An operational support approach for Mining Unstructured Business Processes

The refined process mining framework contains a set of activities that use extracted information from event logs, discovered models and normative ones. Among these activities, we find those dealing with running events in a Structured Business Process (SBP) context, which are the Detect, the Predict and the Recommend activities. These three activities are nominated as an operational support system that aims at detecting deviations, predicting events and recommending actions. In this regard, operational support systems perform well on SBP while, it stills a challenging task for an Unstructured Business Process (UBP). This puts forward the difficulty of predicting events and recommending actions for UBP, because of its complex structure. In this context, simplification and structuring operations must be applied. Therefore, the intervention of other process mining activities is required for business process simplification and structuring. To this end, we present an operational support approach dealing with UBP, using the refined process mining framework activities

Real-Time Visual Analytics for Remote Monitoring of Patient’s Health

The recent proliferation of advanced data collection technologies for Patient Generated Health Data (PGHD) has made remote health monitoring more accessible. However, the complex nature of the big volume of medical generated data presents a significant challenge for traditional patient monitoring approaches, impeding the effective extraction of useful information. In this context, it is imperative to develop a robust and cost-effective framework that provides the scalability and deals with the heterogeneity of PGHD in real-time. Such a system could serve as a reference and would guide future research for monitoring patient undergoing a treatment at home conditions. This study presents a real-time visual analytics framework offering insightful visual representations of the multimodal big data. The proposed system was designed following the principles of User Centered Design (UCD) to ensure that it meets the needs and expectations of medical practitioners. The usability of this framework was evaluated by its application to the visualization of kinematic data of the upper limbs’ movement of patients during neuromotor rehabilitation exercises
