Influence of the different light sources of the vehicle headlights on the perception of an obstacle by the driver of the vehicle
Sklenář, Michal ; Bradáč, Albert (referee) ; Motl, Jakub (advisor)
This thesis focuses on examining the influence of various light sources (halogen, xenon, LED) of vehicle headlights (Škoda Octavia III. generation) on the perception of pedestrians by the driver of the vehicle. The theoretical part contains the concepts essential for a general understanding of the main topic of this thesis. The aim of the thesis is to present how the brightness and contrast between the pedestrian and his surroundings changes when illuminated by one of these light sources due to the increasing distance between the pedestrian and the vehicle and the different type of pedestrian clothing. The results of the measured experiment are presented using charts, photo documentation and brightness maps. These are then compared with the results obtained by measuring the distance of pedestrian perception by individual probands. The conclusions applicable to forensic engineering practice are drawn from the compared values.
Possibilities of simulation modeling of traffic accidents with reduced visibility
Rozsíval, Jan ; Motl, Jakub (referee) ; Bradáč, Albert (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the possibilities of simulation modeling with reduced visibility in the Virtual CRASH program, which as the only available programs allows work both with the help of mathematical models to simulate vehicle movement and change parameters to simulate reduced visibility, lighting, etc. The theoretical part contains a description of photometric quantities, deals with the human eye and its ability to see under reduced visibility, a description of the luxmeter meter and luminance analyzers. Here are four main reasons for reduced visibility and their description. It contains a sample of the most used programs used to deal with traffic accidents. The four types of headlights most commonly used in today's vehicles are listed and described. In the experimental part, two measurements were performed. The first measurement to obtain input values to obtain a black and white texture determining the shape of the light rays emanating from the vehicle headlights. The second experiment to obtain the contrasts of the white box, black box and pedestrian for subsequent comparison with the output of the Virtual CRASH program.
Algorithmic Evaluation of the Quality of Dactyloscopic Traces
Sloup, Ondřej ; Tinka, Jan (referee) ; Drahanský, Martin (advisor)
Daktyloskopické stopy jsou jedním z klíčových aspektů biometrické identifikace. Reprezentují způsob, jakým lidé mohou ověřit svou identitu a být autorizováni. Nicméně je důležité ohodnotit, jestli daný otisk je validní a jestli dokáže poskytnout dostatek informací na to, aby bylo možné určit, jestli je použitelný anebo ne. Tato analýza rysů otisku dokáže specifikovat, jak moc přínosné pro nás je se daným otiskem zabývat. Navrhli jsme proces, který hodnotí otisky prstů na základě kontextuálních a statistických výsledků. Ne vždy je otisk ve stavu, kde všechny jeho prvky jsou viditelné a je nutné odstranit rušivé elementy před samotným ohodnocením, které by mohli negativně ovlivnit výsledky algoritmů pro hodnocení kvality. Tyto algoritmy rozpoznávají, jakou kvalitu má otisk prstu a jestli bude použit na další proces anebo zahozen. Rozdělili jsme otisky do skupin pomocí jejich kvality, která se hodnotila na základě počtu markantních bodů, počtu papilárních linií, kontrastu, sinusové podobnosti a tloušťky papilárních linií. Úspěšně jsme ohodnotili otisky a rozdělili je podobně jako v NIST SD27 databázi. Z výsledků těchto algoritmů jsme schopni ohodnotit otisky na základě jejich kvality, a tak vyvodit jejich použitelnost.
Effects of pattern, size and background contrast of prey on discrimination learning in avian predators
Kuncová, Aneta ; Exnerová, Alice (advisor) ; Komárek, Stanislav (referee)
The topic of this master thesis was the effects of pattern, size and background contrast of prey on discrimination learning of avian predators. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of selected components of warning coloration on aversive discrimination learning of avian predators of different age and sex. The choosen model organism was the Great tit (Parus major). The comparision was done between hand-reared naïve birds and wild-caught adults of different age and sex. The experiment was taking place in the experimental cage with one way mirror. The experiment used a design of simultaneous task with two pray which differed in one component of the coloration (pattern, size and background kontrast). The differencies in the ability of discrimination learning was found just between hand-rared naïve birds and wild-caught adults. Better results were shown by the wild-caught adults. The ability of discrimination learning of wild-caught adults was not influenced by the age and sex. Pattern was the only significant component of the warning coloration due to which the birds were able to memorise the discrimination task. Key words: avoidance learning, unpalatable prey, pattern, size, background, contrast

Šmídová, Anežka ; Kisová, Barbora (referee) ; Nový, Vítězslav (advisor)
Design „micro-urbanism“ in designated area. Aim of this work is to find suitable development strategy of open city block. Bachelor‘s thesis adresses design of poly-functional building in Brno-střed. The main theme was to design a town hall and other more functions as for example living space. Design tries to find optimal solution for site, which is currently occupied by parking lots. The building tries to complete corner of designated city block, which will be part of future „south“ neighbourhood. The townhall and housing should function in harmony, which means the building will „live“ all-day long. Between the site and neighbouring building will be parking garage tucked under the ground between malá Amerika and the designated area. The park will be situated above the parking garage to be open to the public. Building is composed by a pedestal in which town hall is situated. On the pedestal are placed 3 housing clusters. These clusters are designed the way which makes the volumes contrast.
Optimization of Contrast in MRI of Labeled Thrombi
Dohnalová, Petra ; Mézl, Martin (referee) ; Jiřík, Radovan (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the general principle of molecular MRI, the formation, composition of trombi and their impact on the human body. It also deals with the contrast agents, to which molecules are they targeted and why, as well as the principle of interactions with these target molecules. The following are found values of native relaxation times for thrombi, blood, gray and white matter and relaxivities of contrast agents at different values of B0 magnetic field. The next part is dedicated to the program for simulations of T1- and T2- weighted MRI and searching for the optimal setting of acquisition parametersbased on the achieved contrast. Finally, the possibility of combining T1- and T2- weighted images to increase contrast is explored.
J. D. Salinger's "A Perfect Day for Bananafish" Translation. Linguo-stylistic Analysis
Válková, Veronika ; Hirschová, Milada (advisor) ; Holanová, Radka (referee)
This thesis aims to analyse several translations of J.D. Salinger's short story A Perfect Day for Bananafish: namely two translations and two edited versions of the latter one. The contrastive view is used to discern the main differences in meaning of the original and the translated texts. There are several points of view adopted to recognise the differences. On the syntactic level, the contrast between the texts was found to be present in the treatment of the author's style, predominantly in the narrative perspective. Not employing nominal structures a great deal, the author's style was not lost in the translation process. Comparing the translated texts, a tendency to adhere to the syntactic surface structure of the original text was found in the less recent versions. Another level of analysis explored the temporal relations of the texts, with the original text relying mostly on structures expressing sequences of events and also simultaneity of events, but not the perfective aspect to a great degree. These time relations are also found to be communicated in the translated texts successfully. It is not only the narrator that is discussed in this thesis, as a great portion of the short story consist of dialogues. The analysis aimed, using certain excerpts of the story, to find to what degree...
