  • Publication number: 20250010078
    Abstract: Described here are systems and methods for testing neurostimulation settings and measuring their effects on neural activity, which may then be used to select subject-specific neurostimulation settings. In general, the present disclosure provides systems and methods that utilize neural recordings to help determine the neurostimulation settings that maximally reduce a particular neural activity.

  • Publication number: 20240366945
    Abstract: Neurostimulation, such as electrical and/or magnetic neurostimulation, is controlled using an adaptive real-time state space (ARTISTS) control framework to determine and/or adjust stimulation settings (e.g., stimulation waveforms). The ARTISTS control framework generally includes an adaptive autoregressive model of the nervous system's response to stimulation, an amended Kalman filter to estimate the state and coefficients of the autoregressive model, and a linear quadratic regulator to determine the stimulation waveform to be delivered.

  • Publication number: 20240293677
    Abstract: A medical device is controlled based in part on a Bayesian preference learning-based optimization of the control parameters of the device. The Bayesian preference learning-based optimization is implemented to identify personalized optimal control parameters based on user preference for control parameter settings. The Bayesian preference learning-based optimization provides automatic tuning of the control parameters of the medical device based on feedback data, such as user response data, to achieve a user-specific therapy or effect.

  • Publication number: 20220387800
    Abstract: User-specific neurostimulation settings are efficiently determined and optimized based on an optimized set of population-based neurostimulation settings. The population data are clustered and a set of test settings for a new user are selected as settings that efficiently discriminate between the clusters. User preference of the test settings are used to map the user to a particular cluster of settings, which can be used to determine user-specific neurostimulation settings. The user-based settings can be iteratively updated and/or optimized using information from the population data, such as by using average preference score surfaces in the population data to identify and/or filter new test settings for the user.

  • Patent number: 11468144
    Abstract: Systems and methods for digital signal processing using a sliding windowed infinite Fourier transform (“SWIFT”) algorithm are described. A discrete-time Fourier transform (“DTFT”) of an input signal is computed over an infinite-length temporal window that is slid from one sample in the input signal to the next. The DTFT with the temporal window at a given sample point is effectively calculated by phase shifting and decaying the DTFT calculated when the temporal window was positioned at the previous sample point and adding the current sample to the result.

A discrete-time Fourier transform (“DTFT”) of an input signal is computed over an infinite-length temporal window that is slid from one sample in the input signal to the next. The DTFT with the temporal window at a given sample point is effectively calculated by phase shifting and decaying the DTFT calculated when the temporal window was positioned at the previous sample point and adding the current sample to the result. The SWIFT algorithms are stable and allow for improved computational efficiency, improved frequency resolution, improved sampling, reduced memory requirements, and reduced spectral leakage.
