Movie Recommender System
Janko, Pavel ; Zbořil, František (referee) ; Šůstek, Martin (advisor)
This thesis primarily addresses various methods of constructing a system for movie recommendations. Both basic and advanced techniques required for creating a recommender system are also covered in the thesis. The core of the thesis is designing, implementing and experimenting with a system for movie recommendations based upon the data originating from publicly accessible datasets. In order to predict ratings that the user would give to movies after watching them, the system utilizes a factorization model based on collaborative filtering. This thesis also describes the relation between model hyperparameter configuration and prediction accuracy, experiments that were conducted in order to further improve the model accuracy and finally compares the implemented model with existing solutions.

Film Suggestions Based on CSFD User Profiles
Janko, Pavel ; Šůstek, Martin (referee) ; Uhlíř, Václav (advisor)
This thesis covers the topic of utilizing neural nets for recommending movies. The principle of using neural nets with machine learning and both the general and the advanced techniques of creating a recommender system are also covered in the thesis. The core of the thesis is the design, implementation and finally the evaluation of a system for movie recommendations based upon the data mined from the user profiles from the ČSFD (Czech-Slovak film database). In order to accomplish this goal the system utilizies an explicit factorization model based on collaborative filtering between items to predict an accurate rating that the user would presumably give to a movie after watching it. This thesis also describes the relation between dataset size and prediction accuracy and demonstrates this accuracy by analyzing user feedback.

The Technology of Subtitles in Films and other Media
Tobiášová, Eliška ; Jašková, Jana (referee) ; Froehling, Kenneth (advisor)
Účelem bakalářské práce je prozkoumat technologii titulkování. Ta je rozebrána historického, současného a budoucího hlediska. V práci jsou zmíněny i specifické způsoby využití titulků pro určité typy médií a součástí je i rozbor cílových skupin, pro které jsou titulky určeny. Kromě teoretického rozboru technologie titulkování je na závěr proveden experiment, jehož účelem je porovnat přesnost titulkování mezi strojově generovanými titulky, profesionální prací a amatérskou prací. Toho je dosaženo porovnáváním titulků ze stejných filmových scén vedle sebe v tabulkách. Výsledek výzkumu, který je odvozen na základě kritérií, zmíněných v práci, ukazuje, že profesionální titulky jsou nejspolehlivější cestou.

Mobile App for Pairing Movies to Watch
Tetauer, Pavel ; Chlubna, Tomáš (referee) ; Kapinus, Michal (advisor)
The goal of this thesis was to create a mobile application for the Android platform that will allow users to solve the problem of choosing movies in different groups of people. Based on the chosen preferences in the group, the application offers movies for rating to each member. Users rate these movies like “I want to see” / “I don’t want to see" and the application finds full and partial matches based on this rating. Users can display these matches and group creators have the option to select one of the found matches for watching. Thesis describes the process of designing and implementation of this application and an important part of the work is also testing, where, based on feedback, a future development plan was presented.

Senjuková, Tereza ; Šoltys, Otakar (advisor) ; Dominik, Šimon (referee)
The diploma thesis is focused at mythology of the current myths and basic semiotic features that appear in these films. It analyses and uncovers mythological structures that create a platform for the mores, and derives conclusions about the present society. It chose 30 most successful movies as a muster to analyze. It is divided in two main parts; the first one is focused at mythological aspects. Firstly, it describes the most frequent myths that appear in the majority of the analyzed movies. In the next chapters, it analyzes briefly some specific movies and points out their most distinct features. The second part is focused at semiotic features that are used by the film makers and tries to explain their meaning. The last part of the diploma thesis compares the Euro-American film production with that of Asia (especially China).
