contents This article attempts to summarize the effort by the particle physics community in addressing the tedious work of determining the parameter spaces of beyond-the-standard-model (BSM) scenarios, allowed by data. These spaces, typically associated with a large number of dimensions, especially in the presence of nuisance parameters, suffer from the curse of dimensionality and thus render naive sampling of any kind -- even the computationally inexpensive ones -- ineffective. Over the years, various new sampling (from variations of Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) to dynamic nested sampling) and machine learning (ML) algorithms have been adopted by the community to alleviate this issue. If not all, we discuss potentially the most important among them and the significance of their results, in detail.
