intersection needs to be performed using data mining techniques. Once data are collected,

data mining is applied on the collected data.

c. Knowledge base integration: The results of learning that are relevant only for that par-

ticular intersection are integrated into the knowledge base of the framework for that

intersection. Hence, the knowledge base is specific to an intersection and the situations

that occur at the intersection. The knowledge base is used as the basis for preselection,

which is an algorithm to match the vehicles that pass through the intersection with the

collision patterns in the knowledge base. This is the key to reducing time to collision

(TTC).
