  We are witnessing a proliferation of massive visual data. Unfortunately
scaling existing computer vision algorithms to large datasets leaves
researchers repeatedly solving the same algorithmic, logistical, and
infrastructural problems. Our goal is to democratize computer vision; one
should not have to be a computer vision, big data and distributed computing
expert to have access to state-of-the-art distributed computer vision
algorithms. We present CloudCV, a comprehensive system to provide access to
state-of-the-art distributed computer vision algorithms as a cloud service
through a Web Interface and APIs.
