Nowadays, the development of the new technologies and the World Wide Web is giving birth to a new form of paperless comics that takes advantage of the virtual world freedom.<br \/>\nHowever, traditional comics still represent an important cultural heritage in many countries. They have not yet received the same level of attention as music, cinema or<br \/>\nliterature about their adaptation to the digital format. Using information technologies with \u201cclassic\u201d comics would facilitate the exploration of digital libraries, faster theirs translations,<br \/>\nallow augmented reading (improvement of content during reading, on demand and personalized), speech playback for the visually impaired, etc.<br \/>\nCultural heritage preservation organizations such as the CIBDI in Angoul\u00eame (French acronym for International City of Comic books and Images),<br \/>\nthe Kyoto International Manga Museum and the digitalcomicmuseum.com website in USA have already digitized hundreds of comic albums that some are now in the public domain.<br \/>\nDespite the expending market place of digital comics, few researches have been carried out to take advantage of the added value provided by these new media.<br \/>\nThe difficulty of analyzing the \u201cBandes Dessin\u00e9es\u201d, comics and mangas comes from the large diversity of contents.<br \/>\nIndeed, each author has his own style both in terms of drawing and representation of texts. Developing methods for extracting and indexing comics content is a significant challenge.<br \/>\nIn this talk, I will present the different strategies used to extract the elements of comic strips such as panels, speech balloons, text, characters and links that may exist between these elements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comics analysis and Indexing Prof. Jean-Christophe Burie (Universit\u00e9 de la Rochelle) 25 avril 2019 @ 11h00 BC420 \u2013 EPFL Plus d&rsquo;informations<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1001094,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-74","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-evenements"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.unil.ch\/olivierstucky\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.unil.ch\/olivierstucky\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.unil.ch\/olivierstucky\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/people.unil.ch\/olivierstucky\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1001094"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/people.unil.ch\/olivierstucky\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=74"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/people.unil.ch\/olivierstucky\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/people.unil.ch\/olivierstucky\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=74"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/people.unil.ch\/olivierstucky\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=74"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/people.unil.ch\/olivierstucky\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=74"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
