Prediction of Protein Stability upon Mutations Using Machine Learning
Malinka, František ; Martínek, Tomáš (referee) ; Bendl, Jaroslav (advisor)
This thesis describes a new approach to the detection of protein stability change upon amino acid mutations. The main goal is to create a new meta-tool, which combines the outputs of eight well-established prediction tools and due to suitable method of consensus making, it is able to improve the overall prediction accuracy. The optimal strategy of combination of outputs of these tools is found by using a various number of machine learning methods. From all tested machine learning methods, KStar showed the highest prediction accuracy on the training dataset compiled from experimentally validated mutations originating from ProTherm database. Due to this reason, it is chosen as an optimal prediction technique. The general prediction abilities is validated on the testing dataset composed of multi-point amino acid mutations extracted also from ProTherm database. Since the multi-point mutations were not used for training any of integrated tools, we suppose that such comparison is objective. As a result, the developed meta-tool based on KStar technique improves the correlation coefficient about 0.130 on the training dataset and 0.239 on the testing dataset, respectively (the comparison is being made against the most succesful integrated tool). Based on the obtained results, it is possible to claim that machine learning methods are suitable technique for the problems from area of protein predictions.

Application Demonstrating the Fingerprint Processing
Malinka, František ; Kubát, David (referee) ; Dluhoš, Ondřej (advisor)
The goal of this thesis is to create a program which will clearly and comprehensively demonstrate individual phases of fingerprint processing. The program is implemented in C++ language with using of QT cross-platform library for creating user interface. To obtain a fingerprints in real time is used Lumidigm sensor, which were scanned 100 fingerprints in total from 10 different people and the results were evaluated.
