…loops Split Miner discovers BPMN models where, when an activity has a self-loop, it denotes it through an attribute in the '<task>' element, rather than an explicit XOR gateway structure. The post-processing stage surrounds all tasks with such attribute with an XOR-split/XOR-join structure that models a self-loop of that activity.
Split Miner 1 (SM1) uses all events written in the XES file to form the sequence of activities corresponding to each case. If running SM1 with a XES event log storing both lifecycles (Start and End), SM1 interprets it as two events of the same activity, and thus discovers a self-loop for all of them. Simod now generates two XES, one with two events per activity instance (start and end), and another one with only one (end). Still an issue, not SM1 or SM2 order the events of a trace. In the case of SM2, they are written always in pairs (A_s-A_e then B_s-B_e), when two activities are in parallel, SM2 reads the written order (A_s-A_e-B_s-B_e) and doesn't interpret real chronological order (A_s-B_s-A_e-B_e). TODO: either change XES writer to write events individually in order, or change SM2 to sort before using.

When Split Miner (both versions) discovers a BPMN model with tasks with self-loops, it describes it through a tag within the task. Added an automated translation of the model to explicitly model such self-loops with an XOR-split/XOR-join structure.
