用混合注意力网络+后处理，精准识别航拍林中枯树。

Mapping standing dead trees is critical for assessing forest health, monitoring biodiversity, and mitigating wildfire risks, for which aerial imagery has proven useful. However, dense canopy structures, spectral overlaps between living and dead vegetation, and over-segmentation errors limit the reliability of existing methods. This study introduces a hybrid postprocessing framework that refines deep learning-based tree segmentation by integrating watershed algorithms with adaptive filtering, enhancing boundary delineation, and reducing false positives in complex forest environments. Tested on high-resolution aerial imagery from boreal forests, the framework improved instance-level segmentation accuracy by 41.5% and reduced positional errors by 57%, demonstrating robust performance in densely vegetated regions. By balancing detection accuracy and over-segmentation artifacts, the method enabled the precise identification of individual dead trees, which is critical for ecological monitoring. The framework's computational efficiency supports scalable applications, such as wall-to-wall tree mortality mapping over large geographic regions using aerial or satellite imagery. These capabilities directly benefit wildfire risk assessment (identifying fuel accumulations), carbon stock estimation (tracking emissions from decaying biomass), and precision forestry (targeting salvage loggings). By bridging advanced remote sensing techniques with practical forest management needs, this work advances tools for large-scale ecological conservation and climate resilience planning.
