Koenkk / MINERful

A fast, two-steps algorithm for the automated discovery and management of declarative business process constraints

MINERful

MINERful is a fast process mining tool for discovering declarative process models out of event logs. Event logs can be either real or synthetic, stored as XES, MXML, or text files (a collection of strings, in which every character is considered as an event, every line as a trace). Among the other things, MINERful can also create synthetic logs and export them as XES or MXML files, simplify existing Declare models, and import/export models written in JSON or in the ConDec native language. Simply play around with it!
