A clustering regression approach: A comprehensive injury severity analysis of pedestrian–vehicle crashes in New York, US and Montreal, Canada
TL;DR: In this article, the authors combine data mining and statistical regression methods to identify the main factors associated with the levels of pedestrian injury severity outcomes and provide recommendations for policy makers, traffic engineers, and law enforcement in order to reduce the severity of pedestrian-vehicle collisions.

Pathways from built environment to health: A conceptual framework linking behavior and exposure-based impacts
TL;DR: In this article, the authors synthesize recent research on behavior and exposure-based mechanisms that connect land use and transportation investments with various health outcomes and identify priority areas for research to inform policies and investments.

Macro and micro models for zonal crash prediction with application in hot zones identification
TL;DR: In this paper, a hot zone identification approach was proposed to exploit the merits of separate macro and micro screening results, and specific treatment strategies could be proposed to different screening categories, based on the proposed integrated screening approach.

Built environment factors in explaining the automobile-involved bicycle crash frequencies: a spatial statistic approach
TL;DR: In this article, a Poisson lognormal random effects model using hierarchal Bayesian estimation was employed to understand the relationship between built environment factors and bicycle crashes with motor vehicles involved in Seattle.

Poisson, Poisson-gamma and zero-inflated regression models of motor vehicle crashes: balancing statistical fit and theory
TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that the fundamental crash process follows a Bernoulli trial with unequal probability of independent events, also known as Poisson trials, and that the Poisson and other mixed probabilistic structures are approximations assumed for modeling the motor vehicle crash process.

Safety in numbers: more walkers and bicyclists, safer walking and bicycling
TL;DR: A motorist is less likely to collide with a person walking and bicycling if more people walk or bicycle, and policies that increase the numbers of people walking or bicycling appear to be an effective route to improving the safety of people walk and bicycle.

A note on modeling vehicle accident frequencies with random-parameters count models.
TL;DR: The empirical results show that random-parameters count models have the potential to provide a fuller understanding of the factors determining accident frequencies.

TL;DR: It was found that pedestrian and driver demographic factors, and road geometric, traffic and environment conditions are closely related to the frequency and injury severity of pedestrian crashes.
