Unsupervised learning
Kantor, Jan ; Sáblík, Václav (referee) ; Honzík, Petr (advisor)
The purpose of this work has been to describe some techniques which are normally used for cluster data analysis process of unsupervised learning. The thesis consists of two parts. The first part of thesis has been focused on some algorithms theory describing advantages and disadvantages of each discussed method and validation of clusters quality. There are many ways how to estimate and compute clustering quality based on internal and external knowledge which is mentioned in this part. A good technique of clustering quality validation is one of the most important parts in cluster analysis. The second part of thesis deals with implementation of different clustering techniques and programs on real datasets and their comparison with true dataset partitioning and published related work.

Misinformation & Pegasus Project: Case study of India
Khurana, Aditya ; Střítecký, Vít (advisor) ; Schottli, Jivanta (referee)
This thesis analyses the mainstream media's reporting around Pegasus spyware in India and the subsequent formation of revisionist networks showing solidarity with news circulated by mainstream media on social media. This research on news media coverage of misinformation spread around Project Pegasus in India classifies and clusters misinformation supplied by the mainstream media through their reporting. Next, the thesis explores the emergence of revisionist social media networks from such coverage as a response to the call to action in the mass media. The case study method allows the author to offer focused insights into the misinformed mass media's coverage of the issue. K means clustering is used to identify different narratives in the news report dataset, followed by text mining using Voyant Tools to summarise the narratives. Social Media Analysis is done to identify and bring forth the revisionist hashtags deployed by the mainstream media to further their narrative. The findings of the project highlight that considerable parts of the population are aware of notable misinformation around Pegasus spyware. However, this understanding did not translate into the call for action by the media houses across social media (Twitter). The weak correlation between Indian media reports and social media...

Monte-Carlo simulation of photodissociation spectra from molecular beam experiment
Košťál, Pavel ; Fárník, Michal (advisor) ; Havlíček, Josef (referee)
Within the framework of my BSc Thesis I became familiar with a unique molecular beam apparatus for cluster studies. I have learned about clusters and molecular beams, mass spectrometry, photodissociation and molecular dynamics. My specific task was to generace several computer programs for data acquisition and evaluation of~the~present experiments: (1) A program for TOF to mass spectra conversion. This program facilitated immediate evaluation of~the~measured mass spectra. (2) A program for TOF spectra conversion into the kinetic energy distribution KED of the fragments, which provides immediate information about the studied photochemical processes. The immediate information provided by both these programs enable a more effective control of the experiment. (3) Finally, I have modified Monte-Carlo simulation program. This program serves the ultimate TOF→ KED conversion of the experimental data. All the programs were tested with photodissociation of a well studied system of HBr cluster, and they have shown a good performance.

Mass spectrometric and optical spectroscopy studies of clusters and nanoparticles in molecular beams
Moriová, Kamila ; Fárník, Michal (advisor) ; Kopecký, Vladimír (referee)
Title: Mass spectrometric and optical spectroscopy studies of clusters and nano- particles in molecular beams Author: Kamila Moriová Institue: Institute of Physics of Charles University Supervisor: doc. Mgr. Michal Fárník, Ph.D., DSc., J. Heyrovský Institute of Phy- sical Chemistry of the CAS Consultant: RNDr. Václav Profant, Ph.D., Institute of Physics of Charles Uni- versity Abstract: Condensation of ices on the surface of dust grains with activation of these ices by cosmic rays in interstellar medium can lead to formation of complex chemical species. In the present work we primarily examine ammonia clusters, which represent a model system of ice particles. Large ammonia clusters were prepared in molecular beams and pass through a pickup chamber in which me- thanol molecules were captured. After electron ionization of (NH3)N (CH3OH)M clusters, a mass spectrum of ionic fragments was obtained in which fragments with methanol (NH3)n(CH3OH)mH+ predominated over the pure ammonia frag- ments (NH3)nH+ : at least one methanol molecule was present in 75 % fragments. This is in disproportion with the composition of the original neutral precursors, which contain less than 4 % of methanol. Based on the measurement results, we suggest that ammonia is ionized in the first place resulting in the NH+ 4 ion core solvated...

Study of physical and chemical properties of surface-modified tungsten oxide
Polášek, Jan ; Mašek, Karel (advisor)
Title: Study of physical and chemical properties of surface-modified tungsten oxide Author: Jan Polášek Department: Department of Surface and Plasma Science Supervisor: Doc. RNDr. Karel Mašek, Dr., Department of Surface and Plasma Science Abstract: This work can be divided into two parts. In the first part, we examine possibilities of preparation of monocrystalline tungsten and tungsten oxide na- noclusters by means of magnetron sputtering with gas aggregation. Clusters are prepared in the non-reactive (Ar) and reactive (Ar + O2) atmosphere and heated after the deposition or during the flight by IR radiation. Influence of oxygen in the aggregation process was described and possibilities of generating crystalline tungsten and tungsten oxide clusters were found. In the second part, we study reactivity of tungsten oxide layers, pure and doped with rare metals (Pt, Au), deposited on the silicon wafer and etched carbon, towards partial methanol oxi- dation. Influence of carbon substrate and metal doppants on reactivity was found and described, along with mofrological and chemical changes that occurs in the sample during the proces. Keywords: catalysis, tungsten oxide, clusters, partial oxidation of methanol, etched carbon 1
