DynCur-Geo: Dynamic Curiosity Reward Shaping for Multimodal Active Geo-Localization

DynCur-Geo introduces a dynamic curiosity framework for active geo‑localization, adjusting the intrinsic reward based on the remaining distance to a target. A distance‑aware gate promotes early exploration and transitions the policy toward goal‑directed behavior as the UAV approaches the target, while potential‑based reward shaping provides dense progress guidance. Experiments in multimodal, cross‑scene, disaster‑affected, and long‑range scenarios demonstrate consistent performance gains over existing active geo‑localization baselines.
