A Review of Traffic Incident Duration Anal ysis

This paper reviews the findings of research in incident duration analysis. A brief introduction of traffic incidents, incident types, and incident management systems is given first. The theoretical argument of the distribution of the incident durations is explained. Several methods used to analyse the incident durations, including variance analysis, regression, nonparametric regression,decision tree, hazard duration, and fuzzy logic, are described. The research concludes that the most research found that the distribution of the incident duration is right skewed and that standardisation of the data collection is important for the incident duration analysis. It is also found that the traditional statistic methods have difficulties in modelling the incident duration with the incomplete incident data. The future research in incident duration analysis was recommended such as artificial intelligence methods and standardisation of the data collection.
