The dataset contains five subtask or skills:

Sequence Filling

Sequence Filling

Given a sequence of comic panels, a missing panel, and a set of option panels, the task is to pick the panel that best fits the sequence.

Character Coherence, Visual Closure, Text Closure

Character Coherence

These skills require understanding the context sequence to then pick the best panel to continue the story, focusing on the characters, the visual elements, and the text:

  • Character Coherence: Given a sequence of comic panels, pick the panel from the two options that best continues the story in a coherent with the characters. Both options are the same panel, but the text in the speech bubbles has been swapped.
  • Visual Closure: Given a sequence of comic panels, pick the panel from the options that best continues the story in a coherent way with the visual elements.
  • Text Closure: Given a sequence of comic panels, pick the panel from the options that best continues the story in a coherent way with the text. All options are the same panel, but with text in the speech retrieved from different panels.
Caption Relevance

Caption Relevance

Given a caption from the previous panel, select the panel that best continues the story.

Map to single images

If your model can only process single images, you can render each sample as a single image:

Evaluation

The evaluation metric for all tasks is the accuracy of the model's predictions. The overall accuracy is calculated as the weighted average of the accuracy of each subtask, with the weights being the number of examples in each subtask.

To evaluate on the test set you must submit your predictions to the Robust Reading Competition website, as a json file with the following structure:

[
    { "sample_id" : "sample_id_0", "correct_panel_id" : 3},
    { "sample_id" : "sample_id_1", "correct_panel_id" : 1},
    { "sample_id" : "sample_id_2", "correct_panel_id" : 4},
    ...,
]

Where sample_id is the id of the sample, correct_panel_id is the prediction of your model as the index of the correct panel in the options.

Pseudocode for the evaluation on val set, adapt for your model:
skills = {
    "sequence_filling": {
        "num_examples": 262
    },
    "char_coherence": {
        "num_examples": 143
    },
    "visual_closure": {
        "num_examples": 300
    },
    "text_closure": {
        "num_examples": 259
    },
    "caption_relevance": {
        "num_examples": 262
    }
}

for skill in skills:
    dataset = load_dataset("VLR-CVC/ComicsPAP", skill, split="val")
    correct = 0
    total = 0
    for example in dataset:
        # Your model prediction
        prediction = model.generate(**example)
        prediction = post_process(prediction)
        if prediction == example["solution_index"]:
            correct += 1
        total += 1
    accuracy = correct / total
    print(f"Accuracy for {skill}: {accuracy}")

    assert total == skills[skill]["num_examples"]
    skills[skill]["accuracy"] = accuracy

# Calculate overall accuracy
total_examples = sum(skill["num_examples"] for skill in skills.values())
overall_accuracy = sum(skill["num_examples"] * skill["accuracy"] for skill in skills.values()) / total_examples
print(f"Overall accuracy: {overall_accuracy}")
