The goal of this study is to demonstrate the classification value of the latent encodings of a neural network trained for image segmentation of the lung region. In order to achieve this, the gold standard of semantic segmentation, a 3D U-Net was used to extract the encodings for 20 thoracic CT images (10 COVID-19 and 10 Control), and a random forest classifier was trained based on the encodings developed from two training experiments. Performance was analyzed in terms of the independent classification value of each voxel of the U-Net’s latent encoding layer in distinguishing COVID-19 v/s control images.
