Image recognition technology belongs to an important research field of artificial intelligence. In order to enhance the application value of image recognition technology in the field of computer vision and improve the technical dilemma of image recognition, the research improves the feature reuse method of dense convolutional network. Based on gradient quantization, traditional parallel algorithms have been improved. This improvement allows for independent parameter updates layer by layer, reducing communication time and data volume. The introduction of quantization error reduces the impact of gradient loss on model convergence. The test results show that the improvement strategy designed by the research improves the model parameter efficiency while ensuring the recognition effect. Narrowing the learning rate is conducive to refining the updating granularity of model parameters, and deepening the number of network layers can effectively improve the final recognition accuracy and convergence effect of the model. It is better than the existing state-of-the-art image recognition models, visual geometry group and EfficientNet. The parallel acceleration algorithm, which is improved by the gradient quantization, performs better than the traditional synchronous data parallel algorithm, and the improvement of the acceleration ratio is obvious. Compared with the traditional synchronous data parallel algorithm and stale synchronous parallel algorithm, the optimized parallel acceleration algorithm of the study ensures the image data training speed and solves the bottleneck problem of communication data. The model designed by the research improves the accuracy and training speed of image recognition technology and expands the use of image recognition technology in the field of computer vision.Please confirm the affiliation details of [1] is correct.The relevant detailed information in reference [1] has been confirmed to be correct.
