--- license: mit tags: - object-detection - manga - yolov8 - speech-bubble-detection - ultralytics datasets: - PSImera/manga_bubbles_detect --- # manga_bubbles_detect > [Русская версия](README-RU.md) YOLOv8 model for detecting speech bubbles in manga pages. Trained to locate bubble bounding boxes (single class `location-of-bubbles`). **Validation mAP50 ≈ 0.977** Part of [Manga Translate](https://github.com/PSImera/manga_translate) — a full manga translation pipeline (bubble detection → OCR → inpaint → LLM → render).  ## Usage ```python from ultralytics import YOLO model = YOLO("bubbles_detect.pt") results = model.predict("page.jpg", conf=0.25, iou=0.5, imgsz=1024) ``` Or use it automatically via the [Manga Translate](https://github.com/PSImera/manga_translate) app — the model is downloaded from here on first run. ## Training data Trained on a combined dataset published at [PSImera/manga_bubbles_detect](https://huggingface.co/datasets/PSImera/manga_bubbles_detect): - [manga.v4i (Roboflow)](https://universe.roboflow.com/manga-wtdm0/manga-mvbxx) — 1304/189/103 train/valid/test pages - 1079 additional pages from [DLS Manga Translator](https://github.com/ikefir34/DLS_Manga_Translator), manually corrected in CVAT Training scripts and reports: [training/](https://github.com/PSImera/manga_translate/tree/main/training)
