Filters cases based on the precedence relations between two sets of activities, where both antecendent and consequent have to be executed by the same resource.

Usage

filter_precedence_resource(
  log,
  antecedents,
  consequents,
  precedence_type = c("directly_follows", "eventually_follows"),
  filter_method = c("all", "one_of", "none"),
  reverse = FALSE,
  eventlog = deprecated()
)

# S3 method for eventlog
filter_precedence_resource(
  log,
  antecedents,
  consequents,
  precedence_type = c("directly_follows", "eventually_follows"),
  filter_method = c("all", "one_of", "none"),
  reverse = FALSE,
  eventlog = deprecated()
)

# S3 method for activitylog
filter_precedence_resource(
  log,
  antecedents,
  consequents,
  precedence_type = c("directly_follows", "eventually_follows"),
  filter_method = c("all", "one_of", "none"),
  reverse = FALSE,
  eventlog = deprecated()
)

# S3 method for grouped_log
filter_precedence_resource(
  log,
  antecedents,
  consequents,
  precedence_type = c("directly_follows", "eventually_follows"),
  filter_method = c("all", "one_of", "none"),
  reverse = FALSE,
  eventlog = deprecated()
)

Arguments

log

log: Object of class log or derivatives (grouped_log, eventlog, activitylog, etc.).

antecedents, consequents

character vector: The set of antecendent and consequent activities. Both are character vectors containing at least one activity identifier. All pairs of antecedents and consequents are turned into seperate precedence rules.

precedence_type

character (default "directly_follows"): When "directly_follows", the consequent activity should happen immediately after the antecedent activities.
When "eventually_follows", other events are allowed to happen in between.

filter_method

character (default "all"): When "all", only cases where all the relations are valid are preserved.
When "one_of", all the cases where at least one of the conditions hold, are preserved.
When "none", none of the relations are allowed.

reverse

logical (default FALSE): Indicating whether the selection should be reversed.

eventlog

[Deprecated]; please use log instead.

Value

When given an object of type log, it will return a filtered log. When given an object of type grouped_log, the filter will be applied in a stratified way (i.e. each separately for each group). The returned log will be grouped on the same variables as the original log.

Methods (by class)

  • filter_precedence_resource(eventlog): Filters cases for an eventlog.

  • filter_precedence_resource(activitylog): Filters cases for an activitylog.

  • filter_precedence_resource(grouped_log): Filters cases for a grouped_log.
