The effect of the covid-19 pandemic on the structure and level of mortality in Czechia and Slovakia in the period 2020-2021 Abstract The aim of this bachelor thesis is a detailed analysis of the impact of pandemic covid-19 on the structure andlevelofmortalityintheCzechRepublicandSlovakiain2020and2021.Todeterminemortalitytrends, an analysis for the years 2012-2019 was also performed. The thesis uses mainly standardized mortality rates, life expectancy at birth and its decomposition by age groups and selected groups of causes of death. The data used came from the Czech Statistical Office and the Statistical Office of the Slovak Republic. Between 2012 and 2019, mortality rates decreased in both countries, especially for circulatory system diseases. The higher intensity of mortality in 2020 was mainly due to mortality from covid-19 in both countries, and to a lesser extent also to mortality from diseases of the circulatory system and, in the Czech Republic, to the group of other causes of death. In 2021, the level of mortality from covid-19 was at least two and a half times higher in both study countries compared to 2020. In the Czech Republic, mortality from most of the selected causes of death decreased in 2021, while in Slovakia mortality from circulatory...

Houdek, Jakub ; Černý, Michal (advisor) ; Formánek, Tomáš (referee)
The thesis is focused on application of econometric methods in the area of sport statistics, specifically in the area of ice hockey. Datasets were extracted from the National Hockey League (NHL) website, from the RTSS (Real Time Scoring System) from seasons 2002/2003 to 2014/15 by using the R package nhlscrapr. The Analysis of these datasets is based on previous work by Brian Macdonald [1]. The result is an adjusted +/- statistics (plus - minus), which describes the individual performance of each player. These statistics were later used for an estimation of probability of advance of selected teams to the playoffs, assuming the selected team uses anticipated players. These estimations were obtained by usage of logistic regression. It was found out, that the predictive ability of these models is weak.
