用评估指标筛选互补视觉模型特征，提升分割精度。

Although large-scale visual foundation models (VFMs) achieve remarkable performance in semantic understanding, they still underperform in instance-aware dense prediction tasks. They exhibit different biases in representation: for instance, promptable segmentation models (e.g., SAM2) focus on fine-grained region boundaries, while self-supervised models (e.g., DINOv3) emphasize object-level structure. This observation highlights the potential of combining complementary features from different VFMs to enhance downstream dense prediction tasks. However, naive multi-VFM fusion seldom leads to reliable gains, and interpretable principles for leveraging their complementary features are still underexplored. In this work, we propose a metric-guided approach that effectively selects and aggregates complementary features from different VFMs based on explicit assessment scores. Specifically, we design a suite of label-free metrics in feature space across two aspects, Structural Coherence and Edge Fidelity, to assess features of VFM encoders. Guided by these scores, we identify complementary edge-strong and structure-strong encoder pairs, and integrate them via a master-auxiliary fusion scheme. This feature fusion requires no complex architectural changes and is trained only in a single stage. Our model shows consistent performance gains across multiple dense prediction tasks compared with the baselines, with better object-level semantics and more accurately localized boundaries.
