Electrode Stimulation
The proposed adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) pipeline offers a closed-loop system for dynamic and precise intervention. It begins with Local Field Potential (LFP) recording as the primary observation, which is then processed for biomarker extraction. This feedback informs a Benchmarked RL Model, providing state and reward signals. An Adaptive DBS Controller determines the optimal action (stimulation parameters), which is then applied via Electrode Stimulation to the Brain Model, completing the feedback loop and continuously adapting to the patient's neurological state.

A comprehensive review of existing Parkinson's Disease models reveals that many previous approaches simplify critical physiological attributes. As shown, our proposed environment ("OURS") significantly expands the breadth of covered features, including spatial dimensions, directional and partial stimulation/observation, multiple contacts, beta-locus location, beta-bursting distribution and modulation, various forms of drift (electrode, neural), noisy observations, other frequencies, HF-DBS peak suppression, non-stationary dynamics, and chaotic behavior. This detailed feature set allows for an unprecedented level of realism and robustness in training adaptive DBS algorithms.
Impact on DBS Algorithm Development
The introduction of a neurophysiologically realistic benchmark environment for Adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation (aDBS) in Parkinson's Disease marks a significant leap forward. By capturing 15 previously dismissed physiological attributes, such as signal instabilities, neural drift, and electrode conductance changes, this framework offers an unparalleled training ground for deep reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms. This realism allows for the development and validation of aDBS control strategies that are robust against real-world environmental drifts and patient variability, which were previously overlooked by simplified synthetic models. The ability to simulate complex basal ganglia circuit dynamics and pathological oscillations, alongside spatial and temporal features, enables ML engineers to optimize neurostimulation interfaces more effectively. This structured environment bridges the gap between theoretical models and clinical relevance, paving the way for more adaptive, interpretable, and generalized aDBS systems across diverse neurological disorders.
