    Keywords : Multiple-Instance Learning MIL ; prostate cancer; bag creation; digital pathology; binary classification; multiclass classification;

    Abstract : Prostate cancer is the second most diagnosed cancer worldwide and its diagnosis is done through visual inspection of biopsy tissue by a pathologist, who assigns a score used by doctors to decide on the treatment. However, the scoring system, the Gleason score, is affected by a high inter and intra-observer variability, lack of standardization, and overestimation. READ MORE
