In theory, on average over all possible problems all algorithms are the same.
In practice, that's a pretty useless piece of information, since the only thing that matters is your problem.
Tabular data, and not huge amounts? Tree-based systems are your friend. Vast amounts of binary data (or increasingly text)? Deep neural networks will get you the best result.
