A Deep Dive into the System Knowledge Graphs

by Dirk Fahland, Technical University of Eindhoven (Tu/E)

Preparing data for automated learning of digital twins in circular processes through process mining is challenging:

  • Source system data is not in right structure, incomplete, and contains errors such as wrongly recorded time-stamps.

  • Circular processes have the same object re-enter the process it previously finished. For example a medical kit undergoing sterilization after usage in a hospital. your data has to keep track of each execution of the sterilization process and of the kit over its repeated use and sterilization.

  • Digital twins aimed at optimization need to keep track of process-level control-policies you can optimize. The data has to be ready for this - for example to track how all the medical kits moving from station to station maintain or change their priorities - overtaking others for faster process completion.

This video introduces the System Knowledge Graph and walks you through the fully automated steps of

  • data integration

  • enrichment with domain knowledge using inference rules

  • identification and resolution of data quality problems

  • modeling distinct process executions and cases in circular processes

  • modeling system-level behavior of kits for tracking prioritization

and the Auto-Twin Orchestrator that automates the process of learning and maintaining digital twins.

Our technology to build System Knowledge Graphs is available as open-source project https://github.com/AutotwinEU/skg_manager

It is powered by the open-source library PromG which enables process mining using knowledge graphs https://github.com/promg-dev
