Analysis of epileptogenic tissue response to intracranial electrical stimulation
Formánková, Zuzana ; Klimeš, Petr (referee) ; Cimbálník, Jan (advisor)
This work deals with the methods of intracranial electrical stimulation and their usage in the localization of epileptogenic tissue. The aim of the thesis is to assess, with help of the proposed markers, the reaction of pathological tissue on the electrical stimulation. Among the suitable markers high-frequency oscillations were classified, interictal spikes, changes in the connectivity, and the signal power within the frequency zones. The markers were detected on the iEEG records taken at the Fakultní nemocnice u sv. Anny in Brno. A software in the Python language has been designed for the purpose of analysis and detection; the software uses the detection algorithms of the EPYCOM library. In the final part of the thesis, the occurrence of the markers was analyzed in terms of dependency on the electrical stimulation. The influence of the electrical stimulation on the iEEG records of patients with epilepsy has been proved.

The classification of epileptogenic tissue after electrical stimulation using machine learning
Formánková, Zuzana ; Mívalt, Filip (referee) ; Cimbálník, Jan (advisor)
This thesis addresses electrophysiological biomarkers of epileptic activity after direct electrical stimulation in the classification of epileptogenic tissue. Suitable biomarkers included high-frequency oscillations, interictal spikes, changes in connectivity and signal power across frequency bands. Biomarkers were detected in iEEG recordings and their response to direct electrical stimulation was analyzed by statistical tests. Biomarker analysis demonstrated the effect of direct electrical stimulation on electrophysiological biomarkers of epileptic activity. Relevant biomarkers were selected by selection methods as signal power in the frequency band 80-250 Hz, relative entropy in the frequency band 250-600 Hz and linear correlation. Machine learning models, namely logistic regression, support vector machines and decision forest, were implemented for epileptogenic tissue classification. The support vector machines method showed the highest sensitivity (70,5 %) among the models, but the overall results were insufficient (PPV 38,5 %, F1 score 42,9 %). Despite the limitations in the performance of the classification models, this work highlights the potential of electrophysiological biomarkers in identifying epileptogenic foci and establishes a foundation for further research in the field.

Geocaching as an instrument of local and regional development in the Czech Republic
Formánková, Zuzana ; Vágner, Jiří (advisor) ; Ptáček, Pavel (referee)
The thesis deals with geocaching as a new leisure activity. Within a few years, geocaching gained a great deal of supporters worldwide and their number is rapidly growing. This trend brings the number of side effects, which makes geocaching as a subject of multidisciplinary research. On the thesis geocaching is evaluated especially in relation to tourism and leisure time theory. The thesis provides a qualitative assessment of geocaching and spatial distribution within the Czech Republic. There are also evaluated limits and possibilities of development of this activity and studied the influence of geocaching on the environment. The thesis presents analysis of current practice and attitude of the two actors of regional development in relation to geocaching - Czech regions and representatives of specially protected areas. They are suggested ways, how could be geocaching used in desired development of areas where it is operated.

Analysis of accommodation and catering services in the area Kutná Hora
FORMÁNKOVÁ, Zuzana
The primary aim of my bachelor thesis was an analysis of the market of accommodation and catering facilities in the chosen region of Kutná Hora. In work was used secondary and primery data. From data obtained from field research, guided interviews and personal observation situation analysis that was instrumental towards obtaining of the total view of situation housing and commissaryman services in the area was processed. At the end of work suggestions and procuration that contribute to development of services in town were designed.
