Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for adaptively accelerating a BLAS operation based on a GPU. The apparatus for adaptively accelerating a BLAS operation based on a GPU includes a BLAS operation acceleration unit for setting optimal OpenCL parameters using machine-learning data attribute information and OpenCL device information and for creating a kernel in a binary format by compiling kernel source code; an OpenCL execution unit for creating an OpenCL buffer for a BLAS operation using information about an OpenCL execution environment and the optimal OpenCL parameters and for accelerating machine learning in an embedded system in such a way that a GPU that is capable of accessing the created OpenCL buffer performs the BLAS operation using the kernel, and an accelerator application unit for returning the result of the BLAS operation to a machine-learning algorithm.
