DaQAPO: Supporting flexible and fine-grained event log quality assessment

Abstract

Process mining can provide valuable insights in business processes using an event log containing process execution data. Despite the significant potential of process mining to support the analysis and improvement of processes, the reliability of process mining outcomes depends on the quality of the event log. Real-life logs typically suffer from various data quality issues. Consequently, thorough event log quality assessment is required before applying process mining algorithms. This paper introduces DaQAPO, the first R-package which supports flexible and fine-grained event log quality assessment. It provides a rich set of tests to identify a wide range of event log quality issues, while having sufficient flexibility to allow the detection of context-specific quality issues.
