In this paper, we describe a new method for training SVM on large data sets. Vector Quantization is applied to reduce a large data set by replacing examples by prototypes. Training time for choosing optimal parameters is greatly reduced. Some experimental results yields to demonstrate that this method can reduce training time by a factor of 100, while preserving classification rate. Moreover this method allows to find a decision function with a low complexity when the training data set includes noisy or error examples.
