This summary is a combination of the slides, my personal notes and sometimes extra information taken from the book in order to have a more in depth understanding. I watched every class recording twice in order to get every information needed and especially the explanation of the graphs since the professors goes quite fast on that

This summary is a combination of the slides, my personal notes (with examples to understand the concepts better and pictures). It easy to learn since there are pictures, bullet points and different colour codes for the name of authors and examples. Good luck!

In my year (2020-2021), the professor divided the exam in 3 main parts. For the first part he gave us a list of the examples seen in class that we have to know since he can ask us a couple and he expect you to give characteristic for every example. In this document you will find for each example at least 6 characteristics or more for each example. I made sure to also watch every class twice (via recordings) to not miss out on anything so this filled list is very complete!
