What is it about?

It compares 5 empirical and semi-empirical models to see if using physical principles to build models really helps to improve the extrapolation capability of the models.

Why is it important?

It shows that whether using more physical principles or more empirical coefficients does not affect if a model extrapolates well. Its extrapolation capability depends on the number of redundant coefficients a model contains. The fewer the coefficients, the better the performance.
