Interesting. I have seen an AI build minesweepers repeatedly and try to clear a field, but that was mainly if I'd managed to find one in a 'dead end' system and bottled it up. Still, it wasn't sending *enough* (e.g. it'd sweep 12 mines or so at a time, out of a couple hundred, and those few mines swept or detonated would be more than replaced by the time the next sweeper(s) came along).

But I don't remember them trying to sweep minefields behind their lines. Maybe it's just a meaningless coincidence, but then we've no idea how it's coded... *shrug*
