摘要
This work examines the Cooperative Hunters problem, where a swarm of unmanned air vehicles (UAVs) is used for searching one or more "evading targets," which are moving in a predefined area while trying to avoid a detection by the swarm. By arranging themselves into efficient geometric flight Configurations, the UAVs optimize their integrated sensing capabilities, enabling the search of a maximal territory.
