Abstract
Disclosed is a system for stimulation of a subject. The stimulation may be to provide therapy to treat the subject. Stimulation may be of selected muscle groups and/or portions.
Claims24
A method for activating a lingual muscle of a subject, comprising:
- recalling at a first time a set of parameters for activating a lingual muscle in a population based on a first set of data regarding the population;
- comparing the first set of data and a second set of data regarding the subject;
- selecting at least one parameter from the recalled set of parameters based on the comparison of the first set of data and the second set of data regarding the subject;
- receiving a signal regarding the subject during a stimulation of the subject at a first time;
- and
- evaluating a first efficacy of the stimulation at the first time based on a machine learning algorithm.

A method for selecting a parameter for activating a lingual muscle of a subject, comprising:
- recalling at a first time a set of parameters for activating a lingual muscle in a population, the first set of parameters based on a first set of data regarding the population;
- comparing the first set of data and a second set of data regarding a subject therapy parameter the subject;
- selecting a first parameter from the recalled set of parameters based on the comparison of the first set of data and the second set of data;
- operating a processor system to:
- receive a signal regarding the subject therapy parameter of the subject during a stimulation of the subject at the first time with the selected first parameter;
- and
- determine a first efficacy of the stimulation at the first time by evaluating the subject therapy parameter with a machine learning algorithm regarding a first efficacy of therapy for the subject;
- compare the first efficacy to a threshold efficacy;
- output a comparison value based on the compared first efficacy to the threshold efficacy.

A system for selecting a parameter for activating a lingual muscle of a subject, comprising:
- a memory system to store a first time a set of parameters for activating a lingual muscle in a population, the first set of parameters based on a first set of data regarding the population;
- and
- a processor system configured to execute instructions to:
- compare the first set of data and a second set of data regarding a subject therapy parameter the subject;
- select a first parameter from the recalled set of parameters based on the comparison of the first set of data and the second set of data;
- receive a signal regarding the subject therapy parameter of the subject during a stimulation of the subject at the first time with the selected first parameter;
- and
- determine a first efficacy of the stimulation at the first time by evaluating the subject therapy parameter with a machine learning algorithm regarding a first efficacy of therapy for the subject;
- compare the first efficacy to a threshold efficacy;
- and
- output a comparison value based on the compared first efficacy to the threshold efficacy.
