Applying Data Mining in Prediction and Classification of Urban Traffic

Data mining is a branch of computer science which recently has a great use for enterprises. Applying data mining methods, huge databases have been analyzed and processed. Data mining techniques are usually hired to mine knowledge and models from enormous data sets for prediction of new events. Furthermore these techniques are commonly used in fields which generate great amount of data that can not be processed by ordinary methods. During the last decade traffic management became a new field of science which produced unlimited data, and this amount of data needed new methods to be processed. It is clear that one of the most important fields in traffic management is Traffic prediction. As a result data mining methods were chosen to generate dependable patterns. In this paper we applied Classification methods to learn traffic behavior and prediction of new events.
