To expedite the learning process, a group of algorithms known as parallel machine learning algorithmscan be executed simultaneously on several computers or processors. As data grows in both size andcomplexity, and as businesses seek efficient ways to mine that data for insights, algorithms like thesewill become increasingly crucial. Data parallelism, model parallelism, and hybrid techniques are justsome of the methods described in this article for speeding up machine learning algorithms. We alsocover the benefits and threats associated with parallel machine learning, such as data splitting,communication, and scalability. We compare how well various methods perform on a variety ofmachine learning tasks and datasets, and we talk about the advantages and disadvantages of thesemethods. Finally, we offer our thoughts on where this field of study is headed and where furtherresearch is needed. The importance of parallel machine learning for businesses that want to gleaninsights from massive datasets is emphasised, and the paper provides a thorough introduction of thediscipline.
