Summary

Abstract. Despite showing great success of applications in many commercial fields, machine learning and data science models generally show limited success in many scientific fields, including hydrology (Karpatne et al., 2017). The approach is often criticized for its lack of interpretability and physical consistency. This has led to the emergence of new modelling paradigms, such as theory-guided data science (TGDS) and physics-informed machine learning. The motivation behind such approaches is to improve the physical meaningfulness of machine learning models by blending existing scientific knowledge with learning algorithms. Following the same principles in our prior work (Chadalawada et al., 2020), a new model induction framework was founded on genetic programming (GP), namely the Machine
