PPINOT for Python (ppinot4py)
Project description
What is PPINot4Py?
PPINot4Py is a Python implementation of a PPINot, used to compute process performance indicators (PPIs) for event log datasets.
- A quick example
In the following example, we use the Road Traffic Fine event log to show how ppinot4py can be used to compute some PPIs. The log is in XES format, so we use pm4py to load it into a dataframe:
import ppinot4py
from ppinot4py import model
import pandas as pd
import pm4py
from pm4py.objects.conversion.log import converter as log_converter
# Loads the event log
log = pm4py.read_xes('Road_Traffic_Fine_Management_Process.xes')
# Transforms the event log into a pandas dataframe
df = log_converter.apply(log, variant=log_converter.Variants.TO_DATA_FRAME)
# Converts the timestamp column into a timestamp
df['time:timestamp'] = pd.to_datetime(df['time:timestamp'], utc=True)
# Computes the time between activity Create Fine and activity Send Fine
tm = model.TimeMeasure('`concept:name` == "Create Fine"', '`concept:name` == "Send Fine"')
result = ppinot4py.measure_computer(tm, df)
The value of result is:
id
A1 134 days 01:00:00
A100 132 days 01:00:00
A10000 129 days 23:00:00
A10001 119 days 23:00:00
A10004 118 days 23:00:00
...
V9995 48 days 00:00:00
V9996 48 days 00:00:00
V9997 48 days 00:00:00
V9998 48 days 00:00:00
V9999 48 days 00:00:00
Name: t, Length: 150370, dtype: timedelta64[ns]
We can also execute more complex metrics. For instance, we can get the percentage of cases in which the time between Create Fine and Send Fine is less than 90 days yearly grouped as follows:
create_to_send_fine_90_days= model.DerivedMeasure("create_to_send_fine < days90",
{"create_to_send_fine": tm, "days90": pd.Timedelta(days=90)})
avg_create_to_send_fine_90_days = model.AggregatedMeasure(create_to_send_fine_90_days, 'avg')
ppinot4py.measure_computer(avg_create_to_send_fine_90_days, df, time_grouper=pd.Grouper(freq='1Y'))
The result is:

This is just a small example of what can be done with ppinot4py. Next, you can find the details on how to use it.
- Basic imports to use the library:
from ppinot4py.model import * #To define the measure model
from ppinot4py import measure_computer #To perform the calculations
Conditions
Measures need conditions to specify when to count or when to start or stop measuring time. In ppinot4py, you can specify these conditions in 2 different ways.
1.- TimeInstant Condition:
countStateCount = DataObjectState("`concept:name` == 'Close'")
countConditionCount = TimeInstantCondition(countStateCount)
countMeasureCount = CountMeasure(countConditionCount)
or simply
countMeasureExample = CountMeasure('`concept:name` == "Close"')
A TimeInstantCondition is True when the conditions changes in the event log from (!condition) -> (condition), so if our condition is "concept:name
==A", and we have this secuence: A B A A A, the result will be True, False, True, False False.
The expression language that can be used to specify the condition is the same that can be used in pandas DataFrame.query().
2.- Series Condition It is also possible to directly give the program a pandas Series with the calculated Boolean values.
Measure computer
The measure computer function receives 5 paramethers, 3 of them are optional:
def measure_computer(measure, dataframe,
id_case = 'case:concept:name',
time_column = 'time:timestamp',
time_grouper = None):
By default, id_case and time_column will have the standard name for those columns as specified by the XES standard. In case the user have custom names for these columns, they must be indicated.
Time grouper is a pandas Grouper object that indicates how to group the results of an aggregated measure based on the time each case finishes.
Measures
Count Measure:
A count measure is composed of an unique attribute "When" that can be a String or a TimeInstantCondition and refers to the condition we want to evaluate.
class CountMeasure():
def __init__(self, when):
self.when = when
With this computer we will be abble to count how many times occurs in each ID of our dataframe the condition.
Example: For a certain dataset and the following condition:
countState = DataObjectState('concept:name == "In Progress"')
countCondition = TimeInstantCondition(countState)
countMeasure = CountMeasure(countCondition)
measure_computer(countMeasure, dataframe)
We obtain:
case_concept_name
1-364285768 7.0
1-467153946 16.0
1-503573772 7.0

1-740866708 1.0
1-740866821 0.0

Data measure
A Data Measure is composed of 3 values:
- data_content_selection: Column you want to select.
- Precondition: Condition you want to apply to the dataset, can be TimeInstantCondition, Series or String.
- First: Boolean value, if is true, it will take the first filtered value of each ID, if is false, will take the last value.
class DataMeasure():
def __init__(self, data_content_selection, precondition, first):
self.data_content_selection = data_content_selection
self.precondition = precondition
self.first = first
With this measure type, you will be able to obtain a specific value of your event log for each ID.
Example: For a certain dataset and the following condition:
countState = DataObjectState("org:group == 'V5 3rd'")
precondition = TimeInstantCondition(countState)
dataMeasure = DataMeasure("lifecycle:transition", precondition, True)
measure_computer(dataMeasure, dataframe)
We obtain the value of lifecycle:transition for those cases where the precondition is met:
case_concept_name
1-364285768 Awaiting Assignment
1-692918254 In Progress
Name: lifecycle:transition, dtype: object
Time measure
A Time Measure is composed of 6 attributes:
- from_condition: The starter condition where we want to count we will reffer to it as 'A', it can be a TimeInstantCondition, a Series or a String
- to_condition: The final condition, we will refer to ir as 'B' it can be a TimeInstantCondition, a Series or a String
- time_measure_type: Linear or Cyclic. By default is Linear
- Linear: Count the time elapsed between the first A and the last B
- Cyclic: Count the time elapsed between all pairs of A and B
- single_instance_agg_function: Type of operation we want to apply to our data, it only works with Cyclic Measure. By default is SUM. There are 5 tipes of operations:
- SUM: The sum of all A to B pairs
- MIN: Minimum time value between the A to B pairs
- MAX: Maximum time value between the A to B pairs
- AVG: The average time between all A to B pairs
- GROUPBY: Raw grouped dataframe with no operation applied
- first_to: Only works with Linear measure and it indicates if we want to take the first occurrence of 'B' condition or the last. By default is False
- precondition: Condition applied before the calculation of A and B.
class TimeMeasure():
def __init__(self, from_condition, to_condition,
time_measure_type = 'Linear', single_instance_agg_function = 'SUM',
first_to = 'False', precondition = ''):
self.from_condition = from_condition
self.to_condition = to_condition
self.time_measure_type = time_measure_type
self.single_instance_agg_function = single_instance_agg_function
self.precondition = precondition
self.first_to = first_to
In this Linear example, we want to calculate how much time has passed between 'In progress' and the last 'Closed'
state_A = DataObjectState('lifecycle:transition == "In Progress"')
condition_A = TimeInstantCondition(state_A)
state_B = DataObjectState('lifecycle:transition == "Closed"')
condition_B = TimeInstantCondition(state_B)
time_measure_linear = TimeMeasure(condition_A, condition_B)
measure_computer(time_measure_linear, dataframe)

In this Cyclic example, we want to calculate the average time of all pairs 'In Progress' - 'Awaiting Assignment' along all Ids:
state_A = DataObjectState.DataObjectState('lifecycle:transition == "In Progress"')
condition_A = TimeInstantCondition(state_A)
to_state_C = DataObjectState('lifecycle:transition == "Awaiting Assignment"')
condition_C = TimeInstantCondition(to_state_C)
time_measure_cyclic = TimeMeasure(condition_A, condition_C, 'CYCLIC', 'AVG')

Aggregated measure
An Aggregated Measure is composed of:
- base_measure: Can be any kind of the previous measures (Time, Count or Data)
- single_instance_agg_function: Operation we want to apply to data of each Time aggrupation
- SUM: Sum of all values
- MIN: Minimum value
- MAX: Maximum value
- AVG: Average of all values
- GROUPBY: Raw grouped dataframe with no operation applied
- data_grouper: List of Measures to group by the base measure.
- filter_to_apply: Filter to apply to the base_measure, can be TimeInstantCondition, Series or String
class AggregatedMeasure():
def __init__(self, base_measure, single_instance_agg_function, data_grouper, filter_to_apply):
self.base_measure = base_measure
self.filter_to_apply = filter_to_apply
self.single_instance_agg_function = single_instance_agg_function
self.data_grouper = data_grouper
In this Computer, we take the result of a previous and group it by time. This time is take as the last TimeStamp of each ID.
We will take a Linear condition between 'In Progress' and 'Closed' and sum the values each 60 seconds
import pandas as pd
state_A = DataObjectState('lifecycle:transition == "In Progress"')
condition_A = TimeInstantCondition(state_A)
state_B = DataObjectState('lifecycle:transition == "Closed"')
condition_B = TimeInstantCondition(state_B)
time_measure = TimeMeasure(condition_A, condition_B)
time_grouper_60s = pd.Grouper(freq='60s')
aggregated_measure = AggregatedMeasure(time_measure, 'SUM')
measure_computer(aggregated_measure, dataframe, time_grouper=time_grouper_60s)

Derived measure
A Derived Measure is composed of 2 attributes:
- function_expression: Function that we want to apply to some measures. Can be arithmetical or boolean
- Example: (A + B) / C where A,B and C are the result of a previous computer
- measure_map: A dictionary where the Key values are the name we want to assign to that measure, and the values the measure
class DerivedMeasure():
def __init__(self, function_expression, measure_map):
self.function_expression = function_expression
self.measure_map = measure_map
With this Computer, we will be able to apply arithmetical of boolean functions to a group of Computer results.
We define 3 Linear Measures, create the dictionary and then we define the function
time_measure_A = TimeMeasure(condition_A, condition_B)
time_measure_B = TimeMeasure(condition_B, condition_A)
time_measure_C = TimeMeasure(condition_A, condition_C)
measure_dictionary =
{'A': time_measure_A, 'B': time_measure_B, 'C': time_measure_C}
derived_measure = DerivedMeasure('(A + B) / C', measure_dictionary)
measure_computer(derived_measure, dataframe)

1-740865969 0 days 00:53:39.253012
Length: 4904, dtype: timedelta64[ns]
One can also use derived measures to define boolean expressions. For instance, we can define a boolean derived measure that returns true when the number of Send Fine activities in a case is greater or equal than 1.
has_send_fine = model.DerivedMeasure('count_send_fine >= 1',
{"count_send_fine": model.CountMeasure('`concept:name` == "Send Fine"')})
ppinot4py.measure_computer(has_send_fine, df)
If the data type used in the comparison is an object, then it has to be added as a parameter in the expression and in the measure map. For instance, in the following example, we define days90 with the value pd.Timedelta(days=90):
create_fine_to_send_fine = model.TimeMeasure('`concept:name` == "Create Fine"', '`concept:name` == "Send Fine"')
create_to_send_fine_90_days= model.DerivedMeasure("create_to_send_fine < days90",
{"create_to_send_fine": create_fine_to_send_fine, "days90": pd.Timedelta(days=90)})
ppinot4py.measure_computer(avg_create_to_send_fine_90_days, df, time_grouper=pd.Grouper(freq='1Y'))
