Abstract

In this paper, a new optimization method has been proposed for accident prediction non-linear models. This has been achieved by eliminating the Hessian matrix from the equation of optimal pace length in the gradient vector method. One advantage is that it is independent of the starting point in optimization processes and it provides convergence at the highest top as well. This method has been tested on an accident prediction model and its preference over the gradient vector method has been proven.
