Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/1809.09125, https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.122.011101. The model is referred to as surfinBH3dq8 in the paper.

Parameter ranges:

q = [1, 9.1] \(\chi_{1z}, \chi_{2z}\) = [-0.91, 0.91]

OR

q = [1, 10.1] \(\chi_{1z}, \chi_{2z}\) = [-0.81, 0.81]

Training parameter ranges:

q = [1, 8] \(\chi_{1z}, \chi_{2z}\) = [-0.81, 0.81]

But extrapolates reasonably to the above mass ratios and spins. However, if a guarantee of accuracy is required, this model should be used within the training parameter range.
