The thesis deals with assessment of the effect of pH value, temperature, concentration of toxic forms of nitrogen, concentration of dissolved oxygen and other factors on the process of start-up of the nitrification reactor serving for biological pre-treatment of fugate. Another objective of this thesis is to assess the effect of the conditions prevailing in the reactor on the efficiency of transformation of N-ammon to oxidized forms of nitrogen. During the system start-up, nitrifying activated sludge sampled from the regeneration zone of the activation process at the Central Waste Water Treatment Plant in Prague was used as inoculum. The laboratory model with suspended biomass consisted of a nitrification reactor, the working volume of which was 1.5 l in the first part of the experiment and 5 l in the second part of the experiment. The system start-up lasted from 17 April 2015 to approximately 12 May 2015 (days 0 to 32). N-ammon concentration in the inflow ranged from 1660 mg/l to 3000 mg/l. Volume loading of ammonia-nitrogen in the reactor ranged from 0.1 to 0.4 kg/(m3.d). During the experiment, the dissolved oxygen concentration ranged 3.6 to 6.8 mg/l, and the temperature range was 23 C°. The performed experiment confirmed that it is possible to start up and maintain longterm the nitrification process also in fugate from a biogas station. It has been proved that despite the extreme characteristics of fugate, the nitrification process can be incorporated from the first days of the reactor operation. From the beginning of the experiment, N-NO3 was abundantly generated. N-ammon oxidizing efficiency ranged between 90 and 99 % and influenced particular by pH values.

This thesis deals with the removal of noise in speech recordings that have been recorded in an MRI environment. For this purpose, the Nvidia RTX Voice technology, the VST plug-in module Noisereduce and a self-designed method of subtractive de-noising of recordings are used. A program with a simple graphical interface in Python is implemented within the work to retrieve the recordings and then de-noise them using the proposed methods. The work includes measurements in a magnetic resonance environment with two microphones. The quality of the processed recordings is tested within the program using the STOI (Short-Time Objective Intelligibility Measure) method as well as the subjective analysis method within listening tests.

In the presented work we study the methods of image deblurring using two images of the same scene with different exposure times, focusing on two main approach categories, so called deconvolution and non-deconvolution methods. We present theoretical backgrounds on both categories and evaluate their limitations and advantages. We dedicate one section to compare both method categories on test data (images) for which we our MATLAB implementation of the methods. We also compare the effectiveness of said methods against the results of a selected single-image de-noising algorithm. We do not focus at computational efficiency of algorithms and work with single-channel images only.

Cílem mé diplomové práce bylo studium existujících metod pro detekci a odstranění odlesků ze sekvence snímků, nalezení jejich omezení a návrh možných vylepšení. Konkrétně jsme se zaměřili na rovinné spekulární povrchy, jejichž vzhled může být modelován superpozicí odrážené a přenášené vrstvy. Prozkoumali jsme především metody využívající vzájemný pohyb vrstev jako hlavní klíč k jejich oddělení. Popsali jsme jejich společný případ selhání, který spočívá v neschopnosti správného oddělení oblastí s nevýraznou texturou ve směru pohybu kamery. Výsledkem našeho úsilí je metoda řešící tento problém. Jejím hlavním přínosem je nový způsob odhadu hran obou vrstev, kdy důraz je kladen na správné oddělení hran zmíněných problematických oblastí. Věnovali jsme se také následnému odhadu barev jednotlivých vrstev, kdy se vedle hran vrstev využívá i odhad jejich hloubkových map, a popsali jsme alternativní přístup ke klasické kvadratické optimalizaci.

The aim of this work was to develop an automated methods for removing unwanted objects from video sequences. The proposed method is able to autonomously tackle the static and the moving object with no user intervention into the process. The user only determines the object to deleted.

The impacts of fluorine doping of ceria are studied by means of surface science experimental methods. Fluorine-doped and fluorine-free ceria layers are epitaxially grown on rhodium single crystals and their properties are compared in regular and inverse catalyst configurations. A procedure for epitaxial growth of CeO2(110) and CeOxFy(110) layers on Rh(110) single crystal is developed and described in detail. Shape alterations of Ce 3d spectrum brought about by fluorine doping are explained and a suitable deconvolution method is proposed. Special attention is focused towards stability of fluorine in ceria. Presented data show that fluorine incorporation in ceria lattice causes stable reduction of ceria, which withstands up to 200řC in near-ambient pressure conditions. Morphological changes are observed due to elongation of surface lattice constant of reduced ceria. Oxygen storage capacities and hydrogen oxidation reaction rates of four different studied systems are compared and discussed. The twofold nature of oxygen exposure of fluorinated ceria is discovered and explained. Oxygen repels fluorine from the surface, while the remaining part of fluorine is expelled to adsorbate positions, where its electronic state is altered. Moreover, such fluorine is prone to interact with atomic hydrogen. This reaction is...
