Balloon Detection¶
The tool’s balloon (bubble) detection uses offline balloon detection models trained by Darknet Yolo or TensorFlow Object Detection API.
Existing offline model: balloon detection model for manga.
It can also uses object detection services provided by Baidu EasyDL and Azure. You need to create your own account and train your own model.
Recommended labeling methods:
Box text areas in all balloons. Let the box fits the text as closely as possible.
After the model is published, you can set the URL through File-Preferences-API setting. The corresponding API key is also required.
Text Image Recognition¶
By default, the software uses the local model to recognize text and non text areas. You can also call an API service.
