Abstract: Traffic accidents can be studied to mitigate the risk of further events. Recent advances in machine learning have provided an alternative way to study data associated with traffic accidents. New models achieve good generalization and high predictive power over imbalanced data. In this research, we study neural network-based models on data related to traffic accidents. We begin analyzing relative feature colinearity and unsupervised dimensionality reduction through autoencoders, followed by a dense network. The features are related to traffic accident data and the target is to classify accident severity. Our experiments show cross-validated results of up to 92% accuracy when classifying accident severity using the proposed deep neural network.

Graph Neural Networks for Road Safety Modeling: Datasets and Evaluations for Accident Analysis [21.02297148118655]
This paper constructs a large-scale dataset of traffic accident records from official reports of various states in the US. Using this new dataset, we evaluate existing deep-learning methods for predicting the occurrence of accidents on road networks. Our main finding is that graph neural networks such as GraphSAGE can accurately predict the number of accidents on roads with less than 22% mean absolute error.

TAP: A Comprehensive Data Repository for Traffic Accident Prediction in Road Networks [36.975060335456035]
Existing machine learning approaches tend to focus on predicting traffic accidents in isolation. To incorporate graph structure information, Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) can be naturally applied. Applying GNNs to the accident prediction problem faces challenges due to the lack of suitable graph-structured traffic accident datasets.
