Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Comics play an important role in both the entertainment and the cultural heritage. With the growth of digitized comics, image understanding techniques are becoming important. In this paper, we focus on object detection, which is a fundamental task of image understanding. Although convolutional neural networks (CNN)-based methods archived good performance in object detection for naturalistic images, there is a problem in applying these methods to the comic object detection task. The problem is that the objects in comics are highly overlapped compared to naturalistic images. This overlap causes the assignment problem in the existing CNN-based methods. To solve this problem, we proposed a new CNN-based detector, SSD300-fork. We compared SSD300-fork with other detection methods and confirmed that our model outperformed them based on the mAP score.
