Abstract
|
|
|
|
| Support vector machines are widely used for classification and regression tasks. However, sequential implementations for support vector machines are usually unable to deal with the increasing size of current real-world learning problems. In this context, Intel (R) Xeon Phi (TM) processors allow easily incorporating high performance computing strategies to improve execution times. This article proposes a parallel implementation of the popular LIBSVM library, specially adapted to the Intel (R) Xeon Phi (TM) architecture. The proposed implementation is evaluated using publicly available datasets corresponding to classification and regression tasks. Results show that the proposed parallel version computes the same results than the original LIBSVM while reducing the time needed for training by up to a factor of 4.81. |
