Abstract: Being applied to handling large-scale problems, support vector machines(SVMs) needs longer training time and larger memory. I}he paper analyzed the limitation of SVMs, classified the algorithms of applying SVMs to handle large-scale problems into seven types, and made profound and comprehensive analysis of each kind of algorithm. Moreover, some issues valuable for future exploration in this area were indicated and discussed.
