               used, the average number of targets found will significantly decrease, which is because probability map cannot
               effectively predict the random and evasive movement of the target. Moreover, when the UAV approaches the
               target, the existence probability of the target shifts between adjacent grid cells without motion prediction due
               to the rapid movement of the target, and the probability of losing the target will be significantly increased.


               6.4. Comparison of different optimization algorithms
               In order to compare the optimization effectiveness of the proposed optimization algorithm, a set of optimiza-
               tion algorithms will be used as a comparison in the following experiment. First of all, a motion-encoded
