Predicting Accident Severity: An Analysis of Factors Affecting Accident Severity Using Random Forest Model

International Journal on Cybernetics & Informatics, 2023
Road accidents have significant economic and societal costs, with a small number of severe accidents accounting for a large portion of these costs. Predicting accident severity can help in the proactive approach to road safety by identifying potential unsafe road conditions and taking well-informed actions to reduce the number of severe accidents. This
