Image interpretation value and its purpose in creation of scientific figures and infographics
Phung, Hyu Nghia ; Sigmund, Tomáš (advisor) ; Horný, Stanislav (referee)
Graphic figures and various types of infographics have become an essential part of the scientific papers, business presentations and study materials. Although, authors of these documents often lack the knowledge of basic rules and principles of graphic design and learn how to create figures by trial and error. Literature addressing the issues of effective verbal (presentation skills) and non-verbal (principles of scientific writing) is available and accessible. Though literature addressing the issues of scientific figure design and general visual design are very few, sometimes non existent, despite the fact that images, figures and various charts are one of the most effective mediums for information sharing. This lack of material knowledge is detrimental to the quality of works of managers, professors and researchers. This thesis attempts to fill in this gap and motivate readers to further development and research of the issue. The thesis addresses the issue of figures from its core, those being the basic principles of image perception and interpretation. Building on concepts of theorists like Peirce, Saussure and Eco the thesis will then define the meaning and purpose of "Image Interpretation Value". Selected principles of figure construction and interpretation will be introduced. These principles will then be further analyzed and applied on the level of business and scientific figures. Each chapter will include various graphic figures and practical examples to enhance further understanding of the issue. The primary purpose and goal of this thesis is to create an easy-to-follow set of instructions and suggestions on how to design effective and intelligible figures to be used in the fields of business communication, scientific research and academic teaching.

Contact information management system
Závěrka, Jakub ; Gála, Libor (advisor) ; Pavlíčková, Jarmila (referee)
This master's thesis aims to develop a contact information sofware management system. This system is designed to support gathering, integration, synchronization and redistribution of contact information. The basis for the desing is research of theoretical sources, which puts the problem of contact information management into broader context. Based on information gathered in the research part this thesis chooses a suitable software development methodology to follow during the design phase. Before the actual design is started, the theoretical requirements are put to test against user requirements collected through interviews and a survey. The development follows the Software Development Lide Cycle model and results in a coarse-grained design. The major contributions of this thesis are primarily setting the problem of contact information management into broader context, which is poorly covered in literature and research, and performing user requirements analysis by a survey and interviews (which is something that has not been publicly done before).

Živkov, Martin ; Brixí, Radim (advisor) ; Kalina, Jaroslav (referee)
The work deals with areas of brain--computer interface (BCI). There is theoretical background described because of the research in the first part. The chapter "Analýza technologie (EEG, EMG)" is conceived generally and clarifies basic theory of EEG and EMG. Chapter "Popis zařízení EPOC neuroheadset" examines specific device used in research especially on the technical and functional side. Section "Analýza praktického využití BCI zařízení Emotiv EPOC neuroheadset" is self-explanatory. The focus of the practical part is influence of factors on the usability of BCI neuroheadset EPOC in the field of information management. These factors have been organized and analyzed. Group of factors connected with humans (physical and psychical) was chosen for the application of the research in which was investigated correlation with the ability to learn how to use neuroheadset EPOC, respectively its BCI element. For the research was used experimental method when a sample of volunteers was tested, undergone questionnaire investigation for acquiring human factors and repeatedly tested for the ability to use BCI element of neuroheadset EPOC. There was found out that the ability to learn how to use BCI correlates with optimism (Pearson's correlation coefficient 0,731 [Pkk] on the level of significance 0,01), stability (|0,648| Pkk on the level of significance 0,01), concentration (|0,638| Pkk on the level of significance 0,01 ), self-efficacy (0,549 Pkk on the level of significance 0,05), spatial perception (0,426 Pkk on the level of significance 0,01) in the research part.

Multimedia communication
Vondra, Zdeněk ; Horný, Stanislav (advisor) ; Brixí, Radim (referee)
Multimedia communication arises as a theoretical issue according to the constant and fast progress in information and communication technology evolution. In relation to the process of digitalization, there are made a new instruments and possibilities of communication that integrate a lot of new and also standard approaches. Focus of the public and both the producers is directing mainly to the technologies and tools. Theoretical framework that predicts the impacts and advices effective using in society context retreated into the background of interest. It is going to start massive expansion of technological instruments without the general know-how of parameters of its using and without the importance in whole society contact. Literacy in this way is a key to effective information design which allows us to communicate the message we want to in the way we want to. This document deals with issue of analysis actual state and synthesis of the basics that are important for the development of theoretical base. Main goal of this base it to support effective production of multimedia content thru identifying elementary principles that affects the transfer of message by multimedia. In the process of multimedia communication is happening that the initiator is separated from the message and has no possibility to manipulate with it during the process. So it is very necessary to act consciously and qualified during the formulations and coding to media to avoid bad reinterpretations and so that message will be resistant to the disruptive effects.
