Abstract

There is a debate on the importance of autonomous vehicles (AVs) and the methods for ensuring AV safety. This paper analyses collision reports to determine the association between risk factors and the level of damage to an AV due to collisions. Association rule mining was used to develop methodologies that can advance result interpretability, which is crucial in the transportation field. Twenty-one rules were discovered to reveal the factors that co-occur with AV damage. This study demonstrates that collision data, when analysed using appropriate machine learning algorithms, can generate useful insights that complement current policies to enhance AV safety.
