   University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

   Author : Joel Ekelund; [2017]
   Keywords : Convolutional Neural Networks; rotation invariance; deep learning; automated Gleason grading; Mathematics and Statistics;

   Abstract : Prostate cancer was in 2012 the second most common type of cancer for males globally. To be able to treat prostate cancer in the most effective way it is important to know how aggressive the cancer is. This aggressiveness is graded using the Gleason score. READ MORE

3. 2. Prostate Cancer Classification using Convolutional Neural Networks

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTH

   Author : Anna Gummeson; [2016]
   Keywords : automated Gleason grading; prostate cancer classification; deep learning; Convolutional Neural Networks; Artificial Neural Networks; CNN; ANN; Mathematics and Statistics;

   Abstract : In 2012 prostate cancer was the second most common cancer diagnose for men. The diagnosis is confirmed by pathologists doing ocular inspection of prostate biopsies and the specimens are classified according to the Gleason grading system. The main goal of this thesis is to automate the classification using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). READ MORE
