A system and a method of constructing a personalized or patient specific neural stimulation model. The method includes measuring an electro-physiology signal of an individual and establishing a personalized or patient specific neural stimulation model that has a preset model parameter and generates a human physiology parameter according to the model parameters; and analyzing the human physiology parameters and regulating the model parameters according to a parameter-optimizing algorithm, such that the human physiology parameters outputted by the personalized or patient specific neural stimulation model matches the measured electro-physiology signal.

A parameter adjustment device and method thereof for a stimulator is disclosed. The parameter adjustment device comprises a generation unit, a user interface and a process unit. The generation unit generates a test MAP based on a current MAP. The user interface displays the current MAP and the test MAP for choosing one of them as the preferred MAP, and displays a major and a minor for choosing again, the major and the minor is defined as a significant difference and a little difference between the test MAP and the current MAP respectively. The process unit computes the acceptance probability of the preferred MAP based on a major or minor probability correspondence relationship and determines a next MAP by comparing the acceptance probability with the test probability. When one of the termination conditions is satisfied in an iterative operation, the next MAP is outputted as the best MAP.

摘要:
An apparatus and method for controlling an electrical stimulation system to increase the resolution of the stimulation region with multiple independent power source electrodes is proposed. In the apparatus, the electrode set contains at least three electrodes of which two adjacent electrodes are of the same power polarity to control the location of the composite stimulation signal and the others are of an inverse power polarity to balance the total power polarity and narrow the stimulation region. The method for the apparatus comprises steps of: receiving a target stimulation location and level, generating at least one parameter to adjust power settings of the electrodes, thereby obtaining a composite stimulation signal corresponding to a virtual channel of which a location and level match the target stimulation location and level.

Electrical stimulation system and method for generating virtual channels are disclosed. The electrical stimulation system comprises: an electrode controller, a carrier, a plurality of electrode units, and a buffer layer. The electrode units are disposed on the carrier, and each of the electrode units are electrically connected to the electrode controller independently. Besides, the electrode units and the carrier are covered with the buffer layer. When the electrode controller receive a control signal and drive the corresponding electrode units, the electrical currents output from the corresponding electrode units can electrically interfere with each other to generate a virtual channel between the corresponding electrode units.
