A survey of comics research in computer science
Graphical novels such as comics and mangas are well known all over the world.
The digital transition started to change the way people are reading comics,
more and more on smartphones and tablets and less and less on paper. In the
recent years, a wide variety of research about comics has been proposed and
might change the way comics are created, distributed and read in future years.
Early work focuses on low level document image analysis: indeed comic books are
complex, they contains text, drawings, balloon, panels, onomatopoeia, etc.
Different fields of computer science covered research about user interaction
and content generation such as multimedia, artificial intelligence,
human-computer interaction, etc. with different sets of values. We propose in
this paper to review the previous research about comics in computer science, to
state what have been done and to give some insights about the main outlooks
Video Data Visualization System: Semantic Classification And Personalization
We present in this paper an intelligent video data visualization tool, based
on semantic classification, for retrieving and exploring a large scale corpus
of videos. Our work is based on semantic classification resulting from semantic
analysis of video. The obtained classes will be projected in the visualization
space. The graph is represented by nodes and edges, the nodes are the keyframes
of video documents and the edges are the relation between documents and the
classes of documents. Finally, we construct the user's profile, based on the
interaction with the system, to render the system more adequate to its
references.Comment: graphic
Automatic Structural Scene Digitalization
In this paper, we present an automatic system for the analysis and labeling
of structural scenes, floor plan drawings in Computer-aided Design (CAD)
format. The proposed system applies a fusion strategy to detect and recognize
various components of CAD floor plans, such as walls, doors, windows and other
ambiguous assets. Technically, a general rule-based filter parsing method is
fist adopted to extract effective information from the original floor plan.
Then, an image-processing based recovery method is employed to correct
information extracted in the first step. Our proposed method is fully automatic
and real-time. Such analysis system provides high accuracy and is also
evaluated on a public website that, on average, archives more than ten
thousands effective uses per day and reaches a relatively high satisfaction
rate.Comment: paper submitted to PloS On
Extraction of Projection Profile, Run-Histogram and Entropy Features Straight from Run-Length Compressed Text-Documents
Document Image Analysis, like any Digital Image Analysis requires
identification and extraction of proper features, which are generally extracted
from uncompressed images, though in reality images are made available in
compressed form for the reasons such as transmission and storage efficiency.
However, this implies that the compressed image should be decompressed, which
indents additional computing resources. This limitation induces the motivation
to research in extracting features directly from the compressed image. In this
research, we propose to extract essential features such as projection profile,
run-histogram and entropy for text document analysis directly from run-length
compressed text-documents. The experimentation illustrates that features are
extracted directly from the compressed image without going through the stage of
decompression, because of which the computing time is reduced. The feature
values so extracted are exactly identical to those extracted from uncompressed
images.Comment: Published by IEEE in Proceedings of ACPR-2013. arXiv admin note: text
