Claim One:
1. A computer-implemented 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 a plurality of value sets to the patient using the medical implant system; receiving patient feedback in response to the presented signals processed by the plurality of value sets; selecting, based on the patient feedback, one or more of the value sets; storing information, based on patient feedback, regarding one or more value sets that are to be excluded; and generating, via a computer, one or more successive generations of value sets using said selected one or more value sets; wherein said stored information is used to exclude one or more value sets from said successive generations; and providing said determined value set to said medical implant system for use in providing stimulation to the patient.
