Creativity and Creative Industries: Redefinition of Economy and Culture
Kubaš, Mario ; Patočka, Jiří (advisor) ; Riedlbauch, Václav (referee) ; Kloudová, Věra (referee)
A dissertation entitled Creativity and Creative industries: Redefinition of Culture and Creativity presents a current paradigmatic shift, deep-rooted in 80th . The study is divided into three main parts. First one analyses a change of paradigm using a cultural, economic and psychological approach. The second part employing a cultural statistics method describes the changes in a cultural consumption and participation. The final part proposes two possible scenarios of a future position of a mainstream cultural production. In the introductory part an author delineates four main reasons of the ongoing paradigmatic shift: the radical change of a geopolitical situation in the break of 80th and 90th causing the democracy a liberalism expansion; an intellectual migration in 90th provoking an increasing concurrence among the educational institutions; a digital revolution redefining the communication principles and their space-time dimension, being at the same time a part of an economic revolution consisting in an enhancing trade of intangible goods; a growing interest in cultural and creative goods becoming a nourishment of current paradigmatic shift. These processes are resulting in a concept of culture and creative industries which represent a new kind of symbiosis between culture and economy. The study...

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.

Parallelisation of Ultrasound Simulations on Multi-GPU Clusters
Dujíček, Aleš ; Kula, Michal (referee) ; Jaroš, Jiří (advisor)
This work is part of the k-Wave project, which is a toolbox designed for time ultrasound simulations in complex and heterogeneous media. The simulation functions are based on the k-space pseudospectral method. The goal of this work is to compute these simulations on graphics cards using local domain decompostion. Thanks to decomposition we could compute these simulations faster, and on larger data grids. The main goal of this work is to achieve efficiency and scalability.

Phytophily - its origin and influence onto humans
Hůla, Martin ; Komárek, Stanislav (advisor) ; Kleisner, Karel (referee)
Phytophilia, the love of plants, is a widespread and probably inborn human quality. This work shows evolutionary interpretations of its origin. These suggest that phytophilia has evolved as an adaptation to the choice of the resource-rich habitat and to the effective orientation in space. The work also presents the effects of plants on human psyche and briefly mentions cultural and individual differences.

Regulation of Outdoor Advertising in the Czech Republic
Coufal, Vojtěch ; Vostrovská, Zdenka (advisor) ; Zeman, Martin (referee)
Outdoor advertising constitutes a part of the public space and as such it affects all inhabitants. Outdoor advertising causes several negative effects, such as traffic hazard or visual pollution. Therefore, it raises a requirement for its effective regulation. The thesis analyzes the current state of regulation of outdoor advertising in the Czech Republic and focuses primarily on advertising alongside the roads and on advertising in Prague. It deals with advertising from a marketing point of view, its role in society and the economic theories and approaches to advertising. Next, the thesis presents the specifics and forms of outdoor advertising, and also negative effects which are associated with it. Last, it analyzes legislative and institutional framework of regulation of outdoor advertising and describes its problematic areas. To evaluate the current state of regulation, an own empirical research was conducted using the method of questionnaires and personal interviews.

Party System Formation in Russia - a tendency to monocentrism
Gutsul, Yulia ; Prorok, Vladimír (advisor) ; Dvořáková, Vladimíra (referee) ; Iličeva, Ludmila (referee)
Research of process of forming of party system of Russia at the present stage acquires special relevance that is caused by changes of a political regime. Change of nature of a political regime, sharpening of personalistic, unicentric lines has caused search of a new format of party system which would minimize possibility of instability of a political regime and became the effective mechanism of maintenance of the status quo. Main goal of dissertation research is studying of forming of a tendency to a monotsentrichnost in development of party system of the modern Russian Federation. Hypotheses which have proved to be true have been formulated: forming of unicentric party system when using strategy of a party creation of the power and its positioning in political space I became reaction of political elite of Russia to a situation of democratic transit and manifestation of its pragmatical interests.

Global Economic Outlook - March 2017
Česká národní banka
The March issue of Global Economic Outlook presents the regular monthly overview of recent and expected developments in selected territories, focusing on key economic variables: inflation, GDP growth, leading indicators, interest rates, exchange rates and commodity prices. In this issue, we then focus analytically on the monetary and fiscal policy response space in OECD countries. The article shows that nominal interest rates are still expected to be very low over the medium term. This is inconsistent with the process of closing output gaps and attaining inflation rates close to 2%, making a return to conventional interest - rate policy more difficult. Our article also notes that the return to positive real interest rates will be complicated by the overleveraging of many OECD countries, as a visible rise in interest rates could increase the risk of insolvency of several euro area countries and trigger the feared domino effect.
