Injury Severity Prediction From Two-Vehicle Crash Mechanisms With Machine Learning and Ensemble Models

Machine learning algorithms aim to improve the power of predictors over conventional regression models. This study aims to tap the predictive potential of crash mechanism-related variables using ensemble machine learning models. The results demonstrate selected models can predict severity at a high...
