Objective: Percutaneous electrical stimulation of the auricular vagus nerve (pVNS) is an electroceutical technology. The selection of stimulation patterns is empirical, which may lead to under-stimulation or over-stimulation. The objective is to assess the efficiency of different stimulation patterns with respect to individual perception and to compare it with numerical data based on in-silico ear models.
