She is a senior Research Scientist at Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK), Trento, Italy, where she heads the Process & Data Intelligence (PDI) research unit and is responsible of the scientific ordination of the new centre of digital Health & Well Being. Her scientific work in the areas of Semantic Web, Knowledge Engineering and Representation, Multi-Agent Systems and Process Mining is internationally well known and recognised, and she has made significant scientific contributions in the areas of: formal semantics for contextual reasoning and multi-context logics; formal frameworks for the specification of deliberative resource bounded agents; ontology mappings and integration; collaborative modeling platforms, business process modelling, and predictive business process monitoring. She has been involved in a number of international research projects, among which the FP7 Organic.Lingua and SO-PC-Pro European projects and the current network of Excellence Humane-AINet, as well as industrial projects in collaboration with companies in the Trentino area.

Predictive process monitoring aims at predicting the future of an ongoing process execution by learning from past historical business process executions. Different, often Machine Learning based, approaches have been proposed in the literature in order to provide predictions on the outcome, the remaining time, the required resources as well as the remaining activities of an ongoing execution, by leveraging information related to the control flow, the data flow, or even unstructured text contained in event logs, recording information about process executions. Together with the impressive growth of this young filed several challenges remain, ofter related to the multi-perspective nature of Business Process execution data, such as the inclusion of a-priori knowledge in a prediction, the temporal relationship between different features, the explainability of the prediction and the predictive model for this type of data, and even more crucially the ability to provide prescriptive or actionable predictions - or even better recommendations. In this talk I will outline the work that was carried out in the PDI group in the last 5 years, as well as ongoing future research directions related to the challenges above.
