Machine learning to help predict traffic offenders soon

Traffic offenders beware, in the near future, machine learning models will be able to predict which vehicle is more likely to commit a traffic offence.

The models will leverage large sets of data, which the intelligent machine will be able to crunch and analyse, according to researchers at the IIIT Hyderabad.

The Institute has in an analysis of traffic offences for the city of Ahmedabad, Gujarat has found that traffic offenders with more number of e-challans were less likely to pay fines. Another trend was that payment of smaller fines are preferred over larger ones.
