DWFF-Net: A Multi-Scale Farmland System Habitat Identification Method with Adaptive Dynamic Weight Feature Fusion
To address insufficient accuracy in multi-scale segmentation for agricultural habitat recognition, this study proposes a Dynamic Weighted Feature Fusion Network (DWFF-Net). Its encoder uses frozen DINOv3 to extract basic features and introduces a data-level adaptive dynamic weighting strategy based on relationships between image categories and feature maps. The decoder employs a dynamic weight calculation network for deep fusion of multi-level features and a hybrid loss for optimization. Statistical analysis shows that weight entropy tends to decrease as habitat category count increases, indicating adaptive adjustment of fusion strategy according to scene complexity. Experiments on a previously constructed agricultural habitat dataset validate DWFF-Net. Ablations yield mIoU 0.6979 and mF1 0.8049, exceeding the Static Weighted Feature Fusion Network by 1.82% and 1.54%, respectively, confirming that dynamic weighting improves multi-level feature utilization. Compared with U-Net, DeepLabv3+, SegFormer, and DPT, DWFF-Net improves mIoU by 16.32%, 6.49%, 4.17%, and 3.18%, respectively. For tiny features like scattered trees, IoU reaches 0.2707, outperforming those models by 99.85%, 11.45%, 22.24%, and 19.32%, verifying effectiveness in tiny habitat segmentation. This framework enables low-cost, high-precision habitat mapping and supports refined monitoring in agricultural landscapes.
