Researchers have developed a new method using Bayesian optimization to automatically determine when to stop inelastic neutron-scattering experiments. This strategy aims to improve efficiency by preventing excessive data collection beyond equipment resolution, thereby saving valuable beam time. The proposed technique calculates a stopping criterion, and experiments are terminated when optimal bin widths become smaller than target resolutions. Numerical experiments showed that this Bayesian optimization approach can reduce search costs significantly compared to exhaustive methods. AI
