SPADE: SPaT Attack Detection from the Connected Vehicle's Perspective

The paper introduces SPADE, a labelled, multi‑modal dataset for detecting attacks on Signal Phase and Timing (SPaT) messages from the perspective of connected vehicles. Generated via Eclipse MOSAIC, SPADE includes 1.89 million timestep records across six attack classes and one benign class, combining SPaT fields, camera confidence scores, and V2V peer data over 40 features. The dataset, along with generation code and scenario configurations, is publicly released on GitHub to enable reproducible deep‑learning intrusion detection research in C‑V2X security.

SPADE: SPaT Attack Detection from the Connected Vehicle's Perspective

SPADE is a labelled, multi‑modal, simulation‑based dataset for detecting attacks on Signal Phase and Timing (SPaT) messages from the perspective of connected vehicles. It contains 1.89 million timestep records generated by injecting six classes of application‑layer attacks and one benign class into the SAE J2735 SPaT protocol, across multiple intersection geometries, operating conditions, and random seeds. Each record fuses SPaT fields, onboard camera confidence scores, and cooperative V2V peer data into 40 features, enabling deep‑learning intrusion detection systems to distinguish deliberate attacks from environmental noise.

HERMES: Heterogeneous Edge-Relational Multi-Head Embedded SSM Attention for Traffic Conflict Prediction at Signalized Intersections

arXiv:2607. 20505v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Surrogate safety measures (SSMs) enable proactive traffic safety assessment, but many existing methods evaluate pairwise interactions independently or flatten multi-agent scenes into fixed feature vectors, limiting their ability to represent heterogeneous interaction structure and evolving scene-level risk.

Adversarial Trust Poisoning in Vehicular Collaborative Perception

The paper introduces TrustFlip, an attack that exploits consistency‑based defenses in vehicular collaborative perception by deploying physical adversarial objects to create inconsistent observations among benign vehicles. This misattribution lowers the trust score of a targeted vehicle, leading to its exclusion from the collaboration and a degradation of perception performance. The authors evaluate the attack across multiple architectures, showing it can remove a benign vehicle in up to 87.7% of scenarios and reduce Average Precision by up to 13%, and propose a mitigation called TrustReflect that reduces the attack success rate by 35–100%.

QoS-Aware Federated Learning for Multimodal In-Cabin Interaction in Smart Vehicles

The paper introduces FedQoS, an asynchronous federated learning framework designed for multimodal in‑cabin interaction in smart vehicles. It uses a two‑phase gating mechanism: a resource‑aware training gate that starts local learning only when sensing buffers and energy reserves meet safety thresholds, and a QoS‑aware transmission policy that gates uplink updates based on an efficiency score balancing model novelty, latency, and energy costs. Experiments on vehicular datasets show FedQoS achieves competitive personalized accuracy with only marginal loss compared to FedAvg, while reducing communication overhead by 76.7% and latency cost by 26.0%.

HMS-SCP: Task-Oriented Multi-Scale Semantic Communication for V2X Cooperative Perception

The paper introduces HMS‑SCP, a hierarchical multi‑scale semantic‑aware cooperative perception framework for V2X communication. It uses a spatial importance predictor to select task‑relevant grid elements at multiple scales and maps them directly into complex‑valued symbols for joint source‑channel coding, achieving ultra‑low symbol rates and noise resilience. Experiments on OPV2V and DAIR‑V2X show that HMS‑SCP maintains high‑confidence far‑field detection with sub‑16 ms latency even under severe Rayleigh fading and extreme compression.
