Researchers have developed GRC-ProbNet, an uncertainty-aware feature extraction method designed to improve cardiovascular disease (CVD) classification from CT images. This new approach builds upon the existing GRC-Net pipeline by using a deep ensemble to generate multiple segmentation masks, thereby extracting uncertainty features. Experiments on the MM-WHS and ASOCA datasets demonstrated that GRC-ProbNet significantly enhances CVD classification performance, achieving an AUROC of 92.92% compared to the baseline GRC-Net's 91.25%. The study also found that the uncertainty measure most indicative of segmentation quality does not always provide the strongest signal for downstream classification tasks. AI
