Bayesian optimisation: Using AI to choose your next experiment 

When chemists want to optimize a chemical reaction or a formulation, the most common method they use is “trial and error”.

This involves trying many combinations of parameters, chosen using chemistry knowledge and intuition, until the result meets their requirements. Each experiment brings new knowledge that is useful to design the next experiments.

However, trial and error is a slow methodology that it is limited to a few parameters because the number of experiments grows exponentially with the number of parameters, often fails to yield satisfactory results, and can trap chemists in a “local optimum” from where it is difficult to improve.
