Hippocampal ripples help determine which unvisited options to learn, optimizing model-based learning.
Longer ripples signal higher priority for updating unexperienced paths, enhancing learning efficiency.
The study involved 34 epilepsy patients performing a reinforcement learning task with intracranial EEG recordings.
Hippocampal ripple-LFPC coordination correlates with more effective use of task structure and accurate value learning.
