Our grand challenge is to lower traffic accidents by using autonomous vehicles. To achieve this in the scope of our GCI project we created a machine learning algorithm that classifies street signs and pedestrians. This grand challenge contributes to the problem of car accidents. We wrote a machine learning algorithm that is trained to detect object and people on the road with the help of fastAI. Our grand challenge highlights machine learning, an essential mechanism to the furtherance of science and society, and its implementation and efficacy.
