Diploma thesis has an aim to present to students of elementary school graphical methods of relief printing by method of methodological video, for better understanding and imagination of students. The theoretical part occupies with graphic, the fenomena, that accompanies us from prehistoric times. The thesis is going to present method of relief printing, its development and important authors of relief printing. It makes the students familiar with the most important graphic works in history and makes their analysis. It presents the most common subjects and social aspects of graphical production in the final part. The practical part elaborates technology of instructive video and following application for students of various age and its final marking their work. The conclusion of thesis create supplements of the practical part, examples of models and final works.

My thesis deals with the buildings of the castle and the church of Saint John of Nepomuk in Vyklantice which was built between 1722 and 1729 by Jan Jáchym Harrach. Firstly, the work presents the history of the Vyklantice manor and the history of both buildings. Description of the present state of the castle and the church is confronted with photographs from the 1970s. Finally, the work focuses on the genealogy of the Harrachs family and other estates owned by Jan Jáchym and his brother Ferdinand Markvart Harrach. The core of the thesis is in the following chapters which deal with a question of authorship of the Vyklantice constructions. The first criticism has been made on actual addition of researchers who attribute these objects to K. I. Dientzenhofer or J. B. Santini-Aichl and J. L. von Hildebrandt. The survey shows that the buildings in Vyklantice are probably the work of a local builder, as objects do not show the quality of the artistic creation of the architects mentioned above.

[pt] Esta pesquisa é um estudo e análise do relato de Lc 7,11-17, mais conhecido como a ressurreição do filho da viúva de Naim, procurando entender o sentimento de compaixão de Jesus ao ver a mãe viúva que estava levando seu único filho para ser sepultado. Este sentimento foi definido por Lucas com o emprego do verbo splangxizomai (ser movido de compaixão). Foram estudados os critérios para o emprego deste verbo na perícope e nas demais ocorrências no Evangelho de Lucas. Para a análise e interpretação de Lc 7,11-17 foram utilizados elementos essenciais do método histórico-crítico. Portanto, foi feita a análise diacrônica do texto e, ao analisar a forma com que Lucas emprega o verbo splangxizomai em seu Evangelho, a análise foi sincrônica, considerando o texto em sua forma final e revelando o caminho de provocação do leitor que é desenhado pela estrutura de Lc 7,11-17 ligada ao Evangelho como um todo. Nossa pesquisa valorizou os estudos diacrônicos fazendo a interface com os estudos sincrônicos e análises intertextuais. Os resultados alcançados foram uma melhor compreensão do relato, evidenciando que o fato de Jesus ter sido movido de compaixão diante da mãe viúva resultou na solução do problema. Com a sua palavra Jesus reanimou o jovem morto e o entregou à sua mãe e as multidões reconheceram o episódio co-mo uma visita de Deus ao seu povo. Demonstramos que ao empregar o verbo splangxizomai Lucas o fez conscientemente e coerentemente utilizando critérios literários e com seu próprio estilo narrativo, onde o mesmo funciona como turning point, isto é, como ponto de mutação e serve de modelo para o uso do verbo nas demais passagens do Evangelho (Lc 10,33 e 15,20). / [en] This research is a study and analysis of Lk 7:11-17, well-known as the resurrection of the widow s son at Nain, aiming to understand the feeling of compassion felt by Jesus after seeing the widowed mother on her way to bury her only son. That feeling was well portrayed by Luke by the use of the verb splangxizomai (being moved by compassion). The criteria for the use of this verb in the pericope as well as in the other occurrences in the Gospel of Luke are studied. For the analysis and interpretation of Lk 7:11-17, essential elements of the historical-critic method are used. Thus, a diachronic analysis of the text is made and by analyzing the way Luke uses the verb splangxizomai in his Gospel, the analysis is synchronic, considering the text in its final form and revealing the elements used to provoke the reader, within the structure of Lk 7:11-17 and linked to the Gospel as a whole. Our research values the diachronic studies through their interfacing with synchronic studies and intertextual analyses. The results achieved lead to a better understanding of the narrative, highlighting that the fact of Jesus being moved with compassion by the situation of the widowed mother resulted in the solution of the problem. With his word, Jesus reanimated the dead young man and returned him to his mother. With this, the crowds recognized the episode as a visit of God to his people. We demonstrate that the use of the verb splangxizomai by Luke was conscious and consistent, using literary criteria and his own narrative style, functioning as a turning point, a point of change, and serving as a model for the further use of the verb in other passages of the Gospel (Lk 10:33 and 15:20).

Etude bibliographique sur le recalage d'images de visage et sur le recalage d'images et travail en collaboration avec Son VuS, pour définir la précision nécessaire du recalage en fonction des exigences des méthodes de reconnaissance de visages. / Face alignment is an important step in a typical automatic face recognition system.This thesis addresses the alignment of faces for face recognition applicationin video surveillance context. The main challenging factors of this research includethe low quality of images (e.g., low resolution, motion blur, and noise), uncontrolledillumination conditions, pose variations, expression changes, and occlusions. In orderto deal with these problems, we propose several face alignment methods using differentstrategies. The _rst part of our work is a three-stage method for facial pointlocalization which can be used for correcting mis-alignment errors. While existingalgorithms mostly rely on a priori knowledge of facial structure and on a trainingphase, our approach works in an online mode without requirements of pre-de_nedconstraints on feature distributions. The proposed method works well on images underexpression and lighting variations. The key contributions of this thesis are aboutjoint image alignment algorithms where a set of images is simultaneously alignedwithout a biased template selection. We respectively propose two unsupervised jointalignment algorithms : \Lucas-Kanade entropy congealing" (LKC) and \gradient correlationcongealing" (GCC). In LKC, an image ensemble is aligned by minimizing asum-of-entropy function de_ned over all images. GCC uses gradient correlation coef-_cient as similarity measure. The proposed algorithms perform well on images underdi_erent conditions. To further improve the robustness to mis-alignments and thecomputational speed, we apply a multi-resolution framework to joint face alignmentalgorithms. Moreover, our work is not limited in the face alignment stage. Since facealignment and face acquisition are interrelated, we develop an adaptive appearanceface tracking method with alignment feedbacks. This closed-loop framework showsits robustness to large variations in target's state, and it signi_cantly decreases themis-alignment errors in tracked faces.

These properties include parity, primality, prime power divisibility, coprimality etc. A substantial part of the text should be accessible to gifted high school students, the results are illustrated with examples. 1

The aim of this thesis is to illustrate the phenomenon of the transfer of the transalpine landscape motifs in graphic art into the works of Italian engravers at the beginning of the six- teenth century, and by using detailed analysis of these prints lead to a decision as to why these transfers occur so frequently, mainly in the years 1500-1520. Because only brief mentions of these transfers are found in the available literature on this topic, and then often only as a statement, I decided to tackle this phenomenon in the context of landscape specifications. In the introductory chapter there will be a concise overview of the cultural situation of the humanistic society, including its assumptions and a brief evolution of depiction of landscape art. Additionally there will be a chapter about the terminology used, which in addition to clarifying the terminology also helps to further the description of the proce- ss itself. The main part will of course be a chapter dedicated into selected items. There will also be descriptions of the graphic works of selected Italian engravers, especially in the comparison of transferred landscape motifs from works by Albrecht Dürer and Lucas van Leyden. Analy- sis of the individual prints will focus on elements transmitted in the background of the works. Iconography...

L’objectif principal de cette thèse est d’instruire l’organisation des successions culturales, à l’échelle de la France et sur un recul décennal, tant en terme de cinétiques localisées qu’en terme de dynamiques liées à des variables explicatives du milieu physique et socio-technico-économiques. Ce travail de « fouille de données » est appliqué en France métropolitaine, en utilisant les bases de données publiques disponibles. Notre étude couvre la période 1992-2003 où s’implémenta la réforme de 1992 de la Politique Agricole Commune européenne et l’agenda 2000 en France. A partir d’une fouille de données sur l’ensemble des points Terruti sur cette période, 2549 successions culturales de trois ans furent identifiées. Ensuite, 21 clusters de l’ensemble des 430 régions agricoles (RA) françaises, quatre systèmes de culture, 90 RA, parangons des 430 RA, et trois régions principales appartenant à cinq des 21 clusters, regroupant les cultures de céréales, oléagineux et protéagineux, ont été définis. Deux approches de cinétiques des successions ont été réalisées : Une étude envisageant les successions de culture qui suivent les retournements de prairies permanentes. Une recherche des dynamiques d’évolution de successions culturales en lien avec des conditions externes. Nous proposons une utilisation ultérieure des méthodes mobilisées qui ont montré leur capacité à cartographier les grandes tendances d’évolution en France et à identifier les principales variables explicatives de ces évolutions. Les apports de cette thèse contribuent à améliorer notre compréhension des processus qui organisent les successions culturales en France et construisent par ces pratiques agricoles très dynamiques des impacts forts sur le territoire agricole français / In the context of changing agricultural policy, the development of agricultural production systems, increasing concern for agricultural sustainability and shifts in agricultural land management practice-related land-use change, the main objective of this thesis was to mine crop sequence patterns (CSP) and the relationships between CSP and the biophysical and socio-technical-economic conditions in mainland France from historical census data (e.g. land-cover survey, agricultural censuses, population census). Our study period 1992-2003 covers the implementation period of the 1992 European Union Common Agricultural Policy reform and Agenda 2000 in France. Both the classical statistical and data mining technique were applied in alone or combined ways in this thesis. First, we proposed an innovative approach to representing CSP within a given area and period at a large regional scale in a stationary way. The 2549 3-year crop sequences (CSs) were first identified as major CSs within all 430 agricultural districts (ADs) in mainland France during this period. Next, 21 clusters of ADs , four types of cropping systems, 90 representative ADs and three principal planting zones of cereals, oilseeds, and protein crops belonging to five clusters identified previously were further defined. We then explored CSP in a dynamic way by investigating CSP after grassland-to-cropland conversion, the temporal variability of CSP, and the evolution of the relationships between CSP and the external conditions over the study period. We conclude that the approaches developed here permit the representation of CSP at the large regional scale in both stationary and dynamic ways using time series land-cover data denoting specific agricultural cover types. The findings of this thesis contribute to improving the understanding of the process and pattern of human land management practices by agriculture affecting the terrestrial biosphere
