text: Data mining algorithms are originally designed by assuming the data is available at one centralized site. These algorithms also assume that the whole data is fit into main memory while running the algorithm. But in today's scenario the data has to be handled is distributed even geographically. Bringing the data into a centralized site is a bottleneck in terms of the bandwidth when compared with the size of the data. In this paper for multiclass SVM we propose an algorithm which builds a global SVM model by merging the local SVMs using a distributed approach(DSVM). And the global SVM will be communicated to each site and made it available for further classification. The experimental analysis has shown promising results with better accuracy when compared with both the centralized and ensemble method. The time complexity is also reduced drastically because of the parallel construction of local SVMs. The experiments are conducted by considering the data sets of size 100s to hundred of 100s which also addresses the issue of scalability.
  @cite_0: We present an algorithm and implementation for distributed parallel training of single-machine multiclass SVMs. While there is ongoing and healthy debate about the best strategy for multiclass classification, there are some features of the single-machine approach that are not available when training alternatives such as one-vs-all, and that are quite complex for tree based methods. One obstacle to exploring single-machine approaches on large datasets is that they are usually limited to running on a single machine! We build on a framework borrowed from parallel convex optimization — the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) — to develop a new consensus based algorithm for distributed training of single-machine approaches. This is demonstrated with an implementation of our novel sequential dual algorithm (DCMSVM) which allows distributed parallel training with small communication requirements. Benchmark results show significant reduction in wall clock time compared to current state of the art multiclass SVM implementation (Liblinear) on a single node. Experiments are performed on large scale image classification including results with modern high-dimensional features.
  @cite_9: Disclosed is a method for microwave plasma processing characterized by providing a plasma processing period of time having no radio-frequency voltage applied to the sample stage. Particularly, if the present invention is used for the shaping by etching of the conductive material layer provided on an underlying insulation material, effects such as shortening of processing time and improvement of etching accuracy can be obtained in the case that the radio-frequency voltage is applied only for the period of time for removing the surface oxide film of the portion to be etched, or in the case that the radio-frequency voltage is further applied until nearly the time to initiate over-etching, and, the latter case is also effective for making the side wall of the portion to be etched vertical.
summary: A multiclass classification approach for large data sets is discussed by using SVM,enclosing ball(MEB) method @cite_9 . Solving a single optimization problem for the multiclasses is very expensive in terms of the time. A distributed parallel training approach is discussed for single-machine problem in @cite_0 .
