We propose a set of open-source software modules to perform structured Perceptron Training, Prediction and Evaluation within the Hadoop framework. Apache Hadoop is a freely available environment for running distributed applications on a computer cluster. The software is designed within the Map-Reduce paradigm. Thanks to distributed computing, the proposed software reduces substantially execution times while handling huge data-sets. The distributed Perceptron training algorithm preserves convergence properties, thus guaranties same accuracy performances as the serial Perceptron. .
