The thesis focuses on segmentation of images with leaves of woody species. The aim was to investigate existing image segmentation methods, choose suitable method for given data and implement it. The chosen method should segment existing datasets, photographs from cameras as well as photographs from lower-quality mobile phones. Inputs are scanned leaves and photographs of various quality. The thesis summarizes the general methods of image segmentation and describes own algorithm that gives us the best results. Based on the histogram, the algorithm decides whether the input is of sufficient quality and can be segmented by Otsu algorithm or is not and should be segmented using GrowCut algorithm. Next, the image is improved by morphological closing and holes filling. Finally, only the largest object is left. Results are illustrated using generated output images.

Each year the top 125 players on the PGA TOUR money list receive fully exempt status for the upcoming season. Past literature looks at the determinants that led to success for the top professionals on the PGA TOUR. Instead, I look at the determinants of finishing inside the top 125 on the PGA TOUR money list and retaining one’s TOUR card. I analyze the difference both statistically and in future earnings between finishing 100-125th on the money list and 126-150th. This paper finds that greens and regulation and putting have the largest effect on retaining a TOUR card while driving distance and accuracy are significant but at a much lower level. Future studies should look into the tradeoff between playing on the PGA TOUR and less marque tours like the Web.com as it can affect one’s earnings greatly.

The subject of this diploma thesis was to identify changes in a visit rate of spas in Czech Republic that have been caused mainly after adoption of a new Indication list in 2012. Its impacts were examined by comparison and analysis between two time periods, by year 2013 and from year 2013. Essential indicators of spas, such as trend of treatment days, numbers of clients, accommodation capacity and staffing, were examined in more detail in the diploma thesis. Based on the results and findings were then estimated further trends and development of spas in Czech Republic.

The aim of this thesis is to describe spas in Czech Republic, from its history, spa areas, and its natural medicinal resources to economy of spas, sources of financing, providing services and legislation. The practical part is focused on the changes in funding spa care on the ground of amendment the List of indications which sets the rules for complex spa care and contributory spa care that is fully or partly covered by public health insurance. The main aim of this work is to define primarily economic impacts of the spa, which this amendment really brings after a several months.

The purpose of this study is to determine the types of books and periodicals in the field of business education which should be included in the library of the average senior high school, and to compile a selective list of the best publications as a standard reference list for the use of the high school commercial teacher.

Introduktion/Bakgrund: Transplantation är en livräddande behandling som erbjuds när ingen annan behandling leder till förbättrat tillstånd. Organbristen är idag större än utbudet som finns för organ. Väntelistan för att få ett nytt organ är lång och som konsekvens av detta kan individer avlida innan transplantation. Det finns levande och avlidna donatorer, där levande donatorer behöver öka i antal för att utveckla möjligheten till fler organtransplantationer. Det är angeläget att sjuksköterskan tillgodoser andliga, existentiella, sociala och psykiska behov i lika stor utsträckning som fysiska behov avseende omvårdnadsinterventioner. Syfte: Undersöka hur individer beskriver väntan på en organtransplantation. Metod: Litteraturstudien har framställts genom Polit och Beck’s (2017) nio steg och är systematiskt utformad genom datainsamling från databaserna Cinahl, PubMed och PsycINFO. Resultatet inkluderar elva vetenskapliga artiklar, varav nio kvalitativa och två kvantitativa studier. Resultat: I litteraturstudien identifierades fyra kategorier; en evig kamp, brist på frihet, det okända och livet med andra som beskriver väntan. Slutsats: Litteraturstudiens resultat beskriver upplevelser av både negativ och positiv karaktär. Begränsningar i livet är främst vad som påverkar välbefinnandet hos individer och bidrar även till psykologiska utmaningar. Väntetiden är en individuell upplevelse där information och stöttning från sjuksköterskan är angeläget för att förebygga ohälsa.

Background: Organ transplantation is an established form of treatment applied worldwide, which saves many lives. There is however, an imbalance between supply and demand for organs, which means that the patients on the waiting list for organs often have to stay there for a long time. In worst case, they die before a suitable organ is found. Patients waiting for vital organs are therefore in a very exposed situation and this causes many feelings. Aim: The aim of the study was to describe patients´ experiences while waiting for vital organs. Method: A literature based study analysing twelve qualitative studies, that based onpatient interviews describe the patients' experiences while waiting for vital organs. Results: The result showed that patients felt bound, both physically and mentally. They experienced anxiety and stress during the long wait for an organ but had also hope forrecovery and wished to be able to return to a normal life. Information and support were an important part of getting through the wait. Two themes appeared during the analysis; To hope and to understand, the mixed emotions and To be bound and to be in need. Conclusion: All patients' experiences were individual, although there are many similarities in how they experienced waiting for vital organs, especially regarding emotions. Hope was a prerequisite for patients while waiting for a vital organ, as it servesas a driving force to hold out during their uncertain life situation.

Denna uppsats behandlar Steven Spielbergs film Schindlers list med utgångspunkt i de historiedidaktiska begreppen historiemedvetande och historiebruk. Arbetet baseras således på en analys av filmen. Utslaget av denna analys har blivit en diskussion kring dels specifika scener, dels hur filmen i sin helhet ger uttryck för historiebruk och på vad sätt ett historiemedvetande kan stimuleras. Av vikt har även varit att framhålla på vilket sätt filmen som narrativ kan stimulera ett historiemedvetande. Uppsatsen gör en ansats till att koppla samman de ovannämnda historiedidaktiska begreppen då historiebruk, vilket kan förstås som hur man använder sig av historia, påverkar ett historiemedvetande beroende på vad och hur den väljer att framställa det förflutna. Ett historiemedvetande påverkar i sin tur sättet man handlar och uppfattar världen. Syftet med dessa analyser är att förankra dem i en undervisningssituation, där man med dem som utgångspunkter kan diskutera förintelsen utifrån olika teman och frågeställningar som exempelvis makt, ideologi, demokrati, diktatur, moral etc. I slutsatsen diskuteras således i huvudsak på vad sätt resultatet av analyserna kan kopplas till en historiedidaktisk kontext.
