dc.description.abstractDeath, injury, and disability from road traffic crashes continue to be a major global public health problem. Therefore, methods to reduce accident severity are of significant interest to traffic agencies and the public at large. Noisy data in the traffic accident dataset obscure the discovery of important factors and mislead conclusions. Identifying and correcting noisy values is an important goal of data cleansing and preprocessing. This paper proposes a new algorithm called NoiseCleaner to identify and correct noisy categorical attributes values in large traffic accident datasets. We evaluate our algorithm using four publicly available traffic accident datasets from Australia and United States, namely, two road crash datasets from the Queensland Government data depository (data.qld.gov.au) and two datasets from the New York's open data portal (data.ny.gov). We compare our technique with several existing state-of-the-art methods and show that our algorithm performs significantly better than the existing algorithms.
