The Analysis of mutes on trombone and trumpet timbre
Košař, Vojtěch ; Mojdl, Edgar (referee) ; Jirásek, Ondřej (advisor)
This work deals with the sound mute issues, specifically how they affect the timbre of a trombone and a trumpet, their sound spectrum, levels of individual harmonic tones, the presence of formants and the directional characteristics of individual tones played in various dynamics. A part of this work is also focused on the theoretical description of a trombone and a trumpet, including their brief history, their classification, the parts they are consisting of and the timbre. The theoretical part is further dealing with the description of mathematic functions like FFT or LPC analysis, which have been implemented in the MATLAB environment when creating the graphic dependents for this theme.

Analysis of Time-Varying Spectrum of Pianos
Smělý, Pavel ; Rajmic, Pavel (referee) ; Jirásek, Ondřej (advisor)
This work focuses on an analysis of a time-varying spectrum of pianos. The beginning of the work deals with the gradual evolution of the piano, aiming at timbre and design, and it analyzes in detail its individual parts and their influence on the sound spectrum. The theoretical part also concentrates on the issue of harmonic analysis in both the musical conception of timber and the usage of mathematical signal processing methods that make this analysis possible. Another part deals with practical tasks of the work such as a description of an application and functions created in the interface of MATLAB for exploring the time-varying spectrum of tones, description of the method and procedure of the measuring of three concert grand pianos. The work also analyzes, by supporting it with practical examples and by comparing the measured pianos, the most important acoustic phenomena that originate from the production of tones in the instrument; it describes the timber of individual instruments, and it gives recommendations.

Acoustic detection of starlings through artificial intelligence
Zezula, Benjamin ; Vlachová Hutová, Eliška (referee) ; Marcoň, Petr (advisor)
To protect the vineyards from starlings is very costly and ineffective with the available resources over a period of time. In my project, I have designed a detection module that relays information about the flock location in the vineyard to the control module and thus produces scaring. I have designed two kinds of detection modules, which are compared. The first variant consists of a single directional microphone that rotates and sequentially senses the entire area of the vineyard. The second variant consists of four microphones, each one is directed to the cardinal point and based on the intensity of sound, the module will provide the information about the direction where the flock is located. Both detection modules process the signal in a Raspberry Pi 4 single board computer using an artificial neural network algorithm powered by MobileNetV2 architecture.

Comparison of methods for RGB spectrogram construction of DNA
Postránecká, Tereza ; Provazník, Ivo (referee) ; Kubicová, Vladimíra (advisor)
This thesis discusses about possibilities of construction colour DNA spectrograms and about patterns which can be detected there. Spectrograms as tools of spectral analysis give us a simultaneous view of the local frequency throughout the nucleotide sequence. They are suitable for gene identification or gene regions identification, determination of global character about whole chromosomes and also give us a chance for the discovery of yet unknown regions of potential significance. For purpose of this kind of DNA analysis is possible to use digital signal processing methods. We can apply them on only after conversion of DNA sequence to numerical representation. Selection of correct numerical representation affects how well will be reflected biological features in numerical record which we need for another use in digital signal analysis.

Fourier transformation and spectrogram analysis of DNA sequences
Krejčí, Michal ; Provazník, Ivo (referee) ; Maděránková, Denisa (advisor)
Various methods of DNA sequences modifications for frequency analysis and basic characteristics of DNA are described in the theoretical part of this thesis. Tricolor spectrograms, created by short time Fourier transform help us to recognize some characteristic patterns in DNA sequences. Practical part of this work deals with developed programme which generates spectrograms and analyse them. Last part deals with the analysis of selected sequences of C. elegans genome. Some patterns are related to data of public databases such as NCBI. Various patterns are explained from the biological nature, which relates to chromosome structure and protein coding regions. Another well recognised patterns, tandem repetitions composed of satellites, microsatellites and minisatelites are described by spectrograms as well.

Selected Aspects of Statistical Significance Testing in Time-Frequency Analysis
Klejmová, Eva ; Kohl,, Zdeněk (referee) ; Fidrmuc, Jarko (referee) ; Poměnková, Jitka (advisor)
Přeložená dizertační práce se zabývá analýzou a posouzením kvality odhadu frekvenční a časově-frekvenční transformace dat a formulaci doporučení pro práci s metodami. Při použití těchto metod vyvstává otázka, jak vyhodnotit, které složky spektrogramu jsou statisticky významné a které nikoli. V této práci analyzujeme vlastnosti standardních testů statistické významnosti. Diskutujeme o jejich výhodách a nevýhodách s ohledem na heteroskedastický charakter dat. Na základě našich experimentů jsou v práci navrženy dva typy testovacích metod, které snižují negativní aspekty standardních testů. Práce jen zakončena vytvořením rámce pro filtrování dat pomocí námi navržených metod.

Establishment of database of musical instruments recordings
Lavický, Vojtěch ; Mácha, Tomáš (referee) ; Rášo, Ondřej (advisor)
In this Bachelor thesis you can find created database of musical instruments. Recordings are descripted by it's waveforms and sectrograms. It may serve for example for removing noise from signal. A general data of instruments are descripted here. Human earing and his perception of sound is discuss here. There are also included parameters of sound itself and theory of calculations. Frequency and dynamic range are written to every instrument in database. These are consequently range by its size. As a part of the thesis is program with graphical user interface. The program include all the recordings from database and is open to any other recordings.

Spectrum analysis of the violin
Hanzálek, Pavel ; Smékal, Zdeněk (referee) ; Jirásek, Ondřej (advisor)
This work focuses on the problems of sound spectrum analysis and directional characteristics of the violin. The beginning of the work deals with the development of the violin, generally about timbre and directional characteristics. The theoretical part also deals with different types of sound spectra and LPC analysis on general. The practical part deals with practical tasks of work such as a description of the application created in MATLAB for examination of the time spectrum of tones, FFT spectra, formants by LPC analysis and display of directional characteristics. It also deals with the describing the methods, the process of sensing and measuring two different violins with different types of strings and age of corpus.

The Program simulating the mutes of brass instruments
Košař, Vojtěch ; Indrák, Michal (referee) ; Jirásek, Ondřej (advisor)
This Master’s thesis deals with the creation of a program that simulates an impact of sound mutes on the timbre of a trombone and a trumpet. The simulation in the Reaktor 6 environment is based on an analysis of this impact which compares the spectra and formant regions retrieved from the MATLAB environment. The analysis takes into account also the impact on harmonic overtones. Another part of this work is focusing on the theory of a trombone and a trumpet, their brief history, the parts they are consisting of and the principle of tone formation. In the Reaktor 6 environment there has been created also a sampler functioning as a virtual instrument for the trumpet and the trombon. The last part of the work deals with creating a simulation program with its structure and evaluation.
