A Deep Learning-Based Car Accident Detection Framework Using Edge and Cloud Computing

The evolving technological landscape has seen a pivotal shift with the advent of edge computing, transforming various sectors, particularly accident detection. Edge computing enhances road safety by enabling realtime data processing from onboard sensors, cameras, and connected devices, addressing limitations in traditional cloudbased systems. This paper introduces a deep learning-based accident detection framework within an edge-cloud setup. Utilizing a CNN model, accidents are detected at the edge node near the data source, ensuring low latency, reduced network usage, and faster execution times. The model achieves a remarkable 95.91% accuracy.
