Hi, I'm Lukas Liss
I'm a PhD. student at the RWTH Aachen University in Germany. I specialize in object-centric process mining where we use data science to improve real world processes.

Selected Research Papers
Highlights from my recent research contributions across object-centric process mining and data science.
Object-Centric Alignments
Lukas Liss, Jan Niklas Adams, Wil M. P. van der Aalst
International Conference on Conceptual Modeling (ER) • 2023
This paper presents a novel approach to align object-centric event data with process models, enabling process owners to investigate the conformance of their processes with desired behavior.
Read PaperTOTeM: Temporal Object Type Model for Object-Centric Process Mining
Lukas Liss, Jan Niklas Adams, Wil M. P. van der Aalst
International Conference on Business Process Management (BPM-Forum) • 2023
The Temporal Object Type Model (TOTeM), can be discovered from object-centric event logs and describes which objects exist before, during, or parallel to objects form other object types within a process.
Read PaperObject-Centric Causal Nets
Lukas Liss, Caspar Mensing, Wil M. P. van der Aalst
International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering (CAiSE) • 2025
A process discovery algorithm to mine object-centric causal nets from event data, which allows for the representation of complex relationships between objects in a process.

A few selected projects that could be of interest if you want to learn more about object-centric process mining or experiment with the algorithms yourself.
Free Online Course
Together with Prof. Wil van der Aalst, I created a free online course on object-centric process mining, covering the latest research, practical applications, and hands-on tutorials.
Software Campus: TOTeM Tool
Within a project funded by Software Campus, I develop a tool for discovering Temporal Object Type Models (TOTeM) from object-centric event logs. This is currently in development...
