Describes how the Process Execution Engine processes a Decision activity.
The Process Execution Engine records your decisions and performs a statistical analysis to
be able to provide suggestions for future decisions. It uses an algorithm based on
Support Vector Machines (SVMs) methods.
The Decision activity shows you a set of probability percentages. These percentages show you which action
users choose, when presented with similar data. Using these percentages you can then make a decision based
on the decisions made by previous users.
Note:
To train the Process Engine you have to provide it a set of consistent data that support the decisions
you make. If you make wide fluctuations in the responses during the training period, then
the Engine makes inconsistent recommendations.
Note: The Process Engine analyses the recorded decisions at periodic intervals as part of the
Engine Disposer service. By default the Engine Disposer runs every two days. If you run a decision
activity before the Engine Disposer service run, then the Engine does not provide any suggestions.
