  • Abstract
    This paper proposes ACO BP Miner, a novel method used to discover business process models from event logs using an Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm. ACO concepts are mapped to process model elements for enabling artificial ants to discover business process models that correctly correspond to the event logs. The process model discovered by ACO BP Miner is represented as a BPMN diagram [12]. The results are presented as a side by side comparison between the ACO BP Miner and the Genetic Miner [10].
