contents We introduce a data-driven framework to automatically identify interpretable and physically meaningful hyperelastic constitutive models from sparse data. Leveraging symbolic regression, an algorithm based on genetic programming, our approach generates elegant hyperelastic models that achieve accurate data fitting through parsimonious mathematic formulae, while strictly adhering to hyperelasticity constraints such as polyconvexity. Our investigation spans three distinct hyperelastic models -- invariant-based, principal stretch-based, and normal strain-based -- and highlights the versatility of symbolic regression. We validate our new approach using synthetic data from five classic hyperelastic models and experimental data from the human brain to demonstrate algorithmic efficacy. Our results suggest that our symbolic regression robustly discovers accurate models with succinct mathematic expressions in invariant-based, stretch-based, and strain-based scenarios. Strikingly, the strain-based model exhibits superior accuracy, while both stretch- and strain-based models effectively capture the nonlinearity and tension-compression asymmetry inherent to human brain tissue. Polyconvexity examinations affirm the rigor of convexity within the training regime and demonstrate excellent extrapolation capabilities beyond this regime for all three models. However, the stretch-based models raise concerns regarding potential convexity loss under large deformations. Finally, robustness tests on noise-embedded data underscore the reliability of our symbolic regression algorithms. Our study confirms the applicability and accuracy of symbolic regression in the automated discovery of hyperelastic models for the human brain and gives rise to a wide variety of applications in other soft matter systems.
