Abstract
One general problem is the detection of sensor defects. Defective sensors can have several negative consequences, e. g., they will lead to machine failure when wear and tear of a machine is not detected sufficiently in advance. In this contribution we present a method to detect faulty sensors by calculating the consistency between sensor values. Background for this consistency-driven approach is a sensor fusion algorithm which combines sensors to attributes. These attributes are generally created based on local or thematical proximity. Therefore a consistency based approach is promising.
