Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Character recognition in manga is an important task to improve the usability of e-comics through recommendation systems and automatic translation systems.
However, character identification in manga is difficult because the style of manga varies greatly from author to author and work to work.
In this paper, we propose a clustering method for manga face images, which is robust for unknown authors and works.
In particular, we show that training the model using domain generalization with self-supervised learning enables effective feature extraction even for unknown styles.
We also show that the constraints based on domain-specific knowledge in manga improve clustering accuracy.
As a result of experiments on a manga image dataset, we confirmed that the proposed method improves the clustering accuracy.
