This thesis presents an insight into the phenomenon of cranberry collocations. In opposition to their prevailing conception as a marginal part of phraseology, it shows, on the basis of corpus data, that their nature is very diverse and deserves a broader view. It suggests statistical tools which can be used to search for cranberry words in corpora. Based on an analysis of the data obtained by this method, it presents a classification and description of the phenomenon in Czech, including some problematic points. These findings are subsequently used for comparison of cranberry collocations in Czech with data obtained in the same way in Slovak, French and English.

Title: Evaluation of the number drowned people in the Czech Republic in the years 1994-2010 Aim of the thesis: Evaluate the number of drowning people in the Czech republic. Methods: Searches of available sources. Collecting data from the Czech Statistical office, media, information portals. Results: All processed data were given in the current context causes drowning in the Czech Republic. In this work it was found that the actual risk of drowning increases with age and is about 2,5 times higher in men than in women. There have also been some laws on the number of drowning in natural water, which can not be assessed due to the short time generalize. The month of July has been demonstrated in the period of dependence on temperature drowned Celsius. Results of this work can not be compared with other countries and assume that the results will be the same. Keywords: Drowning, International Classificasion of Diseases, Water Rescue Service, the casuse of drowning.

This thesis explains important concepts, procedures and forms of assessment in current school with a focus on new trends in this area. The thesis aim is to find out how is formative assessment and learning progress maps represented in the school assessment, whether created by SCIO or interviewed teachers. The theoretical part deals primarily with the formative school assessment, its functions and specifics. The second area on which the theoretical part focuses are innovations in the field of evaluation in connection with technology steeped era. Emperical part presents a report on whether and how is worked with progress maps on basic schools. Whether the teachers at these schools know this concept and optionally use learning progress maps in whatever form. Keywords Assessment, formative assessment, constructivist approach in teaching, portfolio, progress maps, reading continuum

In the first chapter the paper is focused on sovereign rating, it describes the history and explains the basic characteristics in the context of its usual usage. In the second chapter the basics behind the Arrangement on Officially Supported Export Credits are explained. Because the main purpose of this paper is to compare sovereign rating and the country risk classification based on the Arrangement, the chapter focuses especially on the Knaepen Package that introduced country risk classification to the Arrangement. In the chapter there is also the introduction to the Malzkuhn-Drysdale Package. In the third and fourth chapter sovereign ratings and county risk classifications are compared on theoretical basis. There were used several different criteria, e.g. methodology of rating/classifying, time necessary for adjustment and criteria for evaluation. The fifth chapter is focused on Basel I-III, the connection between Basel capital adequacy and both credit risk evaluation systems is explained. In the following chapter, the question of guilt of rating agencies and their role in the outbreak of financial crisis is discussed. The last chapter is based on the case study that describes the difference between development of financial crisis in Italy and Greece and its impact on rating grades and country risk classification.

The work deals with the receivables management under the Czech accounting standards and Czech legislation. The aim is to introduce a comprehensive system of receivables management and provide a comprehensive overview of possibilities of origin, classification, ensurance and recovery. The end of this work characterizes process of receivables management in the concrete firm, its assessment and proposals for streamlining this process.

(English) RNDr. Monika Cahynová: The influence of long-term changes of atmospheric circulation on observed trends of surface climatic elements in the Czech Republic and Europe The aim of this thesis is to quantify the links between recent atmospheric circulation changes over Europe and local surface climatic trends. We employ several parallel classifications of circulation types that were collected and developed within the COST733 Action "Harmonisation and Applications of Weather Types Classifications for European Regions". To our knowledge, such a comparative approach has not been used so far. Atmospheric circulation changes over Europe were studied in terms of changing seasonal frequency and persistence of daily circulation types in the second half of the 20th century. The extensive collection of both subjective and objective catalogues of circulation types in European regions from the COST733 Action served as a platform for comparison of different classification methods, varying numbers of circulation types, and spatial scale of circulation processes. The most prominent trend - winter increase in the number of days with westerly flow - clearly stems from the strengthening of the North Atlantic Oscillation. The objective classifications did not show any systematic change of persistence of...

The influence of spectral resolution on land cover classification in Krkonoše Mts. tundra Abstract The aim of this diploma thesis was to specify the spectral resolution requirements for classification and to identify the most important spectral bands to discriminate classes of the predefined legend. Aerial hyperspectral data acquired by AisaDUAL sensor were used. The method applied for the selection of the important bands was discriminant analysis performed in IBM SPSS Statistics. The most discriminative bands were found in intervals 1500-1750 nm (beginning of SWIR), 1100- 1300 nm (longer wavelengths of NIR), 670-760 (red-edge) and 500-600 nm (green light). The classification of the selected bands was realized in ENVI 5.4 using the Support Vector Machine classifier, achieving overall accuracy of 80,54 %, Kappa coefficient 0,7755. The suitability of available satellite data for the classification of tundra vegetation in Krkonoše mountains based on spectral resolution was evaluated as well. Keywords: tundra, Krkonoše, classification, spectral resolution, class separability, discriminant analysis, hyperspectral data

The main goal of the thesis is to answer whether an ability to use maps in different ways is affected by one or more criteria specified by the author. The author has decided to test abilities of fifteen-year-old pupils to work in different ways with actual and old maps. The thesis examines possible impact of type of the school, gender, school marks achieved in History and Geography lessons, and previous experience with using maps. Before the practical part of the thesis was executed the theoretical part of the thesis had been dealt with. Different map skills were specified and characterized. Maps which the author had chosen to use for the purpose of the thesis were thoroughly described and particular odds of work with old maps were emphasised. For the purpose of the research part of the thesis the author developed a didactic test. At pilot testing a sample of 34 pupils completed the test to verify it is suitable for the thesis purpose and it meets all requirements for scientific research. At the second stage of the practical part of the research a group of 125 pupils from two different types of school completed the test. After the practical part of the thesis the author rigorously analysed completed tests and discussed whether the abilities to use maps seem to be affected by some criteria that had...

Neural networks represent a powerful means capable of processing various multi-media data. Two applications of artificial neural networks to 3D surface models are examined in this thesis - detection of significant features in 3D data and model classification. The theoretical review of existing self-organizing neural networks is presented and followed by description of feed-forward neural networks and convolutional neural networks (CNN). A novel modification of existing model - N-dimensional convolutional neural networks (ND- CNN) - is introduced. The proposed ND-CNN model is enhanced by an existing technique for enforced knowledge representation. The developed theoretical methods are assessed on supporting experiments with scanned 3D face models. The first experiment focuses on automatic detection of significant facial features while the second experiment performs classification of the models by their gender using the CNN and ND-CNN.

Four relatively separate topics are presented in the thesis. Each topic represents one particular aspect of the Information Extraction discipline. The first two topics are focused on our information extraction methods based on deep language parsing. The first topic relates to how deep language parsing was used in our extraction method in combination with manually designed extraction rules. The second topic deals with a method for automated induction of extraction rules using Inductive Logic Programming. The third topic of the thesis combines information extraction with rule based reasoning. The core of our extraction method was experimentally reimplemented using semantic web technologies, which allows saving the extraction rules in so called shareable extraction ontologies that are not dependent on the original extraction tool. The last topic of the thesis deals with document classification and fuzzy logic. We are investigating the possibility of using information obtained by information extraction techniques to document classification. Our implementation of so called Fuzzy ILP Classifier was experimentally used for the purpose of document classification.
