Short answer is: no, Weka doesn't run on GPUs. It runs in the JVM on the CPU. Why? If one wants to take advantage of GPU compute resources, then one has to use libraries that give you that capability while designing your software. In case of GPUs that could be NVIDIA's CUDA library. Weka predates this GPU capability and was aimed at being cross-platform (write once, run anywhere). Having Weka take advantage of the GPU would require a complete rewrite of its code base, unfortunately. The wekadeeplearning4j package takes advantage of your GPU for its deep learning methods.
