We study a simple group chase and escape model by introducing new parameters with which configurations of chasing and escaping in groups are classified into three characteristic patterns. In particular, the parameters distinguish two essential config
urations: a one-directional formation of chasers and escapees, and an escapee surrounded by chasers. In addition, pincer movements and aggregating processes of chasers and escapees are also quantified. Appearance of these configurations highlights efficiency of hunting during chasing and escaping.
