The eardrum
The eardrum
The eardrum is a part of the outer ear and consists mainly of cartilage and helps more sound waves get into the ear.
What do the ossicles do?
What do the ossicles do?
The ossicles in the middle ear transfers the vibrations through the ossicles (malleus, incus and stapes) which are located in the tympanic cavity, directly above the Eustachian tube.
The inner ear
The inner ear
The equilibrium organ and the cochlea together form the inner ear. Hair cells in the cochlea convert the vibrations into electrical signals, which are passed on to him via the auditory nerve.

Study Notes
Electromagnetic Properties of Minerals
- Electromagnetic properties determine how minerals interact with electric and magnetic fields, and electromagnetic radiation.
- They are useful for mineral identification and understanding mineral behavior.
- These properties include di- and para-magnetism, ferro-, ferri- and anti-ferromagnetism, piezoelectricity, pyroelectricity, ferroelectricity, electrical conductivity, and dielectric properties.
Magnetism
- Electrons behave as tiny magnets due to their orbital motion and spin.
- Electron spin is the stronger magnetic effect.
- Two electrons in the same orbital have opposite spins, canceling their magnetic moments.
- Atoms with unpaired electrons can have a net magnetic moment.
- Macroscopic magnetic properties depend on how these moments interact.
Diamagnetism
- Diamagnetism results from the repelling effect of a magnetic field on the electron clouds of atoms/ions.
- It is present in all materials, but very weak.
- Diamagnetism is observed only if stronger forms of magnetism are absent.
Paramagnetism
- Paramagnetism occurs in materials with unpaired electrons that do not interact.
- Magnetic moments of unpaired electrons align parallel to an external magnetic field, enhancing it.
- Alignment is lost when the field is removed due to thermal agitation.
Ferromagnetism
- In ferromagnets, unpaired electrons interact, aligning parallel even without an external field within magnetic domains.
- Applying an external field causes domains aligned with the field to grow.
- Some alignment is retained when the field is removed, resulting in a permanent magnet.
Ferrimagnetism
- In ferrimagnetism, magnetic moments align anti-parallel, but are unequal, resulting in a net magnetic moment.
Anti-ferromagnetism
- Anti-ferromagnetism is similar to ferrimagnetism, but magnetic moments are equal and opposite, resulting in no net magnetic moment.
Magnetism Summary
Type | Unpaired Electrons | Interaction | Alignment to Field | Retain Magnetism |
---|---|---|---|---|
Diamagnetism | Yes | No | Anti-parallel | No |
Paramagnetism | Yes | No | Parallel | No |
Ferromagnetism | Yes | Yes | Parallel | Yes |
Ferrimagnetism | Yes | Yes | Anti-parallel | Yes |
Anti-ferromagnetism | Yes | Yes | Anti-parallel | No |
Electrical Properties
Piezoelectricity
- Piezoelectricity is the ability of some minerals to generate an electrical potential when subjected to mechanical stress.
- Ion displacement in the crystal structure creates a dipole moment.
- Applying an electric field causes the crystal to deform, the effect is reversible.
- Examples: Quartz, Tourmaline.
Pyroelectricity
- Pyroelectricity is the ability of some minerals to generate an electrical potential when heated or cooled.
- Temperature change alters atom positions in the crystal structure, creates a dipole moment.
- Pyroelectric minerals have a polar axis and are also piezoelectric.
- Example: Tourmaline.
Ferroelectricity
- Ferroelectricity is the ability of some minerals to exhibit a spontaneous electric polarization.
- This polarization is reversible by applying an external electric field.
- Ferroelectric minerals are polar, pyroelectric, and piezoelectric.
- Example: Barium Titanate.
Electrical Conductivity
- Electrical conductivity is the ability of a material to conduct electricity.
- Conductivity depends on mobile charge carriers and their ease of movement.
- Metals: high conductivity due to free electrons.
- Semiconductors: intermediate conductivity, controlled by temperature and impurities.
- Insulators: low conductivity due to lack of free charge carriers.
Dielectric Properties
- Dielectric properties describe how a material stores electrical energy when subjected to an electric field.
- Material polarization reduces the electric field inside the material.
- The dielectric constant measures how much a material reduces the electric field compared to a vacuum.

Fundamental Theorem of Calculus Part 1
- If $g(x) = \int_{a}^{x} f(t) dt$, then $g'(x) = f(x)$.
- The derivative of an integral is the original function.
Fundamental Theorem of Calculus Part 2
- $\int_{a}^{b} F'(x) dx = F(b) - F(a)$
- The integral of a derivative is the original function evaluated at the bounds.
- To evaluate a definite integral: Find the antiderivative, plug in the upper bound, plug in the lower bound, and subtract.
Derivatives of Integrals - Examples
- Find the derivative of $g(x) = \int_{1}^{x} (t^2 + 1) dt$
- $g'(x) = x^2 + 1$
- Find the derivative of $g(x) = \int_{1}^{x^3} (t^2 + 1) dt$
- $g'(x) = ((x^3)^2 + 1) \cdot 3x^2 = (x^6 + 1) \cdot 3x^2 = 3x^8 + 3x^2$
- Find the derivative of $g(x) = \int_{x^2}^{x^3} (t^2 + 1) dt$
- Use properties of integrals to write the integral as $g(x) = \int_{x^2}^{0} (t^2 + 1) dt + \int_{0}^{x^3} (t^2 + 1) dt$ .
- Rewrite as $g(x) = -\int_{0}^{x^2} (t^2 + 1) dt + \int_{0}^{x^3} (t^2 + 1) dt$.
- Then $g'(x) = -(x^4 + 1) \cdot 2x + (x^6 + 1) \cdot 3x^2 = -2x^5 - 2x + 3x^8 + 3x^2 = 3x^8 - 2x^5 + 3x^2 - 2x$

- Mechanism Design without money
Todays Game Theory Topic
- Mechanism Design with money (Auctions)
Single Item Auctions
- One seller, one item
- $n$ bidders. Bidder $i$ has valuation $v_i$
- Sealed bid auctions:
- Each bidder submits bid $b_i$ to auctioneer
- Based on bids $(b_1, \dots, b_n)$, auctioneer determines:
- Allocation rule: Which bidder gets the item?
- $x_i(b_1, \dots, b_n) \in {0, 1}$
- $\sum_i x_i(b_1, \dots, b_n) \leq 1$
- Payment rule: How much does each bidder pay?
- $p_i(b_1, \dots, b_n) \geq 0$
- Allocation rule: Which bidder gets the item?
Auction Goals
- Efficiency: Allocate item to bidder with highest valuation.
- Maximize $\sum_i v_i x_i(b_1, \dots, b_n)$
- Revenue Maximization: Seller wants to maximize revenue
- Maximize $\sum_i p_i(b_1, \dots, b_n)$
- Truthfulness: Bidders should bid their true valuation
- Bidding truthfully should maximize bidder's utility
Auction Truthfulness
- Quasilinear utility: $v_i x_i - p_i$
- A mechanism is truthful or incentive compatible if for every bidder $i$ and every possible set of bids by other bidders $b_{-i}$, bidding truthfully $b_i = v_i$ maximizes bidder i's utility.
- $v_i x_i(v_i, b_{-i}) - p_i(v_i, b_{-i}) \geq v_i x_i(b_i, b_{-i}) - p_i(b_i, b_{-i}) ; \forall b_i$
List of Common Actions
- First Price Auction:
- Allocation rule: Item goes to highest bidder
- Payment rule: Winner pays their bid
- Second Price Auction:
- Allocation rule: Item goes to highest bidder
- Payment rule: Winner pays second highest bid
- All Pay Auction:
- Allocation rule: Item goes to highest bidder
- Payment rule: Everyone pays their bid
Which Actions are Truthful?
- First Price Auction: Not truthful. Bidding true valuation is not a Nash Equilibrium.
- Second Price Auction: Truthful!
- All Pay Auction: Not Truthful.
Why Second Price Auction is Truthful
- Vickrey Auction
- Theorem: Second Price Auction is truthful
- Proof:
- Fix $i$ and $b_{-i}$. Let $b' = \max_{j \neq i} b_j$.
- Case 1: $v_i > b'$
- If $b_i > b'$, then $i$ wins and pays $b'$. Utility $= v_i - b' > 0$
- If $b_i < b'$, then $i$ loses and pays 0. Utility $= 0$
- So bidding $b_i > b'$ is optimal
- Case 2: $v_i < b'$
- If $b_i > b'$, then $i$ wins and pays $b'$. Utility $= v_i - b' < 0$
- If $b_i < b'$, then $i$ loses and pays 0. Utility $= 0$
- So bidding $b_i < b'$ is optimal
- Case 3: $v_i = b'$
- $i$ is indifferent between winning and losing
- So bidding $b_i = v_i$ is optimal!
- Proof:
Auctions Theorems
- Theorem: There is no truthful auction that maximizes revenue.
- Proof:
- Consider single bidder. Want to sell item to bidder if $v_i \geq x$.
- If auction is truthful, then bidder with valuation $x$ must have utility 0.
- So they must pay $x$ if they win.
- But then seller gets 0 revenue if $v_i < x$.
- Proof:
Auction - VCG
- Vickrey-Clarke-Groves (VCG) Auction
- Mechanism for general setting where we want to maximize social welfare.
- $n$ bidders
- Set of possible outcomes $O$.
- Bidder $i$ has valuation $v_i(o)$ for outcome $o \in O$
- Mechanism asks bidders to submit bids $b_i(o)$ for each outcome $o \in O$
- Allocation Rule: Choose outcome $o^*$ that maximizes $\sum_i b_i(o)$
- $o^* = \arg \max_{o \in O} \sum_i b_i(o)$
- Payment Rule: Bidder $i$ pays
- $p_i = \max_{o \in O} \sum_{j \neq i} b_j(o) - \sum_{j \neq i} b_j(o^*)$
- Mechanism for general setting where we want to maximize social welfare.
VCG
- Bidder $i$'s utility is
- $v_i(o^) - p_i = v_i(o^) + \sum_{j \neq i} b_j(o^*) - \max_{o \in O} \sum_{j \neq i} b_j(o)$
- Bidding truthfully means $b_i(o) = v_i(o)$. So bidder $i$'s utility is:
- $v_i(o^) + \sum_{j \neq i} v_j(o^) - \max_{o \in O} \sum_{j \neq i} v_j(o)$
- But $o^*$ maximizes $\sum_i v_i(o) = v_i(o) + \sum_{j \neq i} v_j(o)$.
- So bidder $i$ cannot increase their utility by misreporting their valuation!
VCG Examples
- Single item auction:
- Outcome is who gets the item
- $v_i(o) = v_i$ if $i$ gets the item, 0 otherwise
- VCG auction is second price auction!
- Combinatorial Auction:
- $m$ items for sale
- Bidder $i$ wants a subset $S_i$ of items
- $v_i(o) = v_i$ if $i$ gets $S_i$, 0 otherwise
- VCG auction is computationally hard!
VCG Limitations
- Not always revenue maximizing
- Not budget balanced:
- $\sum_i p_i$ can be negative!
- Auctioneer has to pay bidders!
- Susceptible to collusion:
- Bidders can collude to lower their payments
Mechanism Design without Complete Knowledge
- Bayesian Mechanism Design
- Each bidder has a prior distribution over their possible valuations
- Mechanism designer knows these prior distributions
- Goal: Design a mechanism that maximizes expected revenue
- Prior-Independent Mechanism Design
- Mechanism designer does not know the prior distributions
- Goal: Design a mechanism that performs well regardless of the prior distributions
- Learning-Based Mechanism Design
- Mechanism designer learns the prior distributions from data
- Goal: Design a mechanism that maximizes expected revenue based on the learned prior distributions

- $H$ est un hyperplan de $E \Longleftrightarrow \exists f \in \mathscr{L}(E, \mathbb{K})$ telle que $H = \operatorname{Ker}(f)$.
- $H$ est le noyau d'une forme linéaire.
- Soit $H$ un hyperplan de $E$. Alors $H$ est un sev maximal de $E$, c'est-Ã -dire que si $H \subset F \subset E$ avec $F$ un sev de $E$, alors $F = H$ ou $F = E$.
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs)
Introduction
- CNNs are effective for computer vision tasks like image classification, object detection, and facial recognition.
Convolutional Layers
- Convolutional layers are the core of CNNs, applying filters to the input image.
- Each filter learns weights during training and slides over the input, performing a convolution operation.
- The convolution operation calculates the dot product between filter weights and the input region.
- The output is a feature map that emphasizes important features.
Pooling Layers
- Pooling layers reduce the dimensionality of feature maps.
- It reduces the number of parameters and avoids overfitting.
- It makes the network robust to variations in object position and size.
- Max pooling selects the maximum value in each region of the feature map.
- Average pooling calculates the average value in each region.
Fully Connected Layers
- Fully connected layers perform the final classification.
- They take the output of convolutional and pooling layers and feed it to a traditional neural network.
- The neural network learns to assign the extracted features to different classes.
CNN Architecture Example
- Input Image -> Convolutional Layer -> Pooling Layer -> Convolutional Layer -> Pooling Layer -> Fully Connected Layer -> Output
- CNNs transform the image into feature maps that highlight important patterns.
Advantages of CNNs
- They learn complex features from input images.
- They are robust to variations in object position and size.
- They are efficient in terms of the number of parameters.
Disadvantages of CNNs
- They can be computationally expensive to train.
- They can be prone to overfitting if not trained correctly.
