Abstract

It is obvious to notice that in collaborative applications, considerable processes are either implicit, or integrate existing processes. The discovery, and the explanation of these processes are a hot research topic. The work described in this paper is a contribution to these problems. Generally, workflow mining proposes techniques to acquire aworkflow model from a workflow log. In this paper, we present a new workflow mining technique to discover workflow patterns. This technique combines complementarily an algorithmic technique and a statistical analysis technique. This combination can deal with some ambiguities that the single use of the statistical analysis technique cannot resolve.
