Abstract
Systems and methods for programming multi-electrode neuromodulation systems, with applications for at least deep brain stimulation (DBS) therapy. One or more configurations can be generated and presented to a user for selection. The selected configurations can be settings for programming a pulse generator. The one or more configurations can be Pareto optimal in terms of one or more objective values and can be generated using a particle swarm optimization. The generated configurations can be visualized on a Pareto front for user selection. Objective values can include minimizing power use, maximizing activation of neural pathways and/or regions of interest, minimizing activation of neural pathways and or regions of avoidance, and maximizing or minimizing the distance to sources of sensed functional data.
