Sumario:Learning algorithms for neural networks involve CPU intensive processing and consequently great effort has been done to develop parallel implemetations intended for a reduction of learning time. This work briefly describes parallel schemes for a backpropagation algorithm and proposes a distributed system architecture for developing parallel training with a partition pattern scheme. Under this approach, weight changes are computed concurrently, exchanged between system components and adjusted accordingly until the whole parallel learning process is completed. Some comparative results are also shown.
