Structuring process models
… the ideas of Donald E. Knuth to conclude that process modeling is both a science and an art. Process modeling does have an aesthetic sense. Similar to composing an opera or writing a novel, process modeling is carried out by humans who undergo creative practices when engineering a process …

Corrective Evolution of Adaptable Process Models
Modeling business processes is a complex and time-consuming task, which can be simplified by allowing process instances to be structurally adapted at runtime, based on context (e.g., by adding or deleting activities). The process model then no longer needs to include a handling procedure for every …

Searching business process models by example
Business processes are fundamental to the operations of a company. Each product manufactured and every service provided is the result of a series of actions that constitute a business process. Business process management is an organizational principle that makes the processes of a company explicit …

Validating Gaussian Process Models in Computer Experiments
… we present a methodology for validating Gaussian process models: Gaussian process emulators and simulator discrepancy models. A Gaussian process emulator is a representation of our beliefs about a mathematical model implemented in a computer program known as a simulator. By ``simulator …

Building user context into workflow process models
… the aim is to builduser context into workflow process models.This work is divided into three phases, the first of which is concerned with the application ofcontext to workflows and introduces the new model. The outcome of this phase is a set ofcontext-driven workflows. To ensure robustness of …

Descriptive business process models at run-time
… consequences are to be avoided. Since business processes are elementary parts of modern organisations they are also required to efficiently adapt to these changes in quick and flexible ways. This requirement demands a more dynamic handling of business processes, i.e. treating business processes …

New marked point process models for microscopy images
… and biomedical engineering. As a result, image processing plays a critical role in this era of science and technology. In materials image analysis, image segmentation and feature detection are considered very important.</p> <p>The first part of this research aims to resolve the segmentation …

A compliance management framework for business process models
Companies develop process models to explicitly describe their business operations. In the same time, business operations, business processes, must adhere to various types of compliance requirements. Regulations, e.g., Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002, internal policies, best practices are just a few …

Computational Scientific Discovery Using Rate-Based Process Models
… complex systems by automating the model building process. These techniques fall within the discipline of computational scientific discovery, which has its roots in the early development of artificial intelligence. The approaches developed in this thesis differ from most existing automated model …

Automatically generating computer simulation models from business process models.
… place for organisations to use both Business Process Modelling and Simulation tools for a variety of business operations. Although these tools are used for different purposes, they are often used on the same projects, but at a different point in its lifecycle. Business Process Modelling is a …

Catalogue Based Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) of Process Models
… generate the required plant simulation models from a simulation model catalogue of physical components after completion of the engineering process, without requiring modelling expertise from the planning engineer to run the simulation. In this work, the approach is named …

Optimizing credit limit policy by Markov Decision Process Models
… Lenders traditionally applied static decision models to manage the credit limit of credit card accounts. A growing number of lenders though want improved models so as to monitor the long-term risk and return of credit card borrowers.<br/>This study aims to use Markov Decision Process, which is …

Analysis of relationship between software metrics and process models
… thesis studies the correlation between software process models and software metrics. To support our studies we have defined a Process - Metric Evaluation Framework and derived an evaluation template from it. The template served as a basic tool in studding the relationships between various process …

New Spatio-temporal Hawkes Process Models For Social Good
… become available, the demand for robust models that capture contagion across events is also getting stronger. Hawkes processes stand out given their ability to capture a wide range of contagion and self-excitation patterns, including the transmission of infectious disease, earthquake …

Efficient Deterministic Approximate Bayesian Inference for Gaussian Process models
Gaussian processes are powerful nonparametric distributions over continuous functions that have become a standard tool in modern probabilistic machine learning. However, the applicability of Gaussian processes in the large-data regime and in hierarchical probabilistic models is severely limited by …
