A Human-in-the-Loop Bayesian Optimization Framework for Constraint-Aware Bioprocess Development

arXiv:2606.19230v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work presents an extension to Pareto Front Guided Sampling (PFGS), a Human-in-the-Loop (HitL) Bayesian Optimization (BO) framework in which Gaussian process (GP) surrogate-derived quantities are reformulated as objectives of a multi-objective optimization problem, and the resulting Pareto front is exposed to a domain expert for interactive candidate selection rather than returning a single automated recommendation. The framework is extended in two directions: constrained optimization is addressed by incorporating the posterior probability of

Why this matters
Why now

The increasing complexity and data intensiveness of bioprocess development, coupled with advances in AI like Bayesian optimization, necessitate more efficient and human-guided approaches.

Why it’s important

This development allows for faster, more reliable, and constrained-aware optimization of bioprocesses, critical for drug discovery, advanced materials, and sustainable manufacturing.

What changes

Bioprocess development transitions from purely automated or trial-and-error methods to intelligent, human-in-the-loop systems that can incorporate expert knowledge and real-world constraints.
