A qualitative comparison of the three fitting approaches—Symbolic Regression, Bassler model and Renormalization model, as inferred from our results.

SR fitting	Accuracy and interpretability, but no generality. Considers non-linear terms
Bassler model	Physics-based fitting, but material- and range-specific. Not accurate beyond the bounds selected above, so not general
Renormalization fitting	General and interpretable approach but requires rescaling depending on the physics at play. Reconstruction is less accurate compared to Bassler and SR
