Creating Character Connections from Comics using Frames and Words in Balloons

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) We aim to create character connections from comics using the frames and the words in balloons. First, we build a dataset that contains a comic's characters and their words in balloons separated by frames. Second, we extract the relationships among characters using a heuristic method based on matching words and dictionaries. Third, we develop connections among characters by identifying the important characters and calculating their relationships, which we add to the connections. We implemented and tested our relative relationship extraction methods using a popular Japanese comic called "Naruto."
