Predicting Work Zone Collision Probabilities via Clustering: Application in Optimal Deployment of Highway Response Teams
This paper proposes a clustering approach to predict the probability of a collision occurring in the proximity of planned road maintenance operations (i.e., work zones). The proposed method is applied … [Read more...] about Predicting Work Zone Collision Probabilities via Clustering: Application in Optimal Deployment of Highway Response Teams
