| Abstract
|
:
|
According to a March 2019 publication by the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA), 62% of all police-reported accidents in the United States between 2011 and 2015 could have been prevented or mitigated with the use of ve groups of collision avoidance technologies in passenger vehicles: (1) forward collision prevention, (2) lane keeping, (3) blind zone detection, (4) forward pedestrian impact, and (5) backing collision avoidance. These technologies work mostly by reducing or removing the risks involved in a lane change maneuver; yet,the Broward transportation management system does not directly address these risk. Therefore, we are proposing a Machine Learning based approach to real-time accident prediction for Broward I-95 using the C5.1 Decision Tree and the Multi-Layer Perceptron Neural Network to address them. To do this, we design a new measure of volatility, Lane Change Volatility (LCV), which measures the potential for a lane change in a segment of the highway. Our research found that LCV is an important predictor of accidents in an exit zone and when considered in tandem with current system variable, such as lighting conditions, the machine learning classiers are able to predict accidents in the exit zone with an accuracy rate of over 98%
