Aplikace Balanced Scorecard
Jirásková, Eva ; Neumaierová, Inka (advisor) ; Závodská, Jana (referee)
Balanced scorecard is a tool to execute and monitor the organizational strategy by using a combination of financial and non financial measures. It is designed to translate vision and strategy into objectives and measures across four balanced perspectives: financial, customers, internal business process and learning and growth. It gives a framework ensuring that the strategy is translated into a coherent set of performance measures. Strategy maps are a complementary tool to the balanced scorecard, and provide a visual representation of the components of an organization's strategy.

The Cultivation of Language Utterances and Communication Instruction in School
Hrubá, Hana ; Chejnová, Pavla (advisor) ; Šamalová, Markéta (referee)
This work contains three parts. The first part describes attitudes chosen by various authors towards the subject of communication training in three sets of textbooks for the second grade of basic schools, namely those by Vlastimil Styblík, Balkó and Zimová and Oldřich Uličný. The aim was to establish if there are differences in the attitudes of the individual authors and if so, what they are. The conclusion made is that in all basic principles the attitudes towards the communication training are the same, i.e. communication principle, integrity of texts with real life of pupils and main aim to increase ability of pupils to be able of a cultured and adequate speech. A significant difference is in a different level of the communication training within the subject of Czech language and literature. Although all three authors keep horizontal link between the individual parts of the subject - language, composition, literature, the level of integrity is different. VI. Styblík allocates a separate part to the communication training which includes chapters on individual composition forms. Authors Balkó and Zimová use a principle of integration in composition of their textbooks (i.e. integration of linguistic and composition texts). The composition texts are combined with the linguistic ones thus enabling to use...

Access to healthcare for third countries migrants in the Czech Republic
Dobiášová, Karolína ; Háva, Petr (advisor) ; Dlouhý, Martin (referee) ; Křečková, Naděžda (referee)
This Ph.D. thesis discusses the evolution and current situation regarding availability of healthcare for third countries migrants in the Czech Republic. In terms of methodology, the author has chosen a qualitative approach. The research design is a historical case study. The thesis uses a combination of "desk research" and empirical survey based on 56 in-depth interviews with migrants, healthcare providers and experts who come into contact with migrants during the course of their work. Based on the approach of historical institutionalism, the author is explaining policy of migrants' health insurance evolution in Czech Republic since 1993 till today. The author identifies the key events and the roles of particular actors within the observed "sub- system" of public policy. From the viewpoint of migrants and healthcare providers, the thesis also presents how the current institutionalised set-up of migrants' health policy transfers into the real access to healthcare for migrants. It also identifies the main barriers to health care accessibility and the consequences of possible health care unavailability. Key words: migrants, health care availability, health insurance, historical institutionalism, barriers to health care access

Polyfunctional building
Michna, Patrik ; Pospíšil, Jaroslav (referee) ; Fuciman, Ondřej (advisor)
The assignment of my diploma thesis was to design a polyfunctional building. Function of the building is based on the requirements of the Land Use Plan Brno, cadastral zone Židenice. The aim of the design was to improve the quality of public space in the area by creating parks, urban parterre with services, parking and by bringing missing features to the area. The building is located in the centre of the plot. The main facade is oriented to the main street. Design creates new parking on the ground and in the underground garage. On the first floor are rentable spaces for commerce and services. At 2nd and 3rd floor are open space offices with the possibility of spatial variability solutions. Architectural expression of the building is simple, consisting as a compact mass with parterre subsided, useful in terms of energetical sustainability. The facade of the building is made as a combination of a transparent double skin facade and opaque ventilated facade with fibre cement panels. Structural system is a precast concrete frame with a cast-in-place reinforced concrete shear core. Foundation is made as a reinforced concrete pads and strips. Ceiling is made of a precast prestressed hollow core slabs.

Is a tax policy imposed on cigarettes in the context of the EU effective?
Lichterová, Markéta ; Tepperová, Jana (advisor) ; Tecl, Jan (referee)
This thesis is based on the question, whether a taxation have an effect on consumption of cigarettes. At the first there was needed to find factors which affect the cigarettes consumption. These factors are socioeconomic status of the population or using regulatory politics for tobacco products. Analysis is based on estimation econometrics model of regression analysis on panel data set. The panel data set consist from information about member states of European union for years 2003 to 2015. The goal of the thesis is to find an answer whether the tax policy of member states in according to taxation of cigarettes is effective. It means whether taxation of cigarette have an impact on cigarettes consumption. The analysis show that the explanatory variable for taxation is statistically inefficient. That say that the level of taxation does not affect the cigarettes consumption.

National image as a factor of competitiveness of Czech products
Veselá, Jitka ; Kita, Jaroslav (referee) ; Zich, Robert (referee) ; Nétek, Václav (referee) ; Světlík, Jaroslav (advisor)
The presented dissertation thesis deals with the issue of national image and its influence on increasing of competitiveness of domestic producers in the domestic wine market. Customers are currently affected by many factors that companies try to use to gain their competitive advantage and strengthen their competitive position in the market. The thesis is divided into three main parts. The first part defines the main objectives of the thesis, as well as the milestones, through which the main objective is accomplished. Furthermore, the research assumptions, which are verified on the basis of statistical hypotheses, are defined here and in the end, the research methods that will lead to the fulfilment of the main goal of this work are defined. This work combines several approaches to achieve the most accurate results. The second part summarizes the current literature point of view on the main topics of the work. It is divided into three sub-units, the first unit focuses on the definition, measurement and shaping of the national image. The second sub-unit deals with consumer behaviour, models of consumer behaviour according to the traditional and the modern concept and using online media to influence customer attitudes. The third sub-unit describes the concepts of competitiveness which are available in the literature. The third part is the research part. The research is carried out in the area of customers, producers and external organizations that are involved in raising awareness of domestic products of the wine industry on the domestic market. For each of the areas the key findings are set out at the conclusion, which are then followed by the creation of the concept of competitiveness usable in the wine industry and the creation of functioning communication models tailored to the specifics of the wine market.

Robust Regularized Discriminant Analysis Based on Implicit Weighting
Kalina, Jan ; Hlinka, Jaroslav
In bioinformatics, regularized linear discriminant analysis is commonly used as a tool for supervised classification problems tailormade for high-dimensional data with the number of variables exceeding the number of observations. However, its various available versions are too vulnerable to the presence of outlying measurements in the data. In this paper, we exploit principles of robust statistics to propose new versions of regularized linear discriminant analysis suitable for highdimensional data contaminated by (more or less) severe outliers. The work exploits a regularized version of the minimum weighted covariance determinant estimator, which is one of highly robust estimators of multivariate location and scatter. The performance of the novel classification methods is illustrated on real data sets with a detailed analysis of data from brain activity research.

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...

Output-Inflation Trade-off After a Quarter of a Century of Inflation Targeting
Kamarád, Martin ; Potužák, Pavel (advisor) ; Kadeřábková, Božena (referee)
This thesis estimates the treatment effect of inflation targeting adoption on inflation, inflation variability, output, and output variability for 25 explicit inflation targeting countries. I implement the propensity score matching methodology that takes into account the problems of non-experimental nature, such as selection bias or selection on observable, and allows me to effectively mimic properties of randomized experiment and compute unbiased treatment effect estimates. I introduce a variety of propensity score matching methods that were recently developed in the treatment effect literature, including Nearest Neighbor, Radius matching, Kernel matching, and Inverse Probability Weighting. The results indicate that both industrial and developing inflation targeting countries exhibit lower inflation levels and at the same time higher output growth than non-targeting countries. The estimates are however in most cases statistically insignificant. Moreover, it appears that both industrial and developing countries achieve combination of lower inflation variability and output variability compared to non-targeting countries. Nonetheless, majority of the estimates are again statistically insignificant. The results are to a small extent sensitive to the choice of propensity score matching method. Radius matching with tight calipers (r=0.005, r=0.001) tends to provide the most reliable estimates. Balancing properties of the models are reasonable and compared to the previous research the standardised biases are quantitatively better.
