• Abstract: The present study introduces an innovative approach to the synthesis of Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals by integrating diffusion models with reinforcement learning. This integration addresses key challenges associated with traditional EEG data acquisition, including participant burden, privacy concerns, and the financial costs of obtaining high-fidelity clinical data. Our methodology enhances the generation of EEG signals with detailed temporal and spectral features, enriching the authenticity and diversity of synthetic datasets. The uniqueness of our approach lies in its capacity to concurrently model time-domain characteristics, such as waveform morphology, and frequency-domain features, including rhythmic brainwave patterns, within a cohesive generative framework. This is executed through the reinforcement learning model's autonomous selection of parameter update strategies, which steers the diffusion process to accurately reflect the complex dynamics inherent in EEG signals. We validate the efficacy of our approach using both the BCI Competition IV 2a dataset and a proprietary dataset, each collected under stringent experimental conditions. Our results indicate that the method preserves participant privacy by generating synthetic data that lacks biometric identifiers and concurrently improves the efficiency of model training by minimizing reliance on large annotated datasets. This research offers dual contributions: firstly, it advances EEG research by providing a novel tool for data augmentation and the advancement of machine learning algorithms; secondly, it enhances brain-computer interface technologies by offering a robust solution for training models on diverse and representative EEG datasets. Collectively, this study establishes a foundation for future investigations in neurological care and the development of tailored treatment protocols in neurorehabilitation.
