Hi, there is a quote in the fortunes package: To paraphrase provocatively, `machine learning is statistics minus any checking of models and assumptions'. -- Brian D. Ripley (about the difference between machine learning and statistics) useR! 2004, Vienna (May 2004)
Was this statement made in a presentation? If so, would it be possible to get a reference for the presentation?
