Abstract: ABSTRACT ASSESSMENT OF HORN OF A VEHICLE Techniques for assessing horn modules in vehicles are disclosed. The technique 5 retrieves heterogeneous data from multiple sources, including vibration patterns, thermal attributes, audio frequency, amplitude, duration, and timing of horn sounds. The technique processes the data and executes a first computational model to generate a reconstruction score indicative of potential anomalies. The technique then identifies specific condition parameters associated with any detected anomaly. A 10 second computational model validates the anomaly by comparing it against a database of pre-recorded horn profiles and classifications from various vehicle models. If an anomaly is confirmed, the technique triggers an alert. The two-stage approach, combining initial anomaly detection with historical data validation, enhances accuracy and reduces false positives. The ability to analyze diverse data types and 15 adapt to different vehicle models makes the technique a versatile and efficient tool for automotive quality control and safety assurance. Figure 2 20
