Investigation of dependence of the housing characteristics and the amenities in the dwelling on the household type
Čapková, Kateřina ; Řezanková, Hana (advisor) ; Löster, Tomáš (referee)
The aim of the diploma thesis is to provide a comprehensive overview regarding survey of income and living conditions of households in the Czech Republic and propose a feasible approach to the exploitation of the collected data. The diploma thesis describes the framework of the EU-SILC survey and presents its practical implementation in the Czech Republic. A technique utilizing contingency table analysis is proposed for studying asymmetric relationships between selected housing characteristics and amenities in the dwelling with respect to different household types. The analysis is based on the relative frequencies of housing characteristics observed for particular types of households. The frequencies stem from the sample survey of income and living conditions of households carried out in the Czech Republic under the official title of Living Conditions 2008. Asymmetric measures of association for nominal and ordinal variables were used for the description of the relationships as the examined housing characteristics and household types have the character of alternative, nominal or ordinal variables. The analyses show significant relationship of the selected housing characteristics and the amenities in the dwelling on the monitored types of households.

EVALUATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF THE EUROPEAN UNION COUNTRIES
Brabcová, Petra ; Löster, Tomáš (advisor) ; Vltavská, Kristýna (referee)
This diploma work describes the classification of the member states of the European Union according to the demographic indicators. It evaluates development in the individual states by absolute demographic indicators too. In the year 2008 less children were born and less people were died in the most of the member states than the year 1993. The hope of the end of life grows up in all contries. Relative demographic indicators are used in the cluster analysis for diversification of rhe states into certain groups in accordance with their similarity. Two methods are used in this work --of the farthest neighbour and the Ward method (the hierarchical clustering method), the both with the Euclid distance. The hierarchical method of the farthest neighbour divided fifteen states into the four clusters in 1995, twenty-five states into the six clusters in 2004 and twenty-seven states into the six clusters in 2007. The Ward method divided these states into the three clusters in 1995, into the six clusters in 2004 and into the three clusters in 2007.

Population development IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC IN 1945 - 2008 and comparison with the EUROPEAN UNION
Pevná, Helena ; Langhamrová, Jitka (advisor) ; Löster, Tomáš (referee)
Work provides an overview of the major demographic indicators, the Czech Republic and the European Union. The first part, the reader may meet with some key demographic data and looking at history in obtaining such data. The second part describes the development of the population of the Czech Republic during the years after World War II until 2008. Further the thesis focuses on the demographics of the Member States of the Union during the years 1990 to 2007. The last part deals with the cluster analysis of EU member states, which is an effort based on life expectancy in 2002 and 2007 to assess the status of the Czech Republic in the EU. The aim should be to work groups and comparing selected demographic indicators for Czech Republic and the European Union.

Development of Life Expectancy in Czech Republic in 1960-2008
Langhamrová, Jana ; Arltová, Markéta (advisor) ; Löster, Tomáš (referee)
The goal of this elaboration is to point out changes in mortality that were responsible for longer life expectancy and lower infant mortality. The trend of basic indicators that contributed to changes in mortality was assessed based on the time series data available on the website of Czech Statistical Office. The life expectancy paradox and the necessary level of birth rate and life expectancy to maintain level of simple reproduction was calculated based on the trend of life expectancy in selected age groups of men and women, infant mortality coefficient and actual birth rate in the Czech Republic during 1920-2008. The elaboration describes in detail the indicators and methods of calculating mortality and pays special attention to life tables and possible ways of flattening mortality rate curves. It also compares life expectancy and healthy life years in the Czech Republic and European countries and describes the term of healthy life years and the most common way of their calculation. In all monitored countries, women's expectation of life at birth is longer than that of men. In the Czech Republic, the difference is now about six years. Life expectancy in all countries keeps going up, with the exception of e.g. the countries of the former Soviet Union where life expectancy has been fluctuating for the past 20 years. Individual countries are compared based on data from the Eurostat database and Human Mortality Database. The annex shows methods of calculating life tables and possible ways of flattening mortality rate curves and provides an overview of the most common models of flattening and extrapolating mortality rate curves. The elaboration also has an index of used terms and a Czech-English vocabulary.

Comparison of software products in the field of regression analysis
Kramulová, Jana ; Řezanková, Hana (advisor) ; Löster, Tomáš (referee)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to compare the quality of nine software products in the field of regression analysis. Except for four statistical programs also two econometric programs representatives, two programs focused on mathematic modelling and Microsoft Excel are included into analysis. Programs are evaluated from different points of view (for example data import, work with missing values, quality of output, graphical options and so on). In the thesis regression analysis is used as a method for demonstration of dependence of ecological footprint on GDP per capita in world countries and also dependence of ecological reserve or deficit on biocapacity. Programs are evaluated by comparison analysis.

Statistical Analysis and Multivariate Methods in MS Excel
Postler, Štěpán ; Löster, Tomáš (advisor) ; Mazouch, Petr (referee)
The aim of this thesis is creating an application in Microsoft Office Excel 2003 that allows user to solve problems using some statistical analysis methods. This application is provided in stat.xls file, which is the main part of the thesis. The XLS file enables Excel to applicate methods of univariate and bivariate categorical analysis of frequencies, univariate, bivariate and even multivariate analysis of quantitative data and index analysis of economic data. To applicate the methods the file uses various forms, Excel R1C1 and Array formulas, macros and VBA code. The file is executable with Microsoft Office Excel 2003 or newer versions. The file is suitable mainly as utility for study of statistical methods and it can also be used with an extensive data file. In addition to the stat.xls file, a part of the thesis is also a text output, which contains description of the chosen statistical analysis methods, description of creating the file stat.xls itself and illustration of the file's functions on specific examples.

Grafické metody analýzy hromadných dat
Nosková, Barbora ; Pecáková, Iva (advisor) ; Löster, Tomáš (referee)
Cílem mé práce je poukázat na různé možnosti grafické analýzy hromadných dat. Pro lepší představení grafických analýz jsem do své práce zařadila nejen popisy grafů, ale také jejich ukázky, které jsem vytvořila v různých statistických programech. První, teoretická část, je věnována základním principům konstrukce grafů a terminologii. Další část práce je věnována grafům, které jsou výsledkem třídění spojitých a nespojitých veličin. Následující kapitola obsahuje grafy pro identifikací odlehlých pozorování a dále se zabývám grafy, které nám umožňují porovnat naměřené hodnoty s nějakým známým statistickým rozdělením. Na závěr práce jsem uvedla některé grafy, které se mi nepodařilo zařadit do žádné z předchozích skupin, přesto najdou v grafických analýzách hromadných dat své použití.
