Clustering and classification approaches have been commonly applied in reducing the heterogeneity in accident data. As part of an effort to understand the features of the heterogeneity, this study assessed accident data from the perspective of accident occurrences. Using the rule-based classification method, rough set theory, rules were derived which consisted of indispensable factors to certai...

The objective of this paper is to address the safety concerns that parents have when their child riding a two-wheeler. To achieve this, topic includes two units, Helmet Unit (HU) and Motorbike (MU), which communicate with each other via radio frequency. HU equipped sensors measure rider's pulse rate, alcohol content in breath, intensity vibration. rate sensor detects whether rider wearing helme...

In this study, a two-state Markov switching count-data model is proposed as an alternative to zero-inflated models to account for the preponderance of zeros sometimes observed in transportation count data, such as the number of accidents occurring on a roadway segment over some period of time. For this accident-frequency case, zero-inflated models assume the existence of two states: one of the ...

nowadays, in addition to implement the quality of management systems and environment management and due to the effects of safety and health issues on working processes, the organizations have also sought to acquire health and safety management systems. this descriptive–analytic and past reviewing study has been implemented based on five years (from 2006 to 2010) recorded documents and statistic...
