作者：

Highlights：

• A set of data imperfection patterns for event logs is introduced.

• The data imperfection patterns enable systematic approach to data cleaning.

• The usefulness of the patterns is demonstrated in a process mining case study.

• The patterns have been evaluated with process mining experts and practitioners.
