Claim One:
1. A method for at least partially fitting a medical implant system to a patient comprising: executing a genetic algorithm to select a determined value set comprising values for a plurality of fitting parameters, the genetic algorithm comprising: presenting signals processed by plurality of value sets to the patient using the medical implant system; receiving patient feedback in response to the presented signals processed by the value sets; selecting, based on the patient feedback, one or more of the value sets; generating a successive generation of value sets using said selected one or more value sets; selecting a mutation rate based on at least one of the value sets for the successive generation; and mutating at least a portion of at least one value set for the successive generation using the selected mutation rate; and providing said determined value set to said medical implant system for use in providing stimulation to the patient.
