Some problems of exponential smoothing
Čurda, David ; Hanzák, Tomáš (advisor) ; Komárek, Arnošt (referee)
In this work the several exponential smoothing type methods are briefly described, which are often used to smoothing and forecasting in the time series. Selected problems, that occur in described methods, are presented and in some cases there are the suggestions to their solution, which should tend to more suitable smoothing or to the better forecasts. It's shown how the methods are applied on different data and how the forecasts differ from each other. In conclusion the quality of modifications is evaluated.

L1 Regression
Čelikovská, Klára ; Maciak, Matúš (advisor) ; Hlubinka, Daniel (referee)
This thesis is focused on the L1 regression, a possible alternative to the ordinary least squares regression. L1 regression replaces the least squares estimation with the least absolute deviations estimation, thus generalizing the sample median in the linear regres- sion model. Unlike the ordinary least squares regression, L1 regression enables loosening of certain assumptions and leads to more robust estimates. Fundamental theoretical re- sults, including the asymptotic distribution of regression coefficient estimates, hypothesis testing, confidence intervals and confidence regions, are derived. This method is then compared to the ordinary least squares regression in a simulation study, with a focus on heavy-tailed distributions and the possible presence of outlying observations. 1
