Abstract
Humans and other animals are driven to acquire information about opportunities in their environments, yet how they evaluate what is worth learning remains unclear. Here we combine artificial neural networks with symbolic regression to extract an expressive yet interpretable model that specifies how human participants evaluate decision-relevant information during choice. The recovered function depends primarily on the relative evidence accumulated across options rather than absolute uncertainty about each, revealing that participants seek information symmetry across alternatives rather than minimizing uncertainty option by option. This account outperforms standard models of uncertainty-based exploration and generalizes to an independent dataset. Using ultrahigh-field (7T) functional magnetic resonance imaging optimized for midbrain and brainstem, we simultaneously measured activity across five neuromodulatory nuclei and two cortical regions. Ventral tegmental area activity showed opposed coding of information and selection values, a pattern suited to arbitrating between sampling and choosing, and anterior cingulate cortex and anterior insula tracked value-of-information computations.

- 27 September 2026: the link answers (HTTP 200)
Code availability
All analysis and modeling code is available via GitHub at https://
Reproduced under the paper's license (CC BY), from the paper cited above.
Tracing map
Proposed by the machine: these links were found in the paper and verified at the source, without human review. The map will receive a Zenodo DOI once one of the paper's authors has validated it with their ORCID.
What the map holds:
- 2 repositories of the authors' code, each at its verified commit, with its license and how the link was found in the paper;
- 139 scripts, each with its path and the digest of its content;
- 17 matches between paragraphs of the paper and lines of the code (method lexical-v1);
- neither the text of the paper nor the code itself.
Its JSON (tracing-map.json) is deposited on Zenodo with its DOI once the map is validated.
Data
No dataset and no data link were found in the paper.
Data availability
All behavioral and neuroimaging data supporting the findings of this study are available via GitHub at https://
Reproduced under the paper's license (CC BY), from the paper cited above.
Versions
The history of this record: each version stored by the harvester or made by a correction of its authors or of the maintainers of its code, and what changed in its facts. The texts of the paper (its abstract, its availability statements) are not part of it; versions that changed only those are not listed.

Contribute
The authors of this paper can claim it, correct its record and validate its tracing map, and the maintainers of its code (its owner, or a public member of its organization) correct what it says of their repository; anyone signed in can ask for its removal. Every request goes to OSCR's own machine, which answers it; your account page follows them.
Sign in with ORCID to claim this paper as one of its authors, correct its record or validate its tracing map: when the paper's metadata lists your ORCID iD, you are recognized at once. Maintainers of its code: sign in with GitHub, then claim the repository on your account page.

Correct its record
Say what each link of this record is, remove the ones that are not the paper's, add the ones that are missing. The correction becomes a new version of the record, in its Versions section.
Validate its tracing map
You validate the map as this page shows it: 2 repositories of the authors' code, each at its verified commit and with its license, 139 scripts, and 17 matches between paragraphs and code (see the Code and Map sections). It then receives a DOI on Zenodo, with you (your ORCID iD) and OSCR as its creators; the code itself is not deposited.
The map's fingerprint: sha256:e1744d85ad6d57fb…
Add the badge to its README
The badge links the code to this page. Copy one of these into the README of the paper's code: only you decide where it goes, and nothing is changed for you.
Markdown
[, paste the snippet at the top, then “Commit changes…” and, to review it first, “Create a new branch and start a pull request”. You open the pull request; OSCR asks for no permission.
Request its removal
To ask OSCR to remove this record, the copies of its authors' scripts or its tracing map, use the removal request page: signed in, you say who you are, what to remove and why, then review and confirm the request. Published rules decide every request (how).
Discussion, reproductions, activity
Discussion: questions and error reports about this paper and its code, from signed-in readers and its authors. It opens with sign-in.
Reproductions: reports from readers who ran the authors' code: what they reproduced, with which environment, commit and data. It opens with sign-in.
