Abstract
Studies on accident severity on mountainous freeways have predominantly centered on the personal injury level, rather than the aggregation level. However, for quantifying the accident causality, clustering the accident severity from multidimensional perspectives based on data‐driven approach is seldom investigated in existing studies. To address this research gap, we propose a two‐stage methodology that integrates accident clustering with Bayesian inference. Initially, a Gaussian mixture clustering algorithm is developed to categorize accident severity. Subsequently, a Bayesian network is constructed to explore the risk factors associated with accident severity. The proposed model is calibrated and validated using accident data collected from mountainous freeways in Yunnan Province, China, spanning the period from 2016 to 2021. The findings suggest that our proposed accident clustering method exhibits superior robustness compared to alternative clustering techniques. Bayesian inference analysis further elucidates that accident severity is significantly influenced by factors such as driving behavior, weather conditions, and road surface conditions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
