arXiv:2610.07417v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Bayesian Optimization (BO) has become an established methodology for minimizing black-box functions of a vector input. Often, however, this parameter vector arises from the discretization of an inherently functional relationship. Several recent articles have considered the Functional Bayesian Optimization (FBO) setting, in which the variable to be optimized is not a member of a finite dimensional vector space, but rather an infinite dimensional f
