About this paper

Nijat Mehdiyev, Maxim Majlatow, Peter Fettke

A systematic literature review comprehensively maps existing research on interpretable and explainable machine learning methods in predictive process monitoring, categorizing methodologies, application contexts, and evaluation practices. The work identifies prevalent trends and critical gaps in integrating explainable AI within process analytics.

Key insights

  • Research in XAI for PPM is a rapidly growing field, evidenced by a significant increase in publications, particularly since 2020.
  • A clear distinction exists between intrinsically interpretable (white-box) models, often simpler, and complex black-box models that rely on post-hoc explanation techniques.
  • Most studies lack formal evaluation of their XAI methods, frequently prioritizing model accuracy over thorough assessment of explanation quality or user understanding, indicating a critical gap in research practices.
