The purpose of this study was to develop a convolutional neural network (CNN) for dense prediction of prostate cancer using mp-MRI datasets. Baseline CNN outperformed logistic regression and random forest models. Transfer learning and unsupervised pre-training did not significantly improve CNN performance; however, test-time augmentation resulted in significantly higher F1 scores over both baseline CNN and CNN plus either of transfer learning or unsupervised pre-training. The best performing model was CNN with transfer learning and test-time augmentation (F1 score of 0.59, AUPRC of 0.61 and AUROC of 0.93).
