Sect in a modern society and their influence on pupils (schools options in the field of protecting pupils from the influence of sects)
Severová, Lucie ; Bendl, Stanislav (advisor) ; Bílý, Jiří (referee) ; Němec, Otakar (referee)
This doctoral thesis deals with the topic "Sects in a modern society and their influence on pupils" (school's options in the field of protecting pupils from the influence of sects). The main aim of the dissertation thesis is to map the sect issue and first of all the options of protection from their negative influences. To reach this aim, partial goals were set, which form the content structure of the thesis. The thesis is divided into five chapters. The first two should theoretically support the experimental part of the thesis, in which a pedagogical research in form of questionnaires at elementary and grammar schools was done. The questionnaires were focused on the knowledge of pupils and students about sects, their awareness and on finding out the real range of education about sects. Contribution of the thesis itself, elaborated in the remaining chapters, lies in the evaluation of mutual relation and intersection of official and practical educational materials, assessment of the research on pupils' knowledge of the sect issue, assessment of the approach to protection of pupils and in a proposal of a new educational model for protecting pupils from the influences of sects, applicable in educational practices.

Delictual liability of natural persons within environmental protection
Pospíšilová, Barbora ; Damohorský, Milan (advisor) ; Stejskal, Vojtěch (referee)
9. SUMMARY Delictual liability of natural persons in protection of the environment The purpose of my thesis is to analyse actual legal regulations of delictual liability of natural persons in protection of the environment. Delictual liability in protection of the environment includes a criminal liability and an administrative liability. The liability is one of legal instruments which the state uses for the protection of the environment and means that person who committed a breach of an obligation is obliged to endure appropriate consequences. The reason for my research is the fact that people quite frequently breach their duties, thus consequently endanger or harm the environment. I wanted to know more about the legal regulation concerning this theme. The thesis is composed of seven chapters, each of them dealing with different aspects of delictual liability of natural persons in protection of the environment. Chapter One is introductory and defines basic terminology used in the thesis. Chapter Two addresses the issue of legal liability in general. Chapter Tree investigates delictual liability in general and delictual liability of natural persons in protection of the environment. Chapter Four is about criminal liability in protection of the environment. The chapter is subdivided into six parts. Part one...

Decision Trees and Knowledge Extraction
Vitinger, Jiří ; Mrázová, Iveta (advisor) ; Jiroutek, Pavel (referee)
The goal of data mining is to extract knowledge, dependencies and rules from data sets. Many complex methods were developed to solve it. This thesis presents some of the most important methods, which include the decision trees with algorithms ID3, C4.5 and CART, neural networks like multilayer neural networks with the backpropagation algorithm, RBF networks, Kohonens maps and some modifications of LVQ method. There are also described some clustering methods like hierarchical clustering, QT clustering, kmeans method and its fuzzy modification. The work also includes data pre-processing techniques, which are very important in order to obtain better results of data mining process. Experimental part of the work compares the presented methods by means of the results of many tests on real-world data sets. The results can be used as a guide to choose an appropriate method and its parameters for some given data set. In this work there is presented author's implementation of the decision trees C4.5 and CART in C#. In the application it is possible to watch details of algorithms work. The application provides an API enabling an implementation of new algorithms.

Knowledge management and its implementation in organization
Zdvihal, Josef ; Palovská, Helena (advisor) ; Šubrta, Václav (referee)
Nowadays, when most of economic branches battle with the growth of information content, it is necessary not to leave out the benefits resulting from controlling and processing of the information. Analyses of success and failure of business refer more and more to incidence of the knowledge factor. Knowledge management tries to find a solution to share concrete knowledge among workers, generate of knowledge base, identify of best practices on the basis of this knowledge and so on. Typically turbulent economic environment forces many organization to continuous improving of the total run and acceleration of the economic development. High-quality and properly controlled knowledge in organization are necessary for their efficient functionality, turn into a meaningful competitive advantage today and they are often the effective instrument in competitive struggle. The main goal of this work is mapping of important information technologies that are conducive to knowledge management and its implementation. Besides specifying the basic terms knowledge and knowledge management, this work is focused on the way to implement the knowledge management , how to manage whole project and point out some very important steps of this process.

Artificial neural networks and their application in the assessment of insurance risks
Macek, Karel ; Jiroutek, Pavel (referee) ; Mrázová, Iveta (advisor)
The present work studies applicability of artificial neural networks in the assessment of insurance risk. Structure and function of multilayer perceptrons, Kohonen maps, Fuzzy ART networks, and Fuzzy ARTMAP networks are described. Concept of insurance risk is defined and the ratemaking by generalized linear models is introduced. Neural networks' methods for reduction of input space's dimension, knowledge extraction, and visualization are summed up. Data describing traffic accidents are acquainted and results achieved on them are presented. The work successfully demonstrates theoretically and experimentally that multilayer perceptrons approximate better than generalized linear models. Modification of multilayer perceptron estimated distribution function of total claim. Analysis performed by Kohonen map and by subsequent visualization detected two significant clusters. Analysis by Fuzzy ART network is presented as a part of new algorithm for reduction of input space's dimension. New algorithm inspired by Fuzzy ARTMAP network discovered a group of accidents where the claim is above average. This group is delimited by interpretable rules. Attached CD contains scripts for Matlab and MySQL that was used for mentioned analyses.

Physical interactions of the splicing factor Prp45
Kratochvílová, Eliška ; Folk, Petr (advisor) ; Doubravská, Lenka (referee)
It is well known that chromatin posttranslational state, transcription and splicing influence each other. Nevertheless, the details of this coupling are not fully understood. In S. cerevisiae, it is possible to induce conditions, in which splicing is uncoupled from transcription. Such situation occurred in cells expressing a mutated splicing factor Prp45, whose human homolog has been proved to participate in transcription regulation and also in splicing reactions. Based on previously indicated interactions in high throughput two-hybrid screens, we have been looking for physical links between Prp45 and proteins involved in chromatin posttranslational modifications. Finding of such a link would provide insight into the relationships of gene expression processes. Using coimmunoprecipitation and affinity purification, we were unable to detect physical interactions between Prp45 and our candidate chromatin regulators. Alternative approaches are discussed. Using the precipitation techniques, we mapped the interaction of Prp46 with truncated variants of Prp45. This observation contributes to our knowledge of protein-protein interactions within the spliceosome.

Real-Time Rendering of a Scene With Many Pedestrians
Pfudl, Václav ; Milet, Tomáš (referee) ; Herout, Adam (advisor)
The aim of this thesis was to implement a software that would be able to render, simulate and record a scene with walking pedestrians in real-time, with emphasis on rendering level of realism. The output of the application could serve as an input test data for people counting systems or similar systems for video recognition. The problem was divided into three major subproblems: character animation, artificial intelligence for character movement and advanced rendering techniques. The character animation problem is solved by the skeletal animation of the model. To achieve the characters moving in a scene autonomously path finding(A* algorithm) and group behaviors(steering behaviors) were implemented. Realism in a scene is added by implemented methods such as normal-mapping, variance shadow-mapping, deffered rendering, skydome, lens flare effect and screen space ambient occlusion. Optimaliaztion of the rendering was implemented using octree data structure for space partitioning. Rendering stage of a scene can be easily parametrized through implemented GUI. Implemented application provides the user with easy way of setting a scene with walking pedestrians, setting its visualization and to record the result.
