Performance filters

Performance filters

Filter by absolute interval

filter_throughput_time(log, interval = c(5,10))

Filter by absolute interval

filter_throughput_time(log, interval = c(5,10))

Filter by Relative Percentage

filter_throughput_time(log, percentage = 0.5)

Adjusting filter configurations

Negate the filter

Cases shorter than 5 days, or longer than 10 days

filter_throughput_time(log, interval = c(5,10), units = "days", reverse =TRUE)

The 50% longest cases

filter_throughput_time(log, percentage = 0.5, reverse = TRUE)

Use half-open intervals

Select cases with throughput time longer than 5 days.

filter_throughput_time(log, interval = c(5,NA), units = "days")

Control-flow filters

Activity presence/absence
Precedence requirements
Start and/or End points
Frequency of the trace

Time filters

Select cases that

started in a specific time window
ended in a specific time window
are contained in a specific time window
intersect, i.e. had at least on activity in a specific time window

Let's practice!
