This study addresses the partial-to-complete geometry reconstruction of deformable objects (DOs) from point-cloud observations toward precise DO manipulation. Recent DO reconstruction approaches often adopt implicit neural representations (INRs) to model continuous surfaces as well as capture structural variability. However, these methods typically rely on object-specific shape priors that improve training stability and limit generalization. To figure it out, we introduce ParCo-SDF, a two-stage partial-to-complete signed distance field (SDF) reconstruction framework consisting of temporal geometry encoding followed by FiLM-conditioned SDF prediction. The temporal encoder captures structural similarity across DO sequence, enabling prior-free stable training. FiLM-based conditioning preserves reconstruction expressivity while reducing network complexity. We evaluate the proposed method against a state-of-the-art DO surface reconstruction baseline on a rubber band manipulation dataset, demonstrating robust and high-fidelity reconstruction under severe occlusions.

Information systems support the execution of business processes. The event logs of these executions generally contain sensitive information about customers, patients, and employees. The corresponding privacy challenges can be addressed by anonymizing the event logs while still retaining utility for process discovery. However, trading off utility and privacy is difficult: the higher the complexity of event log, the higher the loss of utility by anonymization. In this work, we propose a pipeline that combines anonymization and event data partitioning, where event abstraction is utilized for partitioning. By leveraging event abstraction, event logs can be segmented into multiple parts, allowing each sub-log to be anonymized separately. This pipeline preserves privacy while mitigating the loss of utility. To validate our approach, we study the impact of event partitioning on two anonymization techniques using three real-world event logs and two process discovery techniques. Our results demonstrate that event partitioning can bring improvements in process discovery utility for directly-follows-based anonymization techniques.

Predictive business process monitoring aims at providing predictions about running instances by analyzing logs of completed cases in a business process. Recently, a lot of research focuses on increasing productivity and efficiency in a business process by forecasting potential problems during its executions. However, most of the studies lack suggesting concrete actions to improve the process. They leave it up to the subjective judgment of a user. In this paper, we propose a novel method to connect the results from predictive business process monitoring to actual business process improvements. More in detail, we optimize the resource allocation in a non-clairvoyant online environment, where we have limited information required for scheduling, by exploiting the predictions. The proposed method integrates the offline prediction model construction that predicts the processing time and the next activity of an ongoing instance using Bayesian Neural Networks (BNNs) with the online resource allocation that is extended from the minimum cost and maximum flow algorithm. To validate the proposed method, we performed experiments using an artificial event log and a real-life event log from a global financial organization.
