ImageNet Challenging Classification with the Raspberry Pi: An Incremental Local Stochastic Gradient Descent Algorithm
share
With rising powerful, low-cost embedded devices, the edge computing has become an increasingly popular choice. In this paper, we propose a new incremental local stochastic gradient descent (SGD) tailored on the Raspberry Pi to deal with large ImageNet dataset having 1,261,405 images with 1,000 classes. The local SGD splits the data block into k partitions using kmeans algorithm and then it learns in the parallel way SGD models in each data partition to classify the data locally. The incremental local SGD sequentially loads small data blocks of the training dataset to learn local SGD models. The numerical test results on Imagenet dataset show that our incremental local SGD algorithm with the Raspberry Pi 4 is faster and more accurate than the state-of-the-art linear SVM run on a PC Intel(R) Core i7-4790 CPU, 3.6 GHz, 4 cores.
