Montreal Road Collision Dataset (2012-2021)
Description
This dataset is derived from the public dataset of road collisions that occurred in Montreal, which is accessible at https://www.donneesquebec.ca/recherche/dataset/vmtl-collisions-routieres. Unlike the original dataset, this dataset has been preprocessed (handling of missing data, data rebalancing via the SMOTE-ENN algorithm, etc.), and categorical variables have been encoded, making it ready for machine learning and other tasks. The .pkl file containing the encoding and the notebook demonstrating how to use the .pkl file are provided. For more details, please refer to the table below, which represents the data dictionary of this dataset. This dataset is shared under the Attribution License (CC-BY 4.0).
