摘要
Natural fractures (NFs) and drilling-induced tensile fractures (DITFs) in acoustic image logs provide insights into rock mass structure and in situ stress, but manual characterization is time-consuming. Deep learning can automate this task, although expert-labeled data are scarce. We investigate whether adapting a pretrained vision foundation model (VFM) outperforms task-specific models trained from scratch with limited annotations. Using 80 annotated acoustic image samples, we fine-tuned DINOv3, pretrained on satellite imagery, and evaluated it on four boreholes excluded from fine-tuning. The adapted model estimated NF and DITF parameters comparably to human interpretation. Relative to U-Net, YOLOv8, and Swin Transformer models trained from scratch, it yielded fewer false positives and negatives and more accurate fracture counts and orientations. However, its performance advantage generally narrowed as training sample size decreased. We also assessed decoder architecture, fine-tuning strategy, and image enhancement. A progressive upsampling decoder with full fine-tuning performed best among the DINOv3 configurations tested, while fracture-focused image enhancement did not consistently improve accuracy. These results demonstrate the potential of VFM adaptation for fracture characterization in acoustic image logs with limited labeled data and suggest a transferable workflow for other annotation-scarce geoscientific imaging tasks.
