This paper addresses the problem of pattern classification
using neural networks. Applying neural network classifiers
for classifying a large volume of high dimensional data is
a difficult task as the training process is computationally
expensive. A parallel implementation of the known train-
ing paradigms offers a feasible solution to the problem. By
exploiting the massively parallel structure of the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm for non-linear optimization a training algorithm for neural networks has been implemented on a Linux cluster using LAM (Local Area Multi-computer) MPI
(Message Passing Interface). The implementation, besides
facilitating the main objective of maximising computational
speedup, is also portable and scalable. A standard bench-
mark for neural network training comprising a sufficiently
large volume of satellite image data has been utilized to
present and discuss the properties of the implementation
