When does Shapley value help detect sensor faults?

Shapley values have become popular for identifying which sensors are faulty in systems. This paper rigorously analyzes when this approach actually works: for independent sensors, it's mathematically equivalent to a much simpler test, but for correlated sensors (like paired measurements), it can be either better or worse depending on correlation strength and attack type. Combining both methods yields optimal performance in some cases.
