COMPARISON OF S-CO2 POWER CYCLES FOR NUCLEAR ENERGY
Veselý, L. ; Dostál, V. ; Entler, Slavomír
The supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO2) is a possible cooling system for the new generations of nuclear reactors and fusion reactors. The S-CO2 power cycles have several advantages over other possible coolants such as water and helium. The advantages are the compression work, which is lower than in the case of helium, near the critical point and the S-CO2 is more compact than water and helium. The disadvantage is so called Pinch point which occurs in the regenerative heat exchanger. The pinch point can be eliminated by an arrangement of the cycle or using a mixture of CO2. This paper describes the S-CO2 power cycles for nuclear fission and fusion reactors.

Emotion Detection from Speech
Popková, Anna ; Fér, Radek (referee) ; Matějka, Pavel (advisor)
This Bachelor Thesis deals with research in the field of emotion recognition mainly from speech and marginally from other modalities (video and physiological data). It closely describes the topology of the systems built specifically for the subject of this work. Moreover, it describes experiments leading to optimized pre-processing, regressor training and post-processing. Data used for these research origins from evaluation AV+EC 2015. Results of fusion systems producing the most precise prediction were sent to this evaluation. The Bottle-Neck features are newly tested and combined favorably with commonly used eGeMAPS features for the recognition of arousal. For valence, two kinds of video features are used. Muli-task system (recognizing both valence and arousal) using Bottle-Neck features produces competitive results and is only 13 % relatively behind the mentioned fusion system. This is especially appealing for applications where only audio is available.

Mergers of Companies for Tax Purposes
Janíková, Veronika ; Vondrák, Jan (referee) ; Polák, Michal (advisor)
Bachelor thesis focuses on the transformation of companies, namely the merger of parent and subsidiary companies. The parent company has a joint-stock company legislation and subsidiary companies with limited liability. Subsidiary on the effective date of the merger expires. The work is set out specific terms of the merger, which is further described. Included are all belongings mergers that preceded the merger, how the merger is going and how and when it was passed.

Binocular vision
Němcová, Andrea ; Šanda, Jaroslav (referee) ; Fedra, Petr (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the physiology of binocular vision for obtaining three-dimensional perception from two-dimensional images when using special glasses. It focuses on anatomy and physiology of the human eye and vision as inseparable parts of binocular vision, and on binocular vision as such. The work also mentions terms related to vision and describes the evolution of binocular vision during the human life. The important part of this thesis is the description of the emergence of three-dimensional perception from two two-dimensional pictures (stereogram). The thesis explains the principles of 3D projection methods, especially those which use active or passive glasses, and briefly describes the possibilities of 3D projection without glasses. The practical part includes a plan of capturing dynamic scenes where important parameters which affect the video capturing are described. The plan provides a description of a dynamic scene design with respect to the possibility of verification of human physiological parameters. Described scenes were captured by two identical cameras and edited in appropriate software. These videos were shown to a group of viewers whose task was to evaluate the videos from both subjective and objective points of view.

Application Demonstrating Multi-Biometric Fusion
Hanák, Jaroslav ; Hrubý, Martin (referee) ; Mráček, Štěpán (advisor)
This work is focused on biometrics, multi-biometrics, normalization and fusion in multi-biometrics systems and their performance evaluation. It contains a brief introduction to the problem and an overview of the techniques. The aim is to design and then implement an application demonstrating the performance of systems that fall into the category of multi-modal biometric systems. Furthermore, the experiments with the database templates of multi-biometric system and the conclusion summarizes the results.

Performance Measurement of Selected Drools Tools
Široký, Petr ; Fiedor, Jan (referee) ; Letko, Zdeněk (advisor)
Performance testing is often overlooked. This thesis describes the performance testing of the Drools Expert and Drools Fusion tools. Drools is a Business Logic Integration Platform. Expert and Fusion are parts of this platform, which provide rule based expert system and event processing capabilities respectively. Tests are designed and implemented with main focus on finding performance regression between different versions of Expert and Fusion tools. Results for two versions of these tools are discussed at the end of the thesis.

Text Dependent Speaker Verification
Fux, Jan ; Glembek, Ondřej (referee) ; Matějka, Pavel (advisor)
The goal of this Bachelor's thesis was to design text dependent speaker recognition system. There were few systems tested for MIT database. This database contains recordings of 0.46s average length. Best case for recognition is to use a combination of DTW system using posterior probability estimation (posteriograms) as an output of Phoneme recognizer and acoustic SID system based on iVectors and PLDA (Probabilistic Linear Component Analysis). Fusion with Neural network gives the best results (EER). These are 17.84% EER for women and 16.38% for men. It's 49.9% relative improvement for women and 54.2% for men against acoustic recognition alone.

Emotion Recognition from Acted and Spontaneous Speech
Atassi, Hicham ; Přibil, Jiří (referee) ; Zahradník, Pavel (referee) ; Smékal, Zdeněk (advisor)
Dizertační práce se zabývá rozpoznáním emočního stavu mluvčích z řečového signálu. Práce je rozdělena do dvou hlavních častí, první část popisuju navržené metody pro rozpoznání emočního stavu z hraných databází. V rámci této části jsou představeny výsledky rozpoznání použitím dvou různých databází s různými jazyky. Hlavními přínosy této části je detailní analýza rozsáhlé škály různých příznaků získaných z řečového signálu, návrh nových klasifikačních architektur jako je například „emoční párování“ a návrh nové metody pro mapování diskrétních emočních stavů do dvou dimenzionálního prostoru. Druhá část se zabývá rozpoznáním emočních stavů z databáze spontánní řeči, která byla získána ze záznamů hovorů z reálných call center. Poznatky z analýzy a návrhu metod rozpoznání z hrané řeči byly využity pro návrh nového systému pro rozpoznání sedmi spontánních emočních stavů. Jádrem navrženého přístupu je komplexní klasifikační architektura založena na fúzi různých systémů. Práce se dále zabývá vlivem emočního stavu mluvčího na úspěšnosti rozpoznání pohlaví a návrhem systému pro automatickou detekci úspěšných hovorů v call centrech na základě analýzy parametrů dialogu mezi účastníky telefonních hovorů.

The determination of the composition of refractory material by X-ray fluorescence.
Janča, Martin ; Šilerová, Iva (referee) ; Šiler, Pavel (advisor)
The goal of this Bachelor thesis is to find the right way for the analysis of the refractory materials that would be accurate and could be repeated. The ideal method that would help us achieve our goal seems to be the fluorescent spectrometric analysis. This method is used very often in case of instant control of the quality of production in the cement and other heavy industry enterprises. Using the fluorescent spectrometric analysis comes with one issue, which is the presence of many distorting interferences. From this particular reason it is necessary to identify these interferences and then find the ideal solution of their elimination. Because of the possibility to have the sample in any shape or form at the x-ray florescent spectrometer it was necessary to choose the right method of preparing the sample for the analysis as well as choose the right parameter for the measuring itself and for the elimination of undesirable interferences.
