Optimal road accident case retrieval algorithm based on -nearest neighbor

An optimal algorithm which can help traffic managers to make more accurate decisions from previous road accident case knowledge has been proposed. The algorithm based on k -nearest neighbor determines weight value of each accident case feature based on information entropy index, establishes a road a...
