About this paper

Qiwei Li, Jorge Ortiz

teLLMe turns dashcam annotations into event-level variables and uses a learned graph and natural-language questions to form adjusted comparisons. For clear-weather highway windows, it compares peak with off-peak traffic density, defined as detected vehicles per minute. Its OLS estimate is 0.024, with a 95% confidence interval of 0.014 to 0.034. This observational estimate is not a definitive causal finding.
