| Research Abstract |
Manga (Japanese style Comics) is one of an important content of Japan. For simplicity to use information of contents/stories of comics, it is important to analyze comic components. In this research, we studied image analysis methods for comic character detection and identification. We discussed about the detection method that use EYE-FACE cascade classifier consisted by HOG feature for character face detection from comic images. Then, through analysis examinations, we confirmed that the classifier with HOG can be obtained high accuracy ratio than Haar-like for face detection from comic images. Also character initialization and detection is constructed same method. Moreover, we discussed image analysis method for binary thinned comic images to increase comic analysis accuracy.
