Matematické metody segmentace obrazu pro dálkový průzkum Země / Mathematical Methods of Image Segmentation for Remote Sensing ApplicationsNovotný, Jan January 2015 (has links)
Segmentation of an image into individual tree crowns is a key step in the processing of remotely sensed data for forestry practice. The doctoral thesis gives a broad overview of this topic. It comprehends theoretical context from mathematical point of view and defines basic terms from airborne imaging and laser scanning. Mathematical methods of tree detection are focused on a robust adaptation to the actual conditions in a region of interest. A novel approach of crown area delineation is introduced, it combines a seeded region growing technique with an active contour as a crown boundary representation. The parametrisation of all algorithms is analysed in a practical half of the thesis and more application-oriented issues are mentioned. Executable computer programs are attached.

Macrocyclic chemistry: Part I - Characterization of a mixed-valence di-iron complex and synthesis of a new poly-iron complex. Part II - Synthesis, characterization of new diphosphoester macrocyclic polyethersHoang, Son Xuan 01 January 2011 (has links) (PDF)
Our research involved two projects: Crown Aza and Crown ether. Crown Aza are compounds that have nitrogens as the hetero-atoms in the macrocycle. In the first aim, the 1 H NMR spectrum of strongly-coupled di-iron complexes shows 5 different conformations, but is unable to identify these conformers. Calculation using Density Functional Theory (DFT) were performed to attempt to quantify these conformers to correlate with the experimental NMR data. The second aim of this study was to utilize the carbonyl functional group of the macrocycles to couple the iron complexes to obtain tetramers or higher oligomers. Visible spectra of the selective reduction of iron mono-keto-macrocycles with boron trifluoride and triethylsilane showed a coupling reaction to form a di-iron complex. A mixture of iron mono-keto-macrocycic with iron diketo-dimacrocycle showed a new species with an intense NIR absorption at 1010 nm. This intense band at 1010 nm is extremely rare in transition metal compounds and is of potential interest in photodynamic therapy. This indicates a new species is formed with a very low energy gap between the ground and excited states. Our second interest is in ionizable crown ethers that have many potential applications from environmental to medical. These macrocyclic poly-ethers contain phosphorous and oxygen atoms which produce a charged moiety in the ring to form a neutral complex with our targeted ions. They are significantly different from all ionizable cyclic poly-ethers in the literature. They vary in ring size from 16-crown-6 to 22-crown-8 using ethylene or propylene linkages between the oxygen atoms. Theoretical calculations revealed these ionizable crown ethers can accommodate ions from 2.6 angstroms to 4.2 angstroms in diameter. Strontium 90 ( 90 Sr 2+ ) is a radioactive product ion from nuclear fission reactions. The Phosphorous containing macrocyclic poly-ether with 2 charges could form complexes with Strontium and are possible candidates for clean-up agents of radioactive materials. The synthesis of ionizable crown ethers is discussed.

Revision of the Halitherium-species complex (Mammalia, Sirenia) from the late Eocene to early Miocene of Central Europe and North AmericaVoß, Manja 17 February 2014 (has links)
Die zu den Sirenia, oder Seekühen, zählende Gattung Halitherium ist mit Arten aus dem Obereozän bis Untermiozän bekannt. Obwohl Halitherium als monophyletisch angesehen wird, bestätigen alle bisherigen phylogenetischen Analysen die Paraphylie dieser Gruppe. Auch die auf Halitherium basierende nur fossil bekannte Unterfamilie Halitheriinae ist paraphyletisch und umfasst wiederum fast ausnahmslos paraphyletische Gattungen. Der Fokus liegt auf der Typusart H. schinzii. Deren Holotyp, ein Premolar, wird als undiagnostisch definiert und infolgedessen H. schinzii als nomen dubium eingestuft. Die Neubeschreibung sämtlicher dieser Art zugeordneter Skelettreste liefert neue morphologische Daten. So kann die Hypothese von zwei sympatrisch vorkommenden Morphospezies im Unteroligozän Zentraleuropas auf Basis mehrerer unterscheidender Merkmale gestützt werden. Für die Verwandtschaftsanalyse der „Halitherium“ traditionell zugeordneten Arten und die Ermittlung ihrer phylogenetischen Stellung innerhalb der Ordnung Sirenia finden strenge kladistische Prinzipien Berücksichtigung. Eine revidierte, ergänzte und erweiterte Merkmalsmatrix stellt dabei den bisher größten morphologischen Datensatz über Sirenia dar. Die phylogenetischen Analysen zeigen, dass die „Halitherium“ Arten keine monophyletische Gruppe bilden. Im Zuge dieser systematisch-taxonomischen Revision werden die „Halitheriinae“ eingezogen und vier neue Gattungen aufgestellt. Des Weiteren wird eine neue Klassifikation der Sirenia vorgeschlagen, in der eine konsequente Unterscheidung zwischen einer paraphyletischen Stammgruppe und einer monophyletischen Kronengruppe Anwendung findet. Diese Studie liefert neue Daten über die Diversität und Biogeographie von Sirenen. Die herausragendsten Ergebnisse sind zum einen die Revision einer der zweifelhaftesten Sirenia Gruppen, die „Halitheriinae“. Zum anderen wird für den Ursprung der Kronengruppensirenen ein eher unteroligozäner statt eozäner Zeitpunkt postuliert. / The genus Halitherium includes a number of fossil sirenian species, or sea cows, ranging from the late Eocene to early Miocene. Although Halitherium is assumed to be monophyletic, all previous phylogenetic analyses reveal this group to be paraphyletic. As such, the exclusively extinct subfamily Halitheriinae based on Halitherium is paraphyletic comprising mainly genera that are invariably paraphyletic as well. The focus lies on the type species H. schinzii and the morphological basis for its establishment. The holotype, a single premolar, is considered non-diagnostic, which resulted in the recognition of this taxon name as a nomen dubium. Abundant skeletal material originally assigned to “H. schinzii” is re-described providing new data on the morphology of this sirenian. In this process, the hypothesis of two sympatric morphospecies in the lower Oligocene of Central Europe is corroborated by a suite of distinguishing characters. For the analysis of the interrelationships of the species traditionally assigned to “Halitherium”, and the identification of their phylogenetic position within the order Sirenia, robust cladistic principles are applied. A revised, supplemented and extended data matrix represents the hitherto largest data set on Sirenia based on morphological characters. The phylogenetic analyses show that the “Halitherium” species do not form a monophyletic group. In the course of this systematic and taxonomic revision the “Halitheriinae” are refuted and four new genera are established. Furthermore, a new systematic framework is introduced for Sirenia primarily distinguishing between a paraphyletic stem group and a monophyletic crown group. This study provides new data on the past sirenian diversity and biogeography. The most important results are that one of the most disputed sirenian groups, the “Halitheriinae”, is revised, and that the divergence time of crown group sirenians is estimated as early Oligocene rather than Eocene.

Cash is [no longer] king: is an e-krona the answer? : - a de lege ferenda investigation of the Swedish Riksbank's issuing mandate and other legal callenges in relation to economic effects on the payment marketImamovic, Arnela January 2019 (has links)
For the past decades, the Swedish public’s payment habits have changed, where the majority of the public has abandoned the old way of making payments, using cash, and instead opted for more modern payment solutions, digital money. The difference between cash and digital money is that cash is physical and only issued by the Riksbank, whereas digital money is created by and stored on accounts at commercial banks. The question of what role the state should have on the payment market is an important point of discussion. But it is not categorically a new question; the Swedish government is tackling essentially the same problem today as it has been doing many times before. Today’s problem is to some extent however manifested in a different way. During the 20th century, discussions were held whether or not the Riksbank should have the exclusive right to issue banknotes. It was considered unnecessary, inappropriate and dangerous. The idea that the Riksbank could cover the entire economy’s need for banknotes was, according to the commercial banks, unreasonable. Nonetheless, in 1904 the exclusive right became fait accompli; the government intervened and gave the Riksbank the banknote monopoly. We are now finding ourselves facing a similar situation, where there is a difference of opinion regarding the Riksbank’s role on the payment market. It is therefore nothing new, but rather an expected task for the government, and thus the central bank, to analyze major changes and draw conclusions from them. The problem is essentially about cash being phased out by digital means of payment. In order to therefore solve the problem, the Riksbank has started a project to investigate whether or not the Riksbank should issue digital cash to the Swedish public, what the Riksbank calls an e-krona. To introduce an e-krona would be a major step, but for the public to not have access to a government alternative, seeing as cash usage is declining, is also a major step. No decision has been made yet regarding whether the e-krona will be introduced on the market or not. A decision that however has been made, is that the Riksbank is now working on building an e-krona to develop and assess the technique. Nonetheless, an introduction would undoubtedly have consequences for both the Riksbank and the commercial banks, which ultimately means it would have effects on the economy as a whole. What about regulatory aspects; is the Riksbank even allowed to issue an e-krona under current legislation? The answer is affirmative, to a certain extent. There are furthermore many other uncertainties regarding how an e-krona would affect the economy; the Riksbank does not fully answer many of the system issues in its project reports. The question of whether or not it even is up to the Riksbank to make a decision on the matter of an introduction is also questioned by the author in the thesis.

Dopad změn směnných kurzů na vzorek českých společností / The impact of changing exchange rates on Czech companiesKlečka, Michal January 2016 (has links)
This thesis analyses impact of exchange rate exposure in Czech Republic on sample of ten Czech companies. Empirical part of thesis builds on Nazl, Kar, Akel (2014) and through market-based approach states significant impact of exchange rate exposure for 40 % of companies. Higher robustness of results was achieved through improvements in the methodology which, contrary to related literature, eliminates endogeneity of market index through instrumental variable. Surprisingly, the correlations between exchange rates and stocks of Czech companies are positive. An alternative model considering ROA of individual companies as dependent variable was used to confirm these results. The resulting impact of exchange rate exposure of alternative model is opposite. This inconsistency of the results of both models is confusing. The sudden change in exchange rate policy of the Czech National Bank in November 2013 did not affect the sensitivity of the relationship between exchange rates and stocks. The reaction of stock market in November 2013 indicates that policy change made by CNB was not entirely expected. Contrary to the related literature, higher data aggregation decreases the significance of the exchange rate exposure, signifying higher ability of Czech companies to reduce exchange rate risk in longer...

Compliance at work: protecting identity and science practice under corporatisationHunt, Lesley M. January 2003 (has links)
When the New Zealand Government restructured the system of the public funding of research (1990-1992) it created Crown Research Institutes (CRIs) as companies operating in a global, market-led economy. One CRI, AgResearch, responded to this environment by corporatisation and instituted a normative system of control of workers which, through strategic plans, vision and mission statements, and performance appraisal processes, encouraged workers to adhere to company goals. This thesis, reporting on an ethnographic study of this CRI, shows how most scientific workers (technical workers and scientists alike) experienced insecurity through estrangement because the contributions they wished to make were less valued both in society and in their work organisation. They were excluded from participation in both organisational and Government policy-making, and felt they did not ‘belong’ anymore. Scientists in particular were also experiencing alienation (in the Marxist sense), as they were losing autonomy over the production of their work and its end use. Scientific workers developed tactics of compliance in order to resist these experiences and ostensibly comply with organisational goals while maintaining and protecting their self-identities, and making their work meaningful. Meanwhile, to outward appearances, the work of the CRI continued. This thesis adds to the sociology of work literature by extending the understanding of the concepts of compliance and resistance in white-collar work, particularly under normative control, by developing two models of resistance. It adds to the stories of the impact on public sector workers of the restructuring of this sector in New Zealand’s recent history, and develops implications for science policy and practice.

The confiscation of Pare Hauraki: The impact of Te Ao Pākehā on the Iwi of Pare Hauraki Māori; on the whenua of Pare Hauraki 1835-1997 and The Foreshore and Seabed Act 2004 / Te raupatutanga o Pare HaurakiPeters, Murray Hamaka January 2007 (has links)
Kia mau ki te rangatiratanga o te Iwi o Hauraki Just as the whakataukī explains Hold fast to the power and authority of the Hauraki tribes the focus of this study is to examine and evaluate the impact of Te Ao Pākehā on Pare Hauraki lands and Tīkapa Moana under the mana of Pare Hauraki Māori and Pare Hauraki tikanga. The iwi of Pare Hauraki have land claims through the, (Wai 100) and the Hauraki Māori Trust Board, before the Waitangi Tribunal highlighting whenua issues and their impact on Pare Hauraki iwi. Also relevant is the foreshore and seabed issue which is documented leading on to the infamous Foreshore and Seabed Act 2004, (for Māori anyway), sparking widespread opposition by Māori throughout the country, and other supportive non-Māori groups because of the issue concerning Māori kaitiiakitanga and guardianship roles. This investigation will commence by outlining the histories of discovery and settlement of Pare Hauraki, the concept of mana-whenua/mana-moana as it applies to Pare Hauraki Māori and our tikanga, and then to subsequent issues leading to land alienation of the early 19th to late 20th cenutries and then to the foreshore issue of the early 21st Century. This research will include information showing that before 1840 to Te Tiriti o Waitangi and thereafter that Pākehā and various Crown agents, through legislation claimed the rights to the lands, waterways and oceanic areas under the kaitiakitanga of my tupuna of Pare Hauraki. Tupuna and other iwi members have expressed their disgust seeing the mana of their traditional lands, waterways, oceanic areas and kaitiaki roles slipping away from them through these activities. Therefore, this thesis is a response to those issues and the impact on (a), Māori as a people, and our tikanga Māori and (b), Pare Hauraki Māori as the kaitiaki/guardians of the Pare Hauraki rohe/territory in accordance with tikanga Māori, and the significance of the responsibilities which arise out of the Māori concepts of kaitiakitanga, manaakitanga and rangatiratanga.
