Abstract
A system includes processing circuitry configured to determine, for each electrode combination of a plurality of electrode combinations, a metric based on a sensed electrical signal from the electrode combination. The processing circuitry is further configured to determine, for each electrode of a plurality of electrodes, a subset of electrode combinations of the plurality of electrode combinations, each electrode combination of the subset of electrode combinations comprising the electrode, wherein the subset of electrode combinations comprises at least two electrode combinations. The processing circuitry is further configured to determine, for each electrode of the plurality of electrodes, a composite metric based on the metrics of the subset of electrode combinations. The processing circuitry is further configured to determine, select, based on the composite metrics of the plurality of electrodes, at least one electrode for at least one of sensing electrical signals or delivering electrical stimulation.
