متن کاملA multivariate tobit analysis of highway accident-injury-severity rates.
Relatively recent research has illustrated the potential that tobit regression has in studying factors that affect vehicle accident rates (accidents per distance traveled) on specific roadway segments. Tobit regression has been used because accident rates on specific roadway segments are continuous data that are left-censored at zero (they are censored because accidents may not be observed on a...
متن کاملA Tobit Model of Vehicle Accident Rates
In recent years, there has been an abundance of research that has used Poisson models and its variants (negative binomial and zero-inflated models) to improve our understanding of the factors that affect accident frequencies on roadway segments. This study explores the application of an alternate method, tobit regression, by viewing vehicle accident rates directly (instead of frequencies) as a ...
متن کاملAnalysis of traffic accident injury severity on Spanish rural highways using Bayesian networks.
Several different factors contribute to injury severity in traffic accidents, such as driver characteristics, highway characteristics, vehicle characteristics, accidents characteristics, and atmospheric factors. This paper shows the possibility of using Bayesian Networks (BNs) to classify traffic accidents according to their injury severity. BNs are capable of making predictions without the nee...
متن کاملWillingness to Pay Among Swedish Households to Avoid Power Outages A Random Parameter Tobit Model Approach
ELFORSK iv Foreword The development of liberalized electricity markets around the world is, partly, an experiment of applied market theory with uncertain outcome. For this new paradigm to benefit customers thru efficient supply of electricity, we need increased and better knowledge on how competitive electricity markets really work and how to solve the problems that might occur. One crucial iss...
