Cognitive Game Battery: Assessing and Identifying Deficits in Memory, Attention, Problem-Solving, and Decision-Making Skills
Češka, Ondřej ; Malik, Aamir Saeed (referee) ; Hussain, Yasir (advisor)
Cílem této práce je neinvazivní posouzení vybraných kognitivních domén (pozornost, paměť, rozhodování) pomocí nové mobilní aplikace vyvinuté za tímto účelem. Posuzování kognitivních nedostatků je důležité pro prevenci neurokognitivních poruch. Byly analyzovány existující posuzovací úlohy a na jejich základě byla navržena a úspěšně implementována kognitivní herní baterii sestávající ze 3 mobilních her. Aplikace je určena pro platformu Android a byla vyvinuta v Unity engine. Byl vytvořen systém pro sběr a uchovávání herních dat a jejich následné zhodnocení za pomoci cloudové dostupnosti. Jeho spolehlivost byla posouzena na základě vlastního sběru dat a poznatků existujících studií. Vyvinutá aplikace přináší jiný pohled na posuzování kognitivních nedostatků, porovnává uživatelem dosažené skóre s ostatními hráči a poskytuje mu detailní zpětnou vazbu.

Evolutionary Circuit Design by Means of Genetic Programming
Synák, Maroš ; Hurta, Martin (referee) ; Bidlo, Michal (advisor)
Tato práce zkoumá aplikaci genetického programování (GP) pro návrh elektronických obvodů, zaměřuje se na sinusové a obdélníkové oscilátory a diskriminátory tónů, s použitím Pythonu a PySpice. Cílem je znovu vytvořit aspekty základní práce Johna Kozy v tomto oboru. Hlavním cílem je posoudit, zda může GP generovat pokročilé elektronické návrhy efektivněji než tradiční metody, přizpůsobujíc přitom Kozy genetické operace - výběr, křížení, mutaci - moderním výzvám v návrhu obvodů. Metodologie zahrnuje vývoj modelů GP pro simulaci evolučního návrhu obvodů, hodnocených prostřednictvím kontrolovaných experimentů. Tyto experimenty testují schopnost modelů vyvíjet se od základních po složité konfigurace, které splňují specifické elektronické funkce. Tato studie nejenže přezkoumává, ale také upravuje Kozy metody, zahrnuje strategie více závislé na počátečním nastavení embrya, aby řídily evoluční proces v generování cílených návrhů. Kromě toho studie zkoumá nedávné metodologie využívané v podobných aplikacích, aby zvýšila adaptabilitu a efektivitu GP. Výsledky ukazují, že zatímco GP může účinně podporovat a zlepšovat návrh elektronických obvodů pro sinusové oscilátory a diskriminátory tónů, jeho aplikace na generování obdélníkových oscilátorů narazí na omezení a vážné problémy. To zdůrazňuje oblasti pro potenciální zlepšení v genetické diverzitě a zdokonalení algoritmů. Celkově tato práce zdůrazňuje potenciál genetického programování v revoluci návrhu elektronických obvodů, což naznačuje další průzkum a zdokonalení Kozy metodologií, které by mohly rozšířit aplikovatelnost GP v oboru. Tato práce představuje jak pokračování, tak evoluci jeho průkopnických úsilí, čímž otevírá cestu pro budoucí inovace v elektronickém inženýrství.

Process control improvement
Čupera, Petr ; Kotek, Luboš (referee) ; Fiala, Alois (advisor)
The diploma thesis deals with the improvement of non-compliance management processes in the production company supplying the railway industry. The theoretical part explains the basic characteristics and principles of process control. In the practical part, the current state of non-compliance management processes is analyzed from many points of view and potentials for improvement ire identified. Based on identified potentials, specific measures are proposed to improve the current situation and also give the expected benefits to company after the proposed measures have been put in place.

Configuration management
Vala, Martin ; Kotek, Luboš (referee) ; Fiala, Alois (advisor)
The aim of this master thesis is to resolve the problems based on requirements of the company. Initially a theoretical part was prepared which is focused on configuration management and related terms of a particular problem. After theoretical introduction it was systematically approached to the problem and a possible solution was proposed based on analysis of the current situation taking into account configuration management. The solution was to create a technical-organizational guideline which is a tool for the elimination of errors of employees and for general overview. The final technical-organizational guideline can be found in the attachment and in the main part of this thesis describes development of the guideline.

Design of equipment for steam generation and superheating
Jakeš, Martin ; Gottvald, Jakub (referee) ; Nekvasil, Richard (advisor)
This thesis describes the design of a new circuit for the production of superheated steam instead of the original heat exchanger, which showed frequent failure. In the introduction is disassambling the problems of the existing heat exchanger and the proposed method of solving the problem. Proposed is a new process circuit consisting of a heat exchanger to heat the steam, separator and heat exchanger for superheated stream. Gradually, the work both heat exchangers are designed thermal and strenght. In the thermal part is modeled all process circuit and calculated in the program ChemCad. The strength calculation is solved analytically according to EN 13 445, then all dimensions of heat exchangers are optimized. In the conclusion is verified by metod of finite element critical part of the exchanger. After successful completion of the design thermal and strength calculation was made relevant drawing documentation.

Performance of birds in model cognitive tasks: a cross-taxon comparison
Schlőglová, Nikola ; Exnerová, Alice (advisor) ; Kahounová, Hana (referee)
Bird cognition is an immensely complex topic. Many factors influence how birds acquire, process and act upon obtained information. Some bird groups outshine others regarding their cognitive skills, and the underlying reasons for these differences are extensively researched and discussed. Birds naturally face varying environmental factors that could have driven the evolution of specialised cognitive adaptations not generalisable across all contexts. In contrast, some birds perform well in a broad range of cognitive tasks and may possess general intelligence. Model cognitive tasks help us gain standardised data on birds' cognitive performances to compare them across different taxa, which enables us to identify potential parallels. This thesis covers selected model cognitive tasks: string-pulling tasks, reasoning by exclusion tasks, transitive inference tasks, tasks related to mirror use and reversal learning tasks, for which it analyses and compares the performance of both well-studied and understudied bird taxa. The thesis describes the selected cognitive tasks, summarises available data and highlights correlations between birds' performances and other factors while discussing possible explanations for their varying performances. Finally, the thesis addresses the question of general intelligence...

Students' creativity in designing own simple experiments in biology lessons
MARTINCOVÁ, Kateřina
The aim of the diploma thesis, was to design the inquiry biology task, in which pupils could develop their imagination and creativity, and design their own experiment. For this purpose, a task has been proposed to verify the water needs of a plant, and the ways in which it goes trough the body of the plant. Required data were obtained using a didactic test focused on the single steps characteristic for inquiry based tasks. Another aim was to create a coding tool, used to identify differences between solution of individual pupils. Therefore a simple coding tool has been devised to identify and assess the level of creativity. The research took place at a primary school in České Budějovice. Pupils from three classes of the seventh grade were included in the survey, and a total of 53 pupils participated. The results showed that the overall success of pupils in didactic test was 47,37 %, and from the perspective of creativity itself an avarage value of 37,37 % was found. In terms of creativity pupils in this research had the highest success in the originality of designing the experiment without knowledge of tools, as well as in the elaboration of the experimental design with knowledge of tools. Pupils also achieved a relatively good results in elaboration of drawing the experiment without the knowledge of tools. On the other hand a very low success rate of pupils was found in the ability to propose further solutions to the problem, both in terms of originality and elaboration. The reason for these results could be the difficulty of completing a didactic test in which a guided type of inquiry was used, with which some pupils may not have had much experience. It was comfirmed by interviews with teachers that they involve the elements of inquiry and creative teaching rather irregularly.
