Solution of selected problems from operations research in Matlab
Dubový, Vojtěch ; Zouhar, Jan (advisor) ; Borovička, Adam (referee)
The bachelor thesis is dealing with the solution of optimalization tasks selected from operational research within the framework of the general computing environment Matlab. The reader is given information about working environment, basic procedure of dealing with practical tasks and problem solving within operational research. Tasks solutions were achieved by taking advantage of some Toolboxes, for example Optimalisation Toolbox and Yalmip Toolbox. The focus of the work is to present readers with a compact volume of knowledge so that they are able to deal with optimalization tasks in the computing environment Matlab.
Volatility Modeling of the PX Index
Dvořáčková, Anna ; Borovička, Adam (advisor) ; Zouhar, Jan (referee)
This thesis is focused on modeling of the real financial time series of the PX Index using linear and nonlinear volatility models. In the theoretical part the major terms and typical properties of the financial time series are presented and it is followed by the theoretical description of the linear and nonlinear volatility models including a general volatility model building. The key part of this thesis is the practical application of chosen linear and nonlinear volatility models on the time series of log returns of the PX Index. By using the real data set we verify if the volatility models are really capable of explaining the theoretical properties of the financial time series, such as volatility clustering, leptokurtic distribution and leverage effect.
Bootstrap in Econometrics
Mitterpach, Róbert ; Zouhar, Jan (advisor) ; Šindelářová, Irena (referee)
Aim of this thesis is to introduce the reader to the basic bootstrap techniques used in econometrics, to present their variations and importance. Results of the ordinary least squares model, residual bootstrap and case resampling bootstrap will be presented and compared on cross-sectional data and time series from small numbered random subsample from the available data. Bootstrap was shown to improve numerical performance of ordinary least squares model.
Informační sítě na trhu práce a teorie her
Benešová, Anita ; Dlouhý, Martin (advisor) ; Zouhar, Jan (referee)
The use of personal contacts and the role of education as a signal of the Worker's productivity are two important aspects of the job search process. The aim of this thesis is to develop a model that combines both approaches. We distinguish between random and strategic models of job information networks. In the former case the structure of the network is given, while in the latter it depends on the strategic decision of the Workers. We present a strategic model of network formation with two types of Workers who are able to signal their productivity by the level of their education. When applying for a job they have two possibilities of contacting the Employer: a direct application and an indirect application through a friend who currently works for the Employer.
Multiple Marginalization and its Impact on Supply Chains' Efficiency
Zouhar, Jan ; Fiala, Petr (advisor) ; Cahlík, Tomáš (referee) ; Ivaničová, Zlatica (referee)
Double (or multiple) marginalization is often identified as the main source of a decentralized supply chain's (SC's) inefficiency. In its core lies the fact that if the agents constituting the SC choose their output prices according to the golden rule of profit maximization (that normally applies to a single firm that produces independently and sells directly to the end consumer), the prices in the SC tend to spiral up to an inefficient (equilibrium) level where both the consumer surplus and the SC's total profit are diminished. The aim of this paper is to analyze and quantify the impact of multiple marginalization on the behaviour of SC's that vary with respect to their structure (i.e. the number of agents and the links between them) and the shape of their cost and demand functions. The main gauge of this impact is the efficiency of a SC, defined as the ratio of the profit of a SC whose agents behave according to the model of multiple marginalization, and the potential profit of the SC (i.e. the maximum profit attainable under the conditions of complete coordination of prices within the chain). Besides efficiency, some other properties of a SC are studied, e.g. the distribution of the SC's profit among the individual agents or cost externalities within the SC. Three different models of multiple marginalization are studied in the paper. The first one is a linear model of multiple marginalization (i.e. a model with linear demand and cost functions); in this simplified setting we derived explicit formulae for values of the studied indicators. The second model is analogous to the first one only that it allows for non-linear demand and cost functions; in this case, the analysis is carried out using computer experiments with numeric algorithms. The last one is a dynamic model of multiple marginalization which studies the abovementioned price spiral through multi-agent simulation.
Heuristic and metaheuristic methods for travelling salesman problem
Burdová, Jana ; Kalčevová, Jana (advisor) ; Zouhar, Jan (referee)
Minimal length of a travelling salesman's problem had been studied in this diploma these. Travelling salesman must come trough each place just once and then go back to the starting place. This problem can be illustrated as a problem of graph theory, such that places are the vertices, roads are the edges, distances of roads are the lengths of edges. The optimal travelling salesman's problem tour is the shortest Hamiltionian cycle in the graph. It is a classical NP-complete problem. There is no algorithm that solves this problem in polynomial time. This problem can be solved by using various approximation algorithms, they offer less time consumption and lowest quality than optimization. This diploma these had been dedicated to approximation algorithms, for example: nearest neighbor method, minimal spanning tree method, Christofide's method, 2-opt., genetic algorithm, etc.
Application of optimization methods in e-shopping
Hollayová, Nela ; Zouhar, Jan (advisor) ; Fábry, Jan (referee)
The subject of the thesis is the optimization of one the key processes in a book e-shop, namely delivery of goods from suppliers. In particular, we focus on the problems of selection of suppliers and the subsequent route optimization in daily pick-ups of orders. The proposed solution uses a combination of two mixed integer programming models. The model for supplier selection was designed so as to reflect the empiric approaches that are currently employed in the e-shop; the model for route optimization is a modified version of the canonical travelling salesman problem. On the basis of achieved results, we presented effective procedures for solving both of the aforementioned problems and suggested their implementation into the e-shop's enterprise resource planning system.
Analysis of labor in the shop building materials
Valná, Hana ; Kalčevová, Jana (advisor) ; Zouhar, Jan (referee)
The present thesis shows the manner of distributing workers on shifts with regular work load but uneven work schedules. It is generally known as the covering or set-covering problem. The present paper describes a way to solve it with mathematical modelling and programs for possible planning of workers on shifts. The issue is documented on a case of an existing company.
Scoring Models in Finance (Skóringové modely ve financích)
Rychnovský, Michal ; Zouhar, Jan (advisor) ; Kalčevová, Jana (referee)
The aim of the present work is to describe the application of the logistic regression model to the field of probability of default modeling, and provide a brief introduction to the scoring development process used in financial practice. We start by introducing the theoretical background of the logistic regression model; followed by a consequent derivation of three most common scoring models. Then we present a formal definition of the Gini coefficient as a diversification power measure and derive the Somers-type formulas for its estimation. Finally, the key part of this work gives an overview of the whole scoring development process illustrated on the examples of real business data.
Scheduling in systems with multiple machines
Černý, Jan ; Pelikán, Jan (advisor) ; Zouhar, Jan (referee)
This paper focuses on characterization of scheduling in systems with one or multiple machines. There are different types of tasks given, with which we can encounter in scheduling. At the beginning, introduce basic concepts of production scheduling. The second chapter is a flowshop problem with its history and projections for the flowshop problem. In the next chapter is a modification of flowshop problem called hybrid flowshop, which is divided according flexibility to hybrid flowshop with processing flexibility and hybrid flowshop with routing flexibility. Another chapter is open shop problem, which have some differences compare with the above mentioned types. The last chapter is a job shop, stating in a graphical solution for two machines and a brief description of the algorithm Shifting bottleneck.
