Using the uncertain boundaries defined by the voting methods as auxiliary information, we obtained a better performance in the classification of BI-RADS 4A ultrasound images, while variance-based uncertain boundaries had no effect on improving classification performance. Additionally, fine-grained network helped find discriminative features comparing with the commonly used classification networks.
