Enhancing trauma registries by integrating traffic records and geospatial analysis to improve bicyclist safety

Using Systems Analysis to Improve Traffic Safety

Despite the efforts of driver’s training and other safety programs to make U.S. highways and roads safe, thousands of U.S. citizens are killed each year in traffic accidents that could have been prevented. A similar problem exists in the U.S. Army where several hundred soldiers have been killed in the last decade in preventable combat vehicle accidents while on operational deployments around th...

critical thinking ability has an important role in education. accordingly, scholars around the world are searching for new ways for teaching and improving students critical thinking ability. in line with the studies in efl contexts supporting the positive relationship between critical thinking and writing performances, this study investigated the differential effects of halverson’s critical thi...

Data Mining to Improve Traffic Safety

The ever increasing size of datasets used for data mining and machine learning applications has placed a renewed emphasis on algorithm performance and processing strategies. This research addresses algorithms for ranking variables in a dataset, as well as for ranking values of a specific variable. We propose two new techniques, called Max Gain (MG) and Sum Max Gain Ratio (SMGR), which are well-...
