A Freeway Crash Involvement Analysis Model based on Real-Time and Historical Traffic BigData

Vehicle accidents, including automobile accidents and traffic fatalities threat social and public health. With rapid development of road traffic status monitoring and measuring technologies, it is possible to observe accident patterns for preventing them recently. However as the traffic data collected by human beings have reached an incredible level, it become a big challenge to analysis such a huge amount of data. Inspired by many previous findings, we proposed a section traffic state based crash involvement rate analysis model which considering both real-time and historical traffic data. Our experimental result show that our approach 1) is possible for analyzing traffic data in real-time, 2) is sufficient for distributed computing environment, 3) works efficiently for huge number of traffic events.
