FEEED: Feature Extraction from Event Data [0]

The analysis of event data is largely influenced by the effective characterization of descriptors. These descriptors serve as the building blocks of our understanding, encapsulating the behavior described within the event data. In light of these considerations, we introduce FEEED (Feature Extraction for Event Data), an extendable tool for event data feature extraction. FEEED represents a significant advancement in event data behavior analysis, offering a range of features to empower analysts and data scientists in their pursuit of insightful, actionable, and understandable event data analysis. What sets FEEED apart is its unique capacity to act as a bridge between the worlds of data mining and process mining. In doing so, it promises to enhance the accuracy, comprehensiveness, and utility of characterizing event data for a diverse range of applications.

A video tutorial on how to use this tool can be found here. If you'd like to learn more about how it works, see References below.

Installation

Requirements:

• Python > 3.9
• Java

To directly use meta feature extraction methods via import, install directly from PyPi with

pip install feeed

Run:

python -c "from feeed.feature_extractor import extract_features; print(extract_features('test_data/Sepsis.xes'))"

Usage

Features extracted by this tool stem from [2],[3],[4],[5]. Output data contains at least one feature with a feature_name and a corresponding value obtained by that feature's specific computation. The schema looks like this:

{
'log': 'Sepsis'
'feature_name': value
}

Every feature_name belongs to a feature_type, and a feature_type can comprise multiple features. The following Feature Types table presents the correspondence between feature_type and feature_name.

Feature types

Specific feature_names and feature_types can be selected as in the examples below:

Examples

For the following examples we used Sepsis event data[1].

Example 1:

Passing sublist of feature_names, e.g. ['start_activities_min', 'end_activities_max', 'within_day_min'], to get a list of values for those features only.

python -c "from feeed.feature_extractor import extract_features; print(extract_features('test_data/Sepsis.xes',  ['start_activities_min', 'end_activities_max', 'within_day_min']))"

outputs

SUCCESSFULLY: 3 features for Sepsis.xes took 0:00:00.200564 sec.
{'log': 'Sepsis', 'start_activities_min': 6, 'end_activities_max': 393, 'within_day_min': 0.0}

Example 2:

Passing sublist of feature_types, e.g. ['start_activities'], to get a list of values for the feature type 'start_activities' only

python -c "from feeed.feature_extractor import extract_features; print(extract_features('test_data/Sepsis.xes',  ['start_activities']))"

outputs

SUCCESSFULLY: 13 features for Sepsis.xes took 0:00:00.645850 sec.
{'log': 'Sepsis', 'n_unique_start_activities': 6, 'rel_unique_start_activities': 0.0070921985815602835, 'start_activities_iqr': 9.25, 'start_activities_kurtosis': 1.199106773708694, 'start_activities_max': 995, 'start_activities_mean': 175.0, 'start_activities_median': 12.0, 'start_activities_min': 6, 'start_activities_q1': 7.75, 'start_activities_q3': 17.0, 'start_activities_skewness': 1.7883562472303318, 'start_activities_std': 366.73787187399483, 'start_activities_variance': 134496.66666666666}

Example 3:

By not passing any list of feature_types to get the full list of all feature values for all feature_types, from the shell

python -c "from feeed.feature_extractor import extract_features; print(extract_features('test_data/Sepsis.xes'))"

For the order of feature_names as in Feature Type table:

python -c "from feeed.feature_extractor import extract_features; print(extract_features('test_data/Sepsis.xes', ['n_events', 'n_traces', 'n_variants', 'ratio_variants_per_number_of_traces',

2.6115894228132275}

Example 4:

Timestamps are read as UTC, so within_day is the UTC time of day by default. Pass the log's IANA time zone as tz to get the local time of day instead:

from feeed.feature_extractor import extract_features

features = extract_features("test_data/Sepsis.xes", ["within_day"], tz="Europe/Amsterdam")

within_day_mode is then 28800.0 (08:00 local time) instead of 21600.0 (06:00 UTC).

Example 5:

Event logs without traces, or whose traces contain no events, raise an EmptyLogError. To extract features from several event logs and skip empty ones:

from feeed import EmptyLogError
from feeed.feature_extractor import extract_features

results = []
for log_path in ["test_data/Sepsis.xes", "test_data/BPI_Challenge_2013_closed_problems.xes"]:
    try:
        results.append(extract_features(log_path))
    except EmptyLogError as e:
        print(f"Skipping: {e}")

EmptyLogError is a subclass of ValueError, but invalid feature names still raise a plain ValueError, so a typo stops the run instead of skipping every log.

Extending Features

This tutorial is for extending this tool to include additional features (e.g. time-based). As an example for this tutorial, we focus on the example of time-based features. The feeed/time.py script contains the class TimeBased, which extracts features from timestamps. FEEED focuses and extracts features of the whole log only (e.g., time within the day).

Assumptions and conditions

To include new features in this repo, first consider the following:

• Clarifying whether the proposed feature is on event-log-level instead of a single event, trace, or activity level.
• Next, check for dependency and Python version compatibility with this current repo (see setup.py).

If both conditions apply, move on to implementation.

Implementing any NewFeatures class

• Clone this repo to your local machine using git clone git@github.com:andreamalhera/feeed.git
• Include the new module containing the new_feature computation in feeed/, resulting in feeed/new_feature.py (e.g. feeed/time.py).
• Import the new class NewFeatures in feeed/feature_extractor.py (e.g. from .time import TimeBased as time_based)
  • NewFeatures should inherit from Feature to use extract.
  • Input for NewFeatures should support event-logs, as in pm4py.
  • Ensure output of the NewFeatures class is a dict of the sort: {"new_feature_name_1": value1, "new_feature_name_2": value2}.
  • Feature methods can assume a log with at least one event: extract calls Feature.check_log, which raises EmptyLogError otherwise. If NewFeatures overrides extract, call Feature.check_log(log) first.
• To call the new class and methods, include the new new_feature_type (e.g. "time_based") in the list of feeed/feature_extractor.py.
  • Include the new_feature_type in NEW_FEATURE_TYPE
• Include the new new_feature_type (e.g. "time_based") and its feature_namess (e.g. "accumulated_time_geometric_mean") in the Feature Type table.

Below, see an example of pseudo-code of how to implement a new (generic) feature extraction class. Note that cls is the class object of the form <class 'feeed.new_feature_type.NewFeatures>; **kwargs points to e.g. log attributes, which can also be replaced by simply log, if desired; and summarize() needs to be implemented depending on the feature level, meaning if arr_values is on a log level, summarize is the identity function:

import inspect

from .feature import Feature

class NewFeatures(Feature):
    def __init__(self, feature_names='new_feature_type'):
    self.feature_type="new_feature_type"
    self.available_class_methods = dict(inspect.getmembers(NewFeatures, predicate=inspect.ismethod))
    if self.feature_type in feature_names:
        self.feature_names = [*self.available_class_methods.keys()]
    else:
        self.feature_names = feature_names

    def helper_function(log):
        return len(log)*2

    @classmethod
    def new_feature_name_1(cls, **kwargs):
        double_length = NewFeatures.helper_function(log)
        return kwargs["event_attribute"] ** double_length

    @classmethod
    def new_feature_name_2(cls, **kwargs):
        double_length = NewFeatures.helper_function(log)
        return kwargs["event_attribute"] + double_length

Testing the new implementation

After implementing the new feature; including it in the list of feeed/feature_extractor.py and importing the new method accordingly, you can quickly test it by running the:

python -c "from feeed.feature_extractor import extract_features; print(extract_features('test_data/Sepsis.xes', ['new_feature_type']))"

and

python -c "from feeed.feature_extractor import extract_features; print(extract_features('test_data/Sepsis.xes', ['new_feature_name_1', 'new_feature_name_2']))"

Update documentation

When updating results and table in the documentation, please note that the features are sorted by their type and types are sorted chronologically.

Finally, consider submitting a pull request to our repository. We are looking forward to your new features! :)
