Query: Autonomous and cooperative design of the monitor positions for a team of
  UAVs to maximize the quantity and quality of detected objects   This paper tackles the problem of positioning a swarm of UAVs inside a
completely unknown terrain, having as objective to maximize the overall
situational awareness. The situational awareness is expressed by the number and
quality of unique objects of interest, inside the UAVs' fields of view. YOLOv3
and a system to identify duplicate objects of interest were employed to assign
a single score to each UAVs' configuration. Then, a novel navigation algorithm,
capable of optimizing the previously defined score, without taking into
consideration the dynamics of either UAVs or environment, is proposed. A
cornerstone of the proposed approach is that it shares the same convergence
characteristics as the block coordinate descent (BCD) family of approaches. The
effectiveness and performance of the proposed navigation scheme were evaluated
utilizing a series of experiments inside the AirSim simulator. The experimental
evaluation indicates that the proposed navigation algorithm was able to
consistently navigate the swarm of UAVs to "strategic" monitoring positions and
also adapt to the different number of swarm sizes. Source code is available at
