Danko,
I think your comment is closer to a reasonable definition but I am not
sure that is the common definition. The no free lunch idea is a very
useful bit of insight but treating a rule that does not typically
transcend the premises of its application as if it could is a mistake
or at least it can lead to a clumsy application of the rule. .
In the /Understanding machine learning/ book ISBN 978-1-107-05713-5, the
/no-free-lunch/ is a theorem (page 37).
And I do hope to use machine learning techniques in RefPerSys
<http://refpersys.org/> in a few months.
Read also the /Artificial Beings: the Conscience of a Conscious Machine
/book ISBN 978-1848211018
Cheers
