The Waikato Environment for Knowledge Analysis (Weka) is a comprehensive suite of Java class libraries that implement many state-of-the-art Machine Learning and data mining algorithms[1]. Weka is freely available on the World-Wide Web and accompanies a new text on data mining which documents and fully explains all the algorithms it contains. It is free software licensed under the GNU General Public License. WEKA is a popular suite of machine learning software written in Java, developed at the University of Waikato, New Zealand.

History
- In 1993, the University of Waikato in New Zealand began development of the original version of Weka, which became a mix of Tcl/Tk, C, and Makefiles.[2]
- The original non-Java version of Weka was a Tcl/Tk front-end to (mostly third-party) modeling algorithms implemented in other programming languages, plus data preprocessing utilities in C, and a Makefile-based system for running machine learning experiments. This original version was primarily designed as a tool for analyzing data from agricultural domains.[3]
- In 1997, WEKA was redeveloped from scratch in Java, including implementations of modeling algorithms.[4]
- The 2005 ACM SIGKDD Service Award was presented to the Weka team for their development of the freely-available Weka Data Mining Software.[5]
- In 2006, Pentaho Corp., creator of the world's most popular open source business intelligence (BI) suite, announced the acquisition of Weka open source data mining project.[6]
- WEKA was ranked among Infoworld's 'Top 11 open source tools to make the most of machine learning'.[7]
