PMAx让非技术人员用自然语言获取精准流程分析结果。

PMAx: An Agentic Framework for AI-Driven Process Mining

  • 构建多智能体系统,本地运行算法生成准确流程模型
  • 通过分步计算与解释,避免大模型幻觉与隐私泄露
  • 适合无技术背景的业务人员快速获取可信流程洞察

流程挖掘能为组织流程提供深刻洞察,但通常需掌握专业查询语言和数据科学工具。大型语言模型(LLMs)有望通过自然语言交互降低使用门槛。然而,直接将原始事件日志交由LLM处理存在根本性挑战:LLM难以进行确定性推理,可能产生虚假指标;同时将敏感日志发送至外部AI服务也引发严重数据隐私问题。为此,我们提出PMAx——一个自主代理框架,作为虚拟流程分析师。PMAx不依赖LLM生成流程模型或计算结果,而是采用隐私保护的多智能体架构:工程师代理分析事件日志元数据,自动生成本地脚本,运行成熟的流程挖掘算法,精确计算指标并生成流程模型、汇总表及可视化图;分析师代理则解读这些成果,生成完整报告。通过分离计算与解释,并在本地执行分析,PMAx确保数学准确性与数据隐私,使非技术用户可将高层业务问题转化为可靠流程洞察。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Process mining provides powerful insights into organizational workflows, but extracting these insights typically requires expertise in specialized query languages and data science tools. Large Language Models (LLMs) offer the potential to democratize process mining by enabling business users to interact with process data through natural language. However, using LLMs as direct analytical engines over raw event logs introduces fundamental challenges: LLMs struggle with deterministic reasoning and may hallucinate metrics, while sending large, sensitive logs to external AI services raises serious data-privacy concerns. To address these limitations, we present PMAx, an autonomous agentic framework that functions as a virtual process analyst. Rather than relying on LLMs to generate process models or compute analytical results, PMAx employs a privacy-preserving multi-agent architecture. An Engineer agent analyzes event-log metadata and autonomously generates local scripts to run established process mining algorithms, compute exact metrics, and produce artifacts such as process models, summary tables, and visualizations. An Analyst agent then interprets these insights and artifacts to compile comprehensive reports. By separating computation from interpretation and executing analysis locally, PMAx ensures mathematical accuracy and data privacy while enabling non-technical users to transform high-level business questions into reliable process insights.
