This project is\nmainly focused on the solution to the issues above, combining deep learning\nalgorithm with cloud computing platform to deal with large-scale data. A\nMapReduce-based handwriting character recognizer will be designed in this\nproject to verify the efficiency improvement this mechanism will achieve on\ntraining and practical large-scale data. Careful discussion and experiment will\nbe developed to illustrate how deep learning algorithm works to train\nhandwritten digits data, how MapReduce is implemented on deep learning neural\nnetwork, and why this combination accelerates computation. Besides performance,\nthe scalability and robustness will be mentioned in this report as well. Our\nsystem comes with two demonstration software that visually illustrates our\nhandwritten digit recognition/encoding application.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1510.02709v1","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1510.02709v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"large-scale-artificial-neural-network-1","repo_url":"https://github.com/sunkairan/MapReduce-Based-Deep-Learning","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"cloud-computing","task_name":"Cloud Computing"},{"task_slug":"deep-learning","task_name":"Deep Learning"},{"task_slug":"handwritten-digit-recognition","task_name":"Handwritten Digit Recognition"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
