Task: Multi-class prostate segmentation (prostate gland + tumor) on prostate MRI (T2W, ADC, HBV) + ISUP grade classification (6-class: 0=Benign/Indolent, 1–5=ISUP grades)

Per-Fold Results — Classification

Notes:
- Prostate gland segmentation is strong and consistent (DSC 0.957 ± 0.006); the gland is a well-defined, large structure
- Tumor segmentation is challenging (DSC 0.474 ± 0.180): 71% of cases (1075/1500) have no tumor, so many folds see near-zero tumor Dice dominated by true-negatives
- Fold 3 has noticeably lower tumor DSC (0.168) and NSD (0.188), likely due to an unfavorable fold split or harder cases
- Classification: AUROC 0.727 is reasonable for 6-class ISUP grading; Bal Acc (0.226) and F1 (0.187) are near the random baseline (1/6 ≈ 0.167), driven by severe class imbalance (847/1500 cases are grade 0)
