Abstract

Process mining methods often analyze processes in terms of the individual end-to-end process runs. Process behavior, however, may materialize as a general state of many involved process components, which can not be captured by looking at the individual process instances. A more holistic state of the process can be determined by looking at the events that occur close in time and share common process capacities. In this work, we conceptualize such behavior using high-level events and propose a new framework for detecting and logging such high-level events. The output of our method is a new high-level event log, which collects all generated high-level events together with the newly assigned event attributes: activity, case, and timestamp. Existing process mining techniques can then be applied on the produced high-level event log to obtain further insights. Experiments on both simulated and real-life event data show that our method is able to automatically discover how system-level patterns such as high traffic and workload emerge, propagate and dissolve throughout the process.

A Functional Pilot for Certified Freshness-Aware Semantic--Spatial Range Retrieval

Geographic applications need every object inside a radius that satisfies a semantic threshold, yet embedding indexes return approximate top-ranked lists and may omit qualifying records silently. We present FRESH-GEORANGE, a semantic- spatial range design that separates source-watermark freshness from optional record age. Geographic cells and semantic mi- croblocks provide admissible pruning bounds; a graph proposes verification order but supplies no correctness evidence. Exact mode scans every nonprunable block and the delta overlay. Certified mode may stop early and reports a deterministic query- specific recall lower bound from verified answers and unresolved records. A reproducible CPU pilot uses 2,500 real OpenFlights airport records, a 2,000-record base, and 740 simulated insert, delete, and text-revision events; it evaluates 180 unique queries over five seeds. Exact mode achieved 100.00% set recall on every query. The 95-percent mode achieved 99.91% empirical mean recall with a 99.41% reported mean certificate and no observed bound violation. However, its 7.24 ms median latency was 5.85 times the 1.24 ms spatial-first exact baseline, and full-history delta replay became slower than rebuilding at larger batches. The prototype therefore validates the completeness mechanism, not performance superiority or production freshness. Submission- scale evaluation requires real map diffs, official recent baselines, and truly incremental versioned maintenance.

AkasicMEM: Governed Enterprise Memory for Agents

Agent memory enables enterprise agents to retain knowledge acquired during work and reuse it across tasks and agents, turning execution experience into persistent organizational knowledge. Realizing this potential requires both source--memory integration, through which enterprise sources and accumulated memory can be utilized together, and memory governance, through which shared memory remains subject to organizational policies throughout its lifecycle. These requirements interact when information from enterprise sources persists in memory. As this information is repeatedly derived and reused under changing principals and policies, source restrictions may be bypassed, resulting in information leakage. Preventing such leakage requires authorization continuity, under which source restrictions remain effective throughout source-to-memory and memory-to-memory derivation and reuse. Existing approaches address these concerns individually, but do not treat source--memory integration, memory governance, and authorization continuity as combined core design targets across the memory lifecycle. We define Governed Enterprise Memory as agent memory designed around this combined scope and present AkasicMEM as its realization. AkasicMEM realizes authorization continuity through transitive lineage, policy composition during memory formation, and policy re-evaluation during retrieval. It is built on GraphAI's AkasicDB, a unified vector--graph--relational database whose storage and execution substrate enables the underlying operations of these mechanisms to be jointly optimized and executed.

VectorMaton: Efficient Vector Search with Pattern Constraints via an Enhanced Suffix Automaton

Approximate nearest neighbor search (ANNS) has become a cornerstone in modern vector database systems. Given a query vector, ANNS retrieves the closest vectors from a set of base vectors. In real-world applications, vectors are often accompanied by additional information, such as sequences or structured attributes, motivating the need for fine-grained vector search with constraints on this auxiliary data. Existing methods support attribute-based filtering or range-based filtering on categorical and numerical attributes, but they do not support pattern predicates over sequence attributes. In relational databases, predicates such as LIKE and CONTAINS are fundamental operators for filtering records based on substring patterns. As vector databases increasingly adopt SQL-style query interfaces, enabling pattern predicates over sequence attributes (e.g., texts and biological sequences) alongside vector similarity search becomes essential. In this paper, we formulate a novel problem: given a set of vectors each associated with a sequence, retrieve the nearest vectors whose sequences contain a given query pattern. To address this challenge, we propose VectorMaton, an automaton-based index that integrates pattern filtering with efficient vector search, while maintaining an index size comparable to the dataset size. Extensive experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that VectorMaton consistently outperforms all baselines, achieving up to 10x higher query throughput at the same accuracy and up to 18x reduction in index size.
