Predicting car accident severity in Northwest Ethiopia: a machine learning approach leveraging driver, environmental, and road conditions.

Scientific reports
Road traffic accidents (RTAs) in Northwest Ethiopia, a region with a fatality rate of 32.2 per 100,000 residents, pose a critical public health challenge exacerbated by infrastructural deficits and environmental hazards. This study leverages machine ...

Advanced traffic conflict analysis for safety evaluation at roundabouts under mixed traffic using extreme value theory.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Roundabout safety evaluation in non-lane-based, heterogeneous traffic conditions in low-middle-income countries brings challenges due to unavailable/unreliable crash data, thereby switching to the utilization of safety surrogates. This study employed...

Could vehicles analyze driving risks using human fuzzy semantic logic? A data-knowledge-driven new perspective.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Accurate risk identification is crucial for ensuring the safe operation of Host vehicles (HoVs) in environments shared with Neighboring vehicles (NeVs). Traditional risk identification mechanisms typically rely on large amounts of precise numerical d...

Dynamic cross-domain transfer learning for driver fatigue monitoring: multi-modal sensor fusion with adaptive real-time personalizations.

Scientific reports
Driver fatigue is one of the most common causes of road accidents, which means that there is a great need for robust and adaptive monitoring systems. Current models of fatigue detection suffer from domain-specific limitations in generalizing across d...

A framework for real-time traffic risk prediction incorporating cost-sensitive learning and dynamic thresholds.

Accident; analysis and prevention
In recent years, researchers have explored an innovative approach that leverages real vehicle trajectory data to simultaneously derive traffic state and risk level for real-time risk prediction, which is crucial for traffic safety. However, existing ...

Investigating the influence of socioeconomic factors on the relationships between road characteristics and traffic crash frequency and severity-- A hybrid structural equation modelling - artificial neural networks approach.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Traffic crashes result from complex interactions between driver, roadway, and environmental factors, which traditional methods often fail to capture. This paper investigates the influence of road, weather, and socioeconomic factors on traffic crashes...

A dense multi-pooling convolutional network for driving fatigue detection.

Scientific reports
Driver fatigue is one of the major causes of traffic accidents, particularly for drivers of large vehicles, who are more susceptible to fatigue due to prolonged driving hours and monotonous conditions during their journeys. Existing vision-based driv...

Traffic accident risk prediction based on deep learning and spatiotemporal features of vehicle trajectories.

PloS one
With the acceleration of urbanization and the increase in traffic volume, frequent traffic accidents have significantly impacted public safety and socio-economic conditions. Traditional methods for predicting traffic accidents often overlook spatiote...

Cyclist safety in the digital age: A review of advanced warning technologies.

Accident; analysis and prevention
Improving the safety of cyclists, who are considered vulnerable road users, is essential. Implementing a warning system that alerts cyclists to nearby hazards is an effective method to improve their safety. Nevertheless, the literature needs a compre...

Utilizing machine learning and geographic analysis to improve Post-crash traffic injury management and emergency response systems.

International journal of injury control and safety promotion
Traffic injuries are a major public health concern globally. This study uses machine learning (ML) and geographic analysis to analyse road traffic fatalities and improve traffic safety in Nakhon Ratchasima Province, Thailand. Data on road traffic fat...
