Air transportation systems are designed to ensure that
aircraft accidents are rare events. To minimize these accidents,
factors causing or contributing to accidents must be understood
and prevented. Previous research has studied accident data to
determine these factors. The low rate of accidents however,
makes it difficult to discover repeating patterns of these factors.
In this research we employed a data mining technique to conduct
a holistic analysis of aircraft
incident
data in relation to the
accident
data. The analysis identifies relationships between the
accident and incident data and finds patterns of causal and
contributory factors which are significantly associated with
aircraft accidents.
