| dc.description.abstract | Road accidents with high severities are a major concern worldwide, imposing serious problems to the socio-economic development. Several techniques exist to analyse road traffic accidents to improve road safety performance. Machine learning and data mining which are novel approaches are proposed in this study to predict accident severity. Support Vector Machine (SVM), Gradient Boosting (GB), Logistic Regression (LR), Random Forest (RF) and Naïve Bayes (NB) were applied to perform effective data analysis for informed decisions using Python programming language. The gradient boosting outperformed all the other models in predicting the severity outcomes, yielding an overall accuracy of 83.2% and an AUC of 83.9% | en_US |
