description Dynamic discrete event systems (DDES) are systems that evolve from the asynchronous occurrence of discrete events. Their versatility has become a critical modeling tool in different applications. Finding models that define the behavior of DES is a topic that has been addressed from different approaches, depending on the type of system to be modeled and the model's objective. This article focuses on the identification of timed models for stochastic discrete event systems. The identified model includes both observable and unobservable behavior. The objective of the method is achieved through the following steps: • Identifying the sequences of events observed at different time instances during the closed-loop operation of the system (observed language), • Inferring the stochastic behavior of time between events and modeling the observable behavior as a stochastic timed Interpreted Petri Net (st-IPN), • and finally, inferring the non-observable behavior using the language projection operation between the observed language and the language generated by the st-IPN.This method has novel aspects because it uses timed events, can be applied to systems with a low number of sensors and can infer unobservable behavior for any sequence of events.
