Thanks go to my teacher of mathematics at school, Mrs. Jūratė Raščiauskienė, for trusting in me when I did not. To dr. Ričardas Kudţma, my teacher at university, who made me trust in myself. To dr. Antanas Mitašiūnas who supported that trust. And especially I would like to thank my supervisor prof. habil. dr. Šarūnas Raudys who did not trust in me when I trusted in myself too much. My heartiest thanks go to my family (especially to my wife Neringa) who sacrificed a lot for my PhD studies.
