Dryer appliance with adaptive cycle parameters

A dryer appliance comprising:

• a cabinet;
• a drum rotatably mounted within the cabinet, the drum defining a chamber for receipt of articles for drying;
• a heating system fluidly coupled to the drum whereby heated air flows from the heating system to the chamber of the drum for drying of articles within the chamber;
• and
• a controller, the controller configured for:
• performing a first sensor cycle of the dryer appliance, the first sensor cycle comprising rotating the drum of the dryer appliance and activating the heating system of the dryer appliance according to a first set of cycle parameters;
• detecting one or more user interactions with the dryer appliance;
• inferring from the one or more detected user interactions that the performance of the first sensor cycle was unsatisfactory;
• defining a second set of cycle parameters in response to the one or more detected user interactions;
• and
• performing a second sensor dry cycle of the dryer appliance according to the second set of cycle parameters after the first sensor cycle,
• wherein the one or more detected user interactions comprises opening a door of the dryer appliance prior to completion of the first sensor cycle and without running another cycle of the dryer appliance within a time threshold after opening the door.
