Setting and verifying of the programme of breathing exercises for the female representatives of the Czech woman representation team of water polo
KRÁSOVÁ, Barbora
The thesis engages in taking and verifying the interventionist yoga programme for the Czech national team players of the women water polo in their adolescence age. In the theoretical part there was described the setting of water polo, the essential physiology of the respiratory system, the principle of the yogic techniques and the specification of the adolescent age. The research group (10 teenage ladies ) took part in 12 weeks yoga programme. Its goal was to use the right correct breathing for health optimizing and for reduction unwanted emotional expressions. The professional physiotherapy examination, the questioning research STAI, POMS and the research by Biofeedback method have been done. After the finishing interventionist yoga programme the hard pressed muscles groups were relaxed and stretched, probands have learnt how to breath properly, and thanks to it, to control state of stress and relax, the improvement of the posture was not confirm for all probands.

Komprese dvousměrných texturních dat založaná na víceůrovňové vektorové kvantizaci - doplňkový materiál
Havran, V. ; Filip, Jiří ; Myszkowski, K.
The Bidirectional Texture Function (BTF) is becoming widely used for accurate representation of real-world material appearance. In this paper a novel BTF compression model is proposed. The model resamples input BTF data into a parametrization, allowing decomposition of individual view and illumination dependent texels into a set of multidimensional conditional probability density functions. These functions are compressed in turn using a novel multi-level vector quantization algorithm. The result of this algorithm is a set of index and scale code-books for individual dimensions. BTF reconstruction from the model is then based on fast chained indexing into the nested stored code-books. In the proposed model, luminance and chromaticity are treated separately to achieve further compression. The proposed model achieves low distortion and compression ratios 1:233-1:2040, depending on BTF sample variability.

Salome in the art of symbolism and decadence and her representation in czech fine arts at the begining of the 20th century
Johanidesová, Tereza ; Wittlich, Petr (advisor) ; Prahl, Roman (referee)
The theme of this dissertation is a representation of biblical figure of Jewish princess Salome in fine arts. The author of this dissertation focuses mainly attention on the turn of the 19th and 20th century, when the theme of Salome became the fundamental motif of the Symbolist and Decadence art. In this time Salome started to appear very frequently in the world of literature, painting, sculpture and graphic art as well and she epitomized nearly the icon and the idol for the artists of this period. But in fact Salome as one of the figures acting in the New Testament narrative about the death of John the Baptist was a biblical subject with rich iconographic tradition developing systematically already from the Early Christian art. It is for this reason that the part of this dissertation comprises also the brief analysis of the narrative and the outline of his iconography in the sphere of fine arts. The chapters devoted to the genearal characterization of Symbolism and Decadence serve as an introduction into this complicated age, when the reconsideration of previous values in the sphere of fine arts, science, politics and society projects into the visual representations too. With regard to interconnection of literature and fine arts at the turn of the 19th century, the attention is also payed to the most...

Analysis of a bar-system with elements of variable cross-section characteristics
Náprstek, Jiří ; Fischer, Cyril
The response analysis of a system consisting of bars or one-dimensional elements can be understood as a solution of a certain differential system on an oriented graph. This graph is a corresponding geometric representation of a mechanical system investigated where elements of this graph are individual bars of the system.

Simplification the Digital Terrain Model based on TIN representation
Pancová, Iveta ; Bayer, Tomáš (advisor) ; Potůčková, Markéta (referee)
The Generalization of the Digital Terrain Model Based on the TIN Abstract This diploma thesis deals with the up to now way and the possibilities of the digital terrain model generalization based on the TIN (the triangulate irregular network). New suitable way of the generalization of the digital terrain model procured from laser scanning data is proposed on the base of the existing generalization methods designated for digital models. Laser scanning data is characterized by a high areal density so the basic requirement is computing speed, maintaining the terrain features, such as a ridge, valley, steep hill, saddle, depression … and so on. The proposed algorithm is compared with the results of suggested algorithms and results from the generalization by the geographic software, such as Atlas DMT and ArcGIS.

Frictionless contact of elastic bodies: comparison of treatment in finite element analysi and isogeometric analysis
Kopačka, Ján ; Kolman, Radek ; Gabriel, Dušan ; Plešek, Jiří
Artificial oscillations in contact force due to non-smooth contact surface are treated by isogeometric analysis (IGA). After brief overview of B-splines and Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS) representation, the mortar-based contact algorithm is presented in the frictionless small deformation regime. Contact constraints are regularized by penalty method. The contact algorithm is tested by means of contact patch test.

Interval Representations of Boolean Functions
Kronus, David ; Čepek, Ondřej (advisor) ; Sgall, Jiří (referee) ; Savický, Petr (referee)
This thesis is dedicated to a research concerning representations of Boolean functions. We present the concept of a representation using intervals of integers. Boolean function f is represented by set I of intervals, if it is true just on those input vectors, which correspond to integers belonging to intervals in I, where the correspondence between vectors and integers depends on the ordering of bits determining their significancies. We define the classes of k-interval functions, which can be represented by at most k intervals with respect to a suitable ordering of variables, and we provide a full description of inclusion relations among the classes of threshold, 2-monotonic and k-interval Boolean functions (for various values of k). The possibility to recognize in polynomial time, whether a given function belongs to a specified class of Boolean functions, is another fundamental and practically important property of any class of functions. Our results concerning interval functions recognition include a proof of co-NP- hardness of the general problem and polynomial-time algorithms for several restricted variants, such as recognition of 1-interval and 2-interval positive functions. We also present an algorithm recognizing general 1-interval functions provided that their DNF representation satisfies several...

MSAR BTF Model
Havlíček, Michal
The Bidirectional Texture Function (BTF) is the recent most advanced representation of material surface visual properties. BTF specifies the changes of visual appearance due to varying illumination and viewing conditions. Such a function might be represented by thousands of images of surface taken in given illumination and viewing conditions per sample of the material. Resulting BTF size, hundreds of gigabytes, excludes its direct rendering in graphical applications, accordingly some compression of these data is obviously necessary. This paper presents a novel probabilistic model based algorithm for realistic multispectral BTF texture modelling. This complex but efficient method combines several multispectral band limited spatial factors and corresponding range map to produce the required BTF texture. Proposed scheme enables very high BTF texture compression ratio and in addition may be used to reconstruct BTF space i.e. non-measured parts of the BTF space.

Media Portrayal of Female Athletes' Representation in Czech Print
Paulová, Ivana ; Slavíčková, Tess (advisor) ; Brejcha, Jan (referee)
Developed societies claim that men and women are equal at anything they do. There is no real distinction of roles and everyone is free to do what they wish to do. When we start looking closely we see gaps emerging out of this positive approach; we begin to see that males and females are not really equal and one of many examples is the area of employment. Women simply do not have the same opportunities as men do. The same applies to sports, women are discouraged from some "masculine" sports such as rugby and the same applies vice versa, men are discouraged from "feminine" sports such as aerobics. The problem arises when the media steps on to the scene. Because then they start deciding what gets more coverage, what is shown and repeated in the media, therefore they decide what is accepted in the society as a norm. This topic is interesting not only because it deals with equality between coverage of male and female sports, but it also looks at what is in nature male and female according to our society. That is something each of us deals with everyday either directly or indirectly. It has to be acknowledged that there have been improvements in accepting women as offering different qualities than men and it has been reflected into the coverage of sports too. These are the building blocks for the future, where...

Binary-Code Decoding to a High-Level Representation
Macko, Lukáš ; Soukup, Ondřej (referee) ; Matula, Peter (advisor)
The thesis deals with reverse techniques in software engineering. It presents practical application of software reverse engineering, used tools and approaches. The topic of instruction decoding is discussed in detail. Two basic methods are presented-linear sweep and recursive descent. Their strengths and weaknesses are highlighted. Subsequently a decompiler developed by AVG Technologies is introduced. The decompiler is retargetable. This feature allows to decompile applications of multiple platforms into various target languages. The aim of  the thesis is to design and implement algorithm for  decoding binary files into high-level representation. The designed algorithm is based on modified recursive descent algorithm, which uses control flow information. In order to achieve more accurate decoding results, symbol table records and other additional information are used. The proposed algorithm was implemented for the AVG Technologies retargetable decompiler. The tests showed that the implemented algorithm improved the function detection in decoded programs. Furthermore, the implemented solution allows to decode files that could not be analysed using the previous version of the decompiler.
