Chinese scientists create ‘kill-them-all’ algorithm for drone warfare

A research team from northwestern China has released a new algorithm that could fundamentally change how drone swarms hunt and destroy enemy targets.
The algorithm, known as HG-STR (Heterogeneous Graph Spatio-Temporal Reasoning), promises to allow a fleet of fixed-wing drones to autonomously search a vast battlefield and eliminate every single enemy, even when their communications are being jammed and their vision is blocked.
It is the first known algorithm capable of achieving a 100 per cent...
