professorial fellow at St Peter's College. He retired August 2014 due to ill health.[1]
Biography
Ripley has made contributions to the fields of
artificial neural networks in the 1990s helped to bring aspects of machine learning and data mining to the attention of statistical audiences.[2] He emphasised the value of robust statistics
in his books Modern Applied Statistics with S and Pattern Recognition and Neural Networks.
Ripley helped develop the
S programming language and its implementations: S-PLUS[citation needed] and R.[3] He co-authored two books based on S, Modern Applied Statistics with S and S Programming.[4][5] From 2000 to 2021 he was one of the most active committers to the R core.[6]
He was educated at the
Imperial College, London from 1976 until 1983, at which point he moved to the University of Strathclyde.[8]
