Abstract
A traffic crash is becoming one of the major factors that leads to unexpected death in the world. Short window traffic crash prediction in the near future is becoming more pragmatic with the advancements in the fields of artificial intelligence and traffic sensor technology. Short window traffic prediction can monitor traffic in real time, identify unsafe traffic dynamics, and implement suitable interventions for traffic conflicts. Crash prediction being an important component of intelligent traffic systems, it plays a crucial role in the development of proactive road safety management systems. Some near future crash prediction models were put forward in recent years; further improvements need to be implemented for actual applications. This paper utilizes traffic accident data from the study Freeway in China to build a time series-based count data model for daily crash prediction. Lane traffic flow, weather information, vehicle speed, and truck to car ratio were extracted from the deployment of non-intrusive detection systems with support of the Bridge Management Administration study and were input into the model as independent variables. Different types of prediction models in machine learning and time series forecasting methods such as boosting, ARIMA, time-series count data model, etc. are compared within the paper. Results show that integrating time series with a count data model can capture traffic accident features and account for the temporal structure for variable serial correlation. A prediction error of 0.7 was achieved according to Root Mean Squared Deviation.
