Music information retrieval techniques for determining the place of origin of the Czech chamber and orchestral music interpretations
Miklánek, Štěpán ; Mekyska, Jiří (referee) ; Kiska, Tomáš (advisor)
This diploma thesis is focused on the statistical analysis of chamber and orchestral classical music recordings composed by Czech authors. One of the chapters is dedicated to the description of a feature extraction process that precedes the statistical analysis. Techniques of Music Information Retrieval are used during several stages of this thesis. Databases used for analysis are described and pre-processing steps are proposed. A tool for synchronization of the recordings was implemented in MATLAB. Finally the system used for classification of recordings based on their geographical origin is proposed. The recordings are sorted by a binary classifier into two categories of Czech and world recordings. The first part of the statistical analysis is focused on individual analysis of features. The features are evaluated based on their discrimination strength. The second part of the statistical analysis is focused on feature selection, which can improve the overall accuracy of the binary classifier compared to the individual analysis of the features.

Player for iPhone for Educational Purposes
Klobása, Jiří ; Polok, Lukáš (referee) ; Beran, Vítězslav (advisor)
This thesis deals with the design and implementation of mobile application for iPhone that serves as a music player. The application works with meta-information to a music song and suggests their use in the process of memorization. The thesis is divided into chapters, starting with the characteristics of the target platform iOS, user interface design and its testing, principles of creating computer music and sound. The core of this thesis is to design a user interface along with the structure and use of meta-information related to a song. At the end of the thesis there is described the implementation of the application, the tests performed and possibilities for further improvements of the application.

Soundspce
Jandová, Eva ; Kopec, Jakub (referee) ; Vítek, Jiří (advisor)
The aim of this work is to research the relationships between abstract musical space and physical space, to explore the various possibilities of connecting sound, light and matter in space, their interaction and unfolding over time. The knowledge and outputs will later be applied in the design of a cultural object providing a visual and acoustic experience with an emphasis on human perception.

Zatloukalová, Veronika ; Marek, Jiří (referee) ; Šindlar, Jiljí (advisor)
The subject of this thesis is the design concept of the architectural study of a concert hall, namely the proposal for a "MUSIC SCENE" - the concert hall for the city of Brno. As part of this study is therefore designed a hall for 591 visitors. Hall enables performances to 90-member orchestra or choir. The solution is also operating and maintenance facilities necessary facilities like auditorium. The main emphasis was put on the acoustic solution, then the overall transparency in the operation of the building and the continuity of the building and the surrounding development mainly to the existing communication system that tries to respect.

History of audio carriers and transmission of sound
Šimarová, Lucie ; Krhutová, Milena (referee) ; Šedrlová, Magdalena (advisor)
Cílem této bakalářské práce je popsat vývoj zvukových nosičů. Tato bakalářská práce poskytuje náhled do historie a současnosti zvukových nosičů. Nejprve seznamuje čtenáře s teorií přenosu zvuku. Tato část je zaměřena na přenos vlnění a popisuje rozdíly mezi vlnami. Následně jsou probírány analogové a digitální způsoby záznamu zvuku. Hlavní část práce se věnuje uchovávání hudby. Nejprve se práce zabývá uchováním hudby před mechanickým záznamem, tato část zahrnuje notaci, tabulatury a automatofony. V další části je již popsán mechanický záznam zvuku, a to v analogové formě. Poslední kapitola je zaměřena na digitální záznam zvuku. V neposlední řadě práce obeznamuje čtenáře s kulturním a hudebním vlivem jednotlivých nosičů. Znalosti jsou nabyty z různých zdrojů, především z literatury.

Music as a public space - New concept of Brno Philharmonic
Macurová, Lenka ; Čapák, Bořivoj (referee) ; Rusín, Tomáš (advisor)
An assignment of diploma thesis was to design a concert hall for Brno Philharmonic. Ten years ago, an architectural competition was held to design Janáček cultural centre on a plot between the streets Veselá and Besední. The winning project was simplified and divided into two parts (underground parking and concert hall). My proposal is based on the planned parking, which finally begins to build in 2015. Shape of the house respects the surrounding buildings. My aim was create the building, which would be functional, urban, beautiful and more economical than the winning project.

Alternative Proposal of Concert Hall in Brno - Janáček Cultural Center
Fikejs, Oldřich ; Bindr, Tomáš (referee) ; Marek, Jiří (advisor)
The Brno Philharmonic is renowned all over the world from London to Tokyo, but in its home town only has a small hall with poor acoustics not suitable for symphony concerts. The efforts to construct a worthy cultural venue to meet the needs of Brno go back to the interwar period and their implementation is still not in sight.The core of the project is a concert hall with capacity of 1,812. Its layout combines the advantages of standard shoebox-shaped halls and surround halls, because the best music experience gets the viewer who is quite close to the orchestra. The disadvantages of the former include poor contact with the orchestra in the rear seating, the latter sacrifice acoustical excellence mainly in the side and rear seating areas for audience proximity and visual stimulation. The building is composed of three functionally distinct parts: the audience’s part, musicians‘ background and technical equipment. The operation of each is placed in a horizontal part of a L-shaped solid. The vertical parts face each other creating a raised central cube containing the concert hall.

Music Style Recognizer from MP3
Deutscher, Michael ; Szőke, Igor (referee) ; Grézl, František (advisor)
This document describes the concept of music style recognition. It gives a quick reference to the digitalization of music data and storing music data in computers. It also mentions features used for music style recognition and their extraction. The main part of this document compares the successfulness of music genre recognition using features extracted directly from audio data in mp3 format and features extracted by usual analysis.
