This study aims to present the hybrid of Visual Geometry Group 16 (VGG-16) pre-trained by Gradient-Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT) models as a novel approach for predicting and generating karst cavities with high accuracy on various scales based on uncertainty assessment from a small dataset. Seismic wave impedance images were used as input data. Their manual interpretation was used to build GBDT classifiers for Light Gradient-Boosting Machine (LightGBM) and Unbiased Boosting with Categorical Features (CatBoost) for predicting the karst cavities and unconformities. The results show that the LightGBM was the best GBDT classifier, which performed excellently in karst cavity interpretation, giving an F1-score between 0.87 and 0.94 and a micro-G-Mean ranging from 0.92 to 0.96. Furthermore, the LightGBM performed better in cave prediction than Linear Regression (LR) and Multilayer Perceptron (MLP). The prediction of karst cavities according to the LightGBM model was performed well according to the uncertainty quantification. Therefore, the hybrid VGG16 and GBDT algorithms can be implemented as an improved approach for efficiently identifying geological features within similar reservoirs worldwide
