Harmonicity as a possible indicator of segment boundaries in Czech
Heranová, Jana ; Skarnitzl, Radek (advisor) ; Volín, Jan (referee)
The aim of this diploma thesis is to examine harmonicity as an indicator of segment boundaries in Czech. ln our analysis we have focused on sequences of voiced and unvoiced segments, more precisely the combination of voiceless obstruents and vowels. First we examined the behaviour of harmonicity in the area of segment transitions. Based on the results we established a classification of harmonicity behaviours, which was further used as a basis for examining the relationship between the placement of segment boundaries and the behaviour of harmonicity. The results, Le. established time intervals, in which most boundaries were situated, imply harmonicity to be a promising indicator of segment boundaries in Czech. The further course of research, which attempts to use harmonicity for purposes of automatic segmentation, is to examine the accuracy of segmentation while using different settings for HNR estimation.

The prospect of economic relations between the Czech Republic and Mongolia, taking into account cultural differences
Heranová, Jana ; Müllerová, Františka (advisor) ; Ďurove, Kateřina (referee)
Before the Velvet Revolution, Mongolia was a very important trading partner of the former Czechoslovakia. The aim of my thesis is to present Mongolia as a potential business partner for today's Czech exporters and investors and see if it is possible to develop mutual economic relations. The thesis is divided into five chapters. The first chapter focuses on the general characteristics of Mongolia, for example geographic and demographic data, administrative structure and history. Another chapter is devoted to analysis of the Mongolian market, thus characterizes the political, legal, social and technological environment. The third chapter is focused on the economic characteristics of the country, follows the development of macroeconomic indicators and provides detailed information on foreign trade and analyzes the investment climate. The fourth chapter is about the Mongolian culture, its differences and etiquette of business meetings. The final chapter follows the existing trade relations between the Czech Republic and Mongolia, deals with the specifics of entry of Czech entities and based on information from companies already doing business in Mongolia, the chapter analyzes the suitable fields and possibilities of entry of Czech companies to Mongolia.
