The statistical analysis of crash-frequency data: A review and assessment of methodological alternatives
Dominique Lord,Fred L. Mannering +1 more
TL;DR: In the absence of detailed driving data that would help improve the identification of cause and effect relationships with individual vehicle crashes, most researchers have addressed this problem by framing it in terms of understanding the factors that affect the frequency of crashes -the number of crashes occurring in some geographical space (usually a roadway segment or intersection) over some specified time period as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analytic methods in accident research: Methodological frontier and future directions
TL;DR: A review of the evolution of methodological applications and available data in highway-accident research can be found in this article, where fruitful directions for future methodological developments are identified and the role that new data sources will play in defining these directions is discussed.

Mixed logit model-based driver injury severity investigations in single- and multi-vehicle crashes on rural two-lane highways
TL;DR: A better understanding of similarities and differences in significant contributing factors and their impacts on driver injury severities between SV and MV crashes on rural two-lane highways is provided and cost-effective solutions or appropriate injury prevention strategies are developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Examining Driver Injury Severity Outcomes in Rural Non-Interstate Roadway Crashes Using a Hierarchical Ordered Logit Model
TL;DR: Variables regarding crash features, environment conditions, and driver and vehicle characteristics are found to have significant influence on the predictions of driver injury severities in rural non-interstate crashes.

New geometric design consistency model based on operating speed profiles for road safety evaluation
Francisco Javier Camacho-Torregrosa,Ana María Pérez-Zuriaga,J. Manuel Campoy-Ungría,Alfredo García-García +3 more
TL;DR: A new methodology to evaluate road safety in both the design and redesign stages of two-lane rural highways is presented, based on the analysis of road geometric design consistency, a value which will be a surrogate measure of the safety level of the two- lane rural road segment.

Generalized Linear Models
Peter McCullagh,John A. Nelder +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a generalization of the analysis of variance is given for these models using log- likelihoods, illustrated by examples relating to four distributions; the Normal, Binomial (probit analysis, etc.), Poisson (contingency tables), and gamma (variance components).

Mathematical Contributions to the Theory of Evolution. III. Regression, Heredity, and Panmixia
TL;DR: A considerable portion of the present memoir is devoted to the expansion and fuller development of Galton's ideas, particularly their application to the problem of bi-parental inheritance as mentioned in this paper.

Modeling Traffic Accident Occurrence and Involvement
Mohamed Abdel-Aty,A E Radwan +1 more
TL;DR: The model illustrated the significance of the Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT), degree of horizontal curvature, lane, shoulder and median widths, urban/rural, and the section's length, on the frequency of accident occurrence.
