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%.

Camera-based object detectors are vulnerable to physical adversarial attacks designed to suppress detections. While adversarial training and input purification offer some protection, they often overfit to specific attack distributions and fail on adaptive adversaries.

Federated learning (FL) enables aircraft fleet operators to jointly train remaining-useful-life (RUL) models from engine sensor telemetry without sharing raw data. This study examines two complementary challenges: benign heterogeneity, where honest operators observe different operating conditions and fault modes, and adversarial heterogeneity, where compromised operators submit poisoned updates.

The paper introduces a spatio‑temporal trust‑field framework that aggregates individual vehicle trust into a continuous representation over road segments. Using simulation‑based experiments with synthetic trajectories, the authors analyze trust‑field behavior in simple road scenarios. They also explore reconstructing the full trust field from sparse roadside‑unit measurements, comparing a coordinate‑based deep learning baseline with a field‑informed method that enforces measurement consistency, finding the latter yields more accurate recovery of low‑trust patterns and lower reconstruction error.
