description Cooperation in multi-vehicle systems has gained great interest, as it has potential and requires proving safety conditions and integration. To localize themselves, vehicles observe the environment using sensors with various technologies, each prone to faults that can degrade the performance and reliability of the system. In this paper, we propose the coupling of model-based and data-driven techniques in diagnosis to produce a fault-tolerant cooperative localization solution. Consequently, prior knowledge can guide a discriminative model that learns from a labeled dataset of appropriately injected sensor faults to effectively identify and flag erroneous readings. Going further in security, we conduct a comparative study on learning techniques: centralized and federated. In centralized learning, fault indicators generated by model-based techniques from all vehicles are collected to train a single model, while federating the learning allows local models to be trained on each vehicle individually without sharing anything but the models to be aggregated. Logistic regression is used for learning where parameters are established prior to learning and contingent upon the input dimensionality. We evaluate the faults detection performance considering diverse fault scenarios, aiming to test the effectiveness of each and assess their performance in the context of sensor faults detection within a multi-vehicle system.
