Machine learning in bioprocess development: From promise to practice (2210.02200v1)

Abstract: Fostered by novel analytical techniques, digitalization and automation, modern bioprocess development provides high amounts of heterogeneous experimental data, containing valuable process information. In this context, data-driven methods like ML approaches have a high potential to rationally explore large design spaces while exploiting experimental facilities most efficiently. The aim of this review is to demonstrate how ML methods have been applied so far in bioprocess development, especially in strain engineering and selection, bioprocess optimization, scale-up, monitoring and control of bioprocesses. For each topic, we will highlight successful application cases, current challenges and point out domains that can potentially benefit from technology transfer and further progress in the field of ML.
