| Abstract | This paper presents a new evolutionary planner for optimizing the input commands of multiple Unmanned Aircraft Vehicles (UAVs) in target search missions. This planner minimizes the target detection time and maximizes the UAVs performance, given 1) the uncertainty in the target location and sensor information, and 2) the UAV motion and sensorial payload models. On one hand, it calculates the detection time related criteria using Bayesian theory to handle the uncertainty of the problem. On the other hand, it measures the UAVs performance against a real kinematic model that takes into account some environmental effects. Besides, it exploits the typical versatility and good performance of evolutionary algorithms to tackle this search problem as a multi-objective and multi-stepped receding horizon controller, capable of providing acceptable long term (less-myopic) decisions due to a novel optimization criterium that weights the future expected observations with the UAV manoeuvrability constraints. All these properties let it handle successfully the minimum time target detection task in real world scenarios, as the results analyzed in this paper, obtained over different setups, show. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
