weights using back propagation. The hierarchical architecture ensures the
interpretability and the integrity of the group representation. The resulting
architecture is a decision tree, with leaf-nodes capturing a dictionary of
multi-agent group interactions. Due to the ample volume of data available, we
focus on soccer tracking data, although our approach can be used in any
adversarial multi-agent domain. We present applications of proposed method for
simulating soccer games as well as evaluating and quantifying team strategies.Comment: To appear in 4th International Workshop on Computer Vision in Sports
