Abstract

As one of the mobile phone contents, electronic books and magazine, especially comics, are expected to have great potential. In order to view comics on mobile phones, the resolution and the size of screens must be adequate. A comic then needs to be decomposed into frames and put them in order so that they can be read properly. However, it is known that accurate decomposition is not an easy task. In this paper, we propose a fast and accurate clipping method using contour tracing and evaluate it comparing with an existing commercial system.
