Abstract:

With the rapid development of information age, big data has become the key technology to promote people's production and daily life to undergo major changes, and plays a very important part in the development of various fields, including agriculture. In order to effectively analyze and utilize the big data and make it play its maximum value, the research and development of deep learning technology plays a decisive role. In this context, this paper gives a detailed introduction to the main technical characteristics and development of big data deep learning system, including deep learning model (such as CNN model and RNN model), optimization algorithm, big data learning framework, hardware configuration and so on. This paper also explains the technical characteristics and development process of five mainstream deep learning frameworks, including PyTorch, and compares the strengths and weaknesses of these frameworks. In addition, this paper also mentions the typical application of big data deep learning system in agriculture, "Grape Leaf Downy Mildew Forecasting System Based on Big Data", and takes its key step "Grape Leaf Classification and Recognition Process" as an example to introduce its working principle in detail, including data collection, sample feature extraction, clustering algorithms, classification algorithms and result analysis. This system uses big data and deep learning technology to help detect and prevent downy mildew of grape leaves. Finally, this paper introduces the main development trend of big data deep learning system, as well as the problems requiring attention in agricultural research and application. Today, big data deep learning system is playing an increasingly important role and has been widely used in the field of agricultural data analysis, including crop pest prediction.
