Abstract	A method for automatic e-comic scene frame extraction is proposed for displaying large scale of comic scenes onto relatively small size of display screen such as mobile devices. In line with the rapid development of mobile devices, reading comic in small screen mobile devices is also demanded and required. The challenge in providing e-comics for small screen is how to separate comic scene frames and display it in the right order to read. We propose Automatic E-Comic Frame Extraction (ACFE) for extraction of scene frames from a digital comic page automatically. ACFE is based on the blob extraction method using connected component labeling algorithm, together with a filter combination pre-processing and efficient method for detection of line between frames. Experimental results show that 91.483 percent of 634 pages in 5 digital comics are successfully extracted into scene frames by the proposed method.
