Comparison of Czech and Vietnamese Folk Tales
Do, Ngoc Anh ; Stárková, Zuzana (advisor) ; Bischofová, Jana (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with comparison of Czech and Vietnamese folk tales in order to find the same and different characteristics, which were caused by cultural differences in both areas. In the opening chapters author has described genre fairytale, she has also mentioned folk tales collectors and historical context of Czech and also Vietnamese collection. A separate chapter is devoted to the fairy tale Cinderella, in both cultures they are very similar, unlike other tales where we can only find the same (or different) motifs or themes. key words: folk tales, Czech folk tale, Vietnamese folk tale, folk tale collectors, Cinderella

Title: Neural networks for automatic speaker, language, and sex identifica- tion Author: Bich-Ngoc Do Department: Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics Supervisor: Ing. Mgr. Filip Jurek, Ph.D., Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics and Dr. Marco Wiering, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, University of Groningen Abstract: Speaker recognition is a challenging task and has applications in many areas, such as access control or forensic science. On the other hand, in recent years, deep learning paradigm and its branch, deep neural networks have emerged as powerful machine learning techniques and achieved state-of- the-art in many fields of natural language processing and speech technology. Therefore, the aim of this work is to explore the capability of a deep neural network model, recurrent neural networks, in speaker recognition. Our pro- posed systems are evaluated on TIMIT corpus using speaker identification task. In comparison with other systems in the same test conditions, our systems could not surpass reference ones due to the sparsity of validation data. In general, our experiments show that the best system configuration is a combination of MFCCs with their dynamic features and a recurrent neural network model. We also experiment recurrent neural networks and convo- lutional neural...
