📝 Abstract
Complete suffix prediction is challenging in sequential decision settings, where the same prefix can remain compatible with several plausible suffixes. We propose a graphbased metric-learning framework that reformulates complete suffix prediction as latent retrieval over process graphs. Prefixes and suffixes are represented as directed attributed graphs and encoded by edge-conditioned graph neural networks, allowing event-level activities and transition-level durations to be modelled jointly. Prefix representations are projected into the latent suffix space through a predictor trained with a joint reconstruction and contrastive objective strengthened using process-aware hard negatives. To stabilise the learned retrieval geometry, spectral normalisation, and retrieval robustness, spectral normalisation is applied to enforce a Lipschitz constraint on both encoders and predictor. Experiments on two real-life process datasets demonstrate that the proposed framework achieves the best overall results across nearly all evaluated criteria. It improves semantic suffix accuracy measured by normalized Damerau-Levenshtein distance, yields strong retrieval quality through Recall@1, Recall@5, and MRR@5, and maintains temporal plausibility according to Mean Absolute Error. These results show that graph-based latent retrieval is an effective alternative to sequential suffix prediction for recommendation-oriented process monitoring under structural and KPI-related constraints.
