Investigating crash injury severity at unsignalized intersections in Heilongjiang Province, China
Journal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online), 2014 Many studies suggest that more crashes occur due to mixed traffic flow at unsignalized intersections. However, very little is known about the injury severity of these crashes.

Application of hybrid support vector Machine models in analysis of work zone crash injury severity
Transportation Research Interdisciplinary Perspectives, 2023 Crash severity models are often used to analyze the adverse effects of highway work zones on traffic safety. In this study we evaluated application of hybrid support vector machine (SVM) and hyperparameter optimization models for improved accuracy of ...

Modeling Crashes Severity Using Ensemble Techniques
The Eurasia Proceedings of Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics, 2023 Traffic crashes are modelled using different techniques and contributing factors. In this work, several ensemble machine learning algorithms were used to model crash severity at urban roundabouts using data from 15 roundabouts in Jordan. The original dataset covers four years, from 2017 to 2021.

Crash Severity Pattern of Motorcycle Crashes in Developing Country Context
, 2021 Despite paying special attention to the motorcycle-involved crashes in the safety research, little is known about their pattern and impacts in developing countries. The widespread adoption of motorcycles in such regions in tandem with the vulnerability of motorcyclists exacerbates the likelihood of severe crashes. The main objective of this paper is to
