Abstract

We present eBDtheque, a database of various comic book images and their ground truth for panels, balloons and text lines plus semantic annotations. The database consists of a hundred pages of various comic book albums, Franco-Belgian, American comics and mangas. Additionally, we present the piece of software used to establish the ground truth and a tool to validate results against this ground truth. Everything is publicly available for scientific use on http://ebdtheque.univ-lr.fr.
