YaleCourses

Yale"s philosophy of teaching and learning begins with the aim of training a broadly based, highly disciplined intellect without specifying in advance how that intellect will be used. The Yale Courses channel provides entry into the core of the University--its classrooms and academic programs--including complete sets of lectures from the Open Yale Courses initiative. Complementary syllabi, transcripts, and other resources may also be accessed from the Open Yale Courses website listed

2026/08/26

Introduction to Ancient Greek History (CLCV 205)In this lecture, Professor Kagan focuses on the causes of the Peloponnesian War and the possible motivations for Thucydides' book, The History of the Peloponnesian War. Concerning the first point, Professor Kagan parts ways with Thucydides and argues that the war was not inevitable and that the Athenians under Pericles followed a policy of deterrence, which was aimed at peace. Similarly, he points out that there were a number of Spartans who did not

17. Backward induction: ultimatums and bargaining

YaleCourses ·

2026/08/26

Game Theory (ECON 159)We develop a simple model of bargaining, starting from an ultimatum game (one person makes the other a take it or leave it offer), and building up to alternating offer bargaining (where players can make counter-offers). On the way, we introduce discounting: a dollar tomorrow is worth less than a dollar today. We learn that, if players are equally patient, if offers can be in rapid succession, and if each side knows how much the game is worth to the other side, then the first

YaleCourses ·

2026/08/26

Game Theory (ECON 159)We analyze three games using our new solution concept, subgame perfect equilibrium (SPE). The first game involves players' trusting that others will not make mistakes. It has three Nash equilibria but only one is consistent with backward induction. We show the other two Nash equilibria are not subgame perfect: each fails to induce Nash in a subgame. The second game involves a matchmaker sending a couple on a date. There are three Nash equilibria in the dating subgame. We

How do we make critical decisions from data, especially when mistakes can be costly? In this lesson, we delve into the fundamental problem of signal detection, exploring its origins in radar and its vital applications in medical software, such as cancer screening. We'll uncover the delicate balance between false positives and false negatives, understand the concepts of sensitivity and specificity, and learn how Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves and Area Under the Curve (AUC) are used to

In this lesson, we delve into the critical process of deploying medical software, moving it from development to the end-user environment. We explore why planning for deployment must begin at the project's inception, addressing challenges like mobile app store gatekeepers. Key steps include ensuring software verification, finalizing documentation, identifying potential anomalies, and establishing repeatable delivery and installation procedures. The discussion also covers essential user training,

YaleCourses ·

2026/08/25

Introduction to Ancient Greek History (CLCV 205)In this lecture, Professor Kagan describes the mechanics of the Delian League and its transformation into the Athenian empire. This transformation caused Athens to rival Sparta as an equal in power and prestige. He also argues that this process took place rather smoothly due to the good relations between Sparta and Athens. Professor Kagan argues that Cimon the Athenian generally played an important part in this development. Finally, Professor Kagan

Have you ever wondered how we predict the likelihood of events in complex medical scenarios? In this lesson, we delve into the critical statistical procedure of estimating probability density functions. We'll explore the necessity of using large, representative samples, the role of prior knowledge, and the fundamental differences between parametric and non-parametric estimation methods to ensure accurate predictions and reliable clinical trial results.🎯 Learning Objectives• Understand the process

YaleCourses ·

2026/08/25

Game Theory (ECON 159)We consider games that have both simultaneous and sequential components, combining ideas from before and after the midterm. We represent what a player does not know within a game using an information set: a collection of nodes among which the player cannot distinguish. This lets us define games of imperfect information; and also lets us formally define subgames. We then extend our definition of a strategy to imperfect information games, and use this to construct the normal form

2026/08/25

Introduction to Ancient Greek History (CLCV 205)In this lecture, Professor Kagan addresses what scholars call the Homeric question. He asks: what society do Homer's poems describe? He argues that in view of the long oral transmission of the poems, the poems of Homer probably reflect various ages from the Mycenaean world to the Dark Ages. More importantly, close scrutiny of the poems will yield historical information for the historian. In this way, one is able to reconstruct through the poems, to a

Milton (ENGL 220)In this second lecture on Paradise Regained, the three temptations are examined and Milton's unusual departure from their account in the Gospel of Luke is discussed. The poem's tacit assertion of the superiority of knowledge and ethics over action is probed. Considerable time is spent examining the Son's rejection of classical literature. Finally, Book Four's allusion to the riddle of the sphinx serves as a springboard to a consideration of the poem's Oedipal elements.00:00 -

2026/08/25

Game Theory (ECON 159)We apply the idea of evolutionary stability to consider the evolution of social conventions. Then we consider games that involve aggressive (Hawk) and passive (Dove) strategies, finding that sometimes, evolutionary populations are mixed. We discuss how such games can help us to predict how behavior might vary across settings. Finally, we consider a game in which there is no evolutionary stable population and discuss an example from nature.00:00 - Chapter 1. Monomorphic and

Have you ever wondered what 'statistically significant' truly means in a clinical trial? In this lesson, we demystify this critical concept, differentiating it from real-world clinical importance. We'll explore the foundational mathematical techniques useful for designing and interpreting clinical trials, including the process of hypothesis testing, the role of p-values, the t-test, and how sample size influences our conclusions. We'll also examine the historical context of the p 0.05 threshold

2026/08/25

Game Theory (ECON 159)We apply the main idea from last time, iterative deletion of dominated strategies, to analyze an election where candidates can choose their policy positions. We then consider how good is this classic model as a description of the real political process, and how we might build on it to improve it. Toward the end of the class, we introduce a new idea to get us beyond iterative deletion. We think about our beliefs about what the other player is going to do, and then ask what is
