Automated Event Log Generation from Unstructured Text Using Finetuned LLMs

The paper introduces a scalable framework that uses finetuned large language models (LLMs) to translate unstructured textual resources into structured event logs for process mining. By creating a new text-to-log dataset and finetuning LLMs on it, the authors demonstrate that the resulting models produce high‑fidelity event logs, outperforming few‑shot or zero‑shot prompting methods. This approach enables previously unused organizational data, such as incident tickets and manuals, to be incorporated into process mining workflows.

LEDGER: Claim-to-Evidence Trace Graphs for Auditing LLM Agents

LEDGER is a tracing and review system for large language model agents that constructs layered trace graphs from observed sessions. It groups raw trace records into Evidence Nodes and Workflow Nodes, anchors artifacts as evidence, and adds typed semantic edges linking claims to supporting actions, artifacts, and checks. The resulting traces reveal workflow decisions, artifact lineage, repair steps, validation coverage, and claim‑support paths for evidence‑centered audit.

Agentic process evidence

The article discusses how AI agents are transforming software development by autonomously creating pull requests, selecting dependencies, refactoring code, interpreting test failures, and managing infrastructure across the SDLC. It highlights the lack of accountability for these transient processes, noting that traditional tools like git logs and governance frameworks assume human decision‑making, which no longer applies. To address this, the authors propose Agentic Process Evidence (APE), a signed, tamper‑evident, machine‑readable attestation that links AI agent sessions to their outcomes, enabling policy‑as‑code controls and human oversight only when necessary.

Resolution limits for process comparison from event data

The paper examines how event logs used in process mining can fail to reveal concurrent versus sequential activities, using a hospital example where blood tests and imaging may occur simultaneously or in alternating order. It demonstrates that standard stochastic language approaches only expose the assumptions of their discovery algorithms, often misrepresenting concurrency. The authors argue that the key to distinguishing concurrent behavior lies in the choice of recorded data—such as precise start and end times or object‑centric ordering—rather than simply increasing sample size.

Resolution limits for process comparison from event data

The paper examines how event data from hospital processes can obscure whether activities occur concurrently or sequentially. It shows that standard event‑log approaches, based on stochastic language, often fail to distinguish concurrency because any log can be explained by a model with no concurrent events. The authors argue that the key to resolving this ambiguity lies in the choice of what is recorded—such as precise start and end times or object‑centric ordering—rather than simply collecting more data.

Learning to Predict, Discover, and Reason in High-Cardinality Event Sequences

The article discusses a new approach to diagnosing vehicle faults by treating diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) as a high‑cardinality language. It proposes Transformer‑based models for predicting event sequences, scalable causal discovery frameworks, and a multi‑agent system that automatically generates Boolean error‑pattern rules. These methods aim to replace manual, error‑prone grouping of DTCs with automated, scalable fault diagnostics.

Agentic process evidence

The article discusses how AI agents are transforming software development by autonomously handling tasks across the SDLC, yet their actions are fleeting and lack traceability. It highlights the emerging security risks—intent mismatch, injection, and supply‑chain vulnerabilities—and the absence of standards for agentic provenance and governance. To address this, the authors propose Agentic Process Evidence (APE), a signed, tamper‑evident, machine‑readable attestation that links AI agent sessions to outcomes, enabling policy‑as‑code control and human oversight only when necessary.
