Abstract
Crash injuries are estimated to be the eighth leading cause of death globally for all age groups and the leading cause of death for children and young people 5–29 years of age. More people now die in crashes than from HIV/AIDS. For my research Project I analyzed Car Accidents in Chicago from 2018 to 2024.
This research project delves into the forecasting of car accidents within the Chicago metropolitan area, spanning from 2018 to 2024. The study's overarching objective is twofold: firstly, to evaluate various forecasting techniques to predict the incidence of car accidents accurately, thereby enabling preemptive safety measures. Secondly, the project aims to conduct a survival analysis on the incidents recorded, assessing the determinants of severity and outcomes post-crash.
