“…The commonly used symbolic regression methods are genetic programming and related evolution algorithms, which search for the best mathematical expressions by means of natural selection, with the given input of variables and operators. ,, Recently, other methods have also been proposed, for example, the uniform random global search, , the SISSO (sure independence screening and sparsifying operator), and the sparse regression-related methods. ,, In particular, SISSO has recently demonstrated its efficiency in a number of examples in materials science for learning accurate models that are simple expressions. − ,, It first creates a space of all of the expressions within prescribed complexity using the given mathematical operators and variables. Then, all of the expressions { x i } are used as “basis functions” to describe the target property y = ∑β i x i , followed by sparse regression to simplify the model.…”
