- Abstract: Bayesian optimization has become widely popular across various experimental sciences due to its favorable attributes: it can handle noisy data, perform well with relatively small datasets, and provide adaptive suggestions for sequential experimentation. While still in its infancy, Bayesian optimization has recently gained traction in bioprocess engineering. However, experimentation with biological systems is highly complex and the resulting experimental uncertainty requires specific extensions to classical Bayesian optimization. Moreover, current literature often targets readers with a strong statistical background, limiting its accessibility for practitioners. In light of these developments, this review has two aims: first, to provide an intuitive and practical introduction to Bayesian optimization; and second, to outline promising application areas and open algorithmic challenges, thereby highlighting opportunities for future research in machine learning.

optimizing discrete black-box functions is key in several domains, e.g. protein engineering and drug design.
We develop a unified framework to test a vast array of high-dimensional Bayesian optimization methods and a collection of standardized black-box functions.
These two components of the benchmark are each supported by flexible, scalable, and easily extendable software libraries.

We re-introduce the human back into the data-driven decision making loop by outlining an approach for collaborative Bayesian optimization.
Our methodology exploits the hypothesis that humans are more efficient at making discrete choices rather than continuous ones.
We demonstrate our approach across a number of applied and numerical case studies including bioprocess optimization and reactor geometry design.

In this work we rigorously analyse conventional and non-conventional assumptions inherent to Bayesian optimisation.
We conclude that the majority of hyper- parameter tuning tasks exhibit heteroscedasticity and non-stationarity.
We hope these findings may serve as guiding principles, both for practitioners and for further research in the field.
