Abstract:
We have entered the big data era, where massive data are generated each single day. Most of these new generated big data are images and videos. Besides the fast-increasing data size, the image and video processing algorithms become much more complex, which poses great demands to data storage and computation power. Our image processing cloud project aims to support the image processing research by leveraging the cloud computing and big data analysis technology. In this paper, we present our design for image processing cloud architecture, and big data processing engine based on Hadoop. We also report the performance scalability and analysis on the cloud using several widely used image processing algorithms.
