Decentralized Trust Evaluation in Vehicular Internet of Things
Open accessAbstract
Trust management in a decentralized vehicular network, such as vehicular ad hoc network, is particularly challenging due to the lack of centralized communication infrastructure and a fast varying feature of the vehicular environment. In this paper, we propose a decentralized trust management scheme for vehicular networks. The proposed scheme uses a fuzzy logic-based trust calculation approach to evaluate the direct trust where trustee nodes are located within the transmission range of a trustor node. A reinforcement learning-based approach is also employed to estimate the indirect trust where the behaviors of trustee cannot be observed directly. The extensive simulations are conducted to show the advantage of the proposed scheme over other baseline approaches.

Rani et al. used game theory to design a lightweight trust evaluation scheme, improving malicious node detection success rate and energy efficiency, but the types of external attacks resisted are relatively single and protection comprehensiveness is poor.
“In the same year, Rani R and others [50] used game theory to design a lightweight trust evaluation scheme, which not only improved the success rate of malicious node detection but also improved the energy efficiency of trust evaluation.However, the types of external attacks that can be resisted are relatively single, and the comprehensiveness of the protection of trust assessment is relatively”

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredGuleng et al. proposed a decentralized fuzzy-logic architecture integrating a vehicle's own experience and peer recommendations to label unintentional dishonest behavior, using reinforcement learning and Q-learning for indirect trust.
“In [115], Guleng et al. proposed a decentralized architecture that integrates a vehicle’s own experience and peer recommendations using fuzzy logic. This is carried out with the intention of labeling the vehicle’s unintentional dishonest behavior. The concept of RL is enforced by an indirect trust score for vehicles with no direct connection to the trustor.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
