She is conducting research on saliency estimation on European comics and natural images. Her current research interests include measuring human attention, computer vision and machine learning.<\/p>\n<p>Within the framework of the project, Bahar is conducting eye-tracking experiments to assess which elements can be modified and even removed in the reconfiguration<br \/>\nprocess. She collects attention data from various sources such as mouse-tracking, eye-tracking and online crowdsourcing experiments.<\/p>\n<p>As an alternative to collecting attention data from readers, she developed a deep-learning<br \/>\napproach to estimate saliency in comics. Due to the lack of annotated data in the comics domain, this method for now relies on natural images. It uses the high-level and low-level contrast between the multiple objects in a scene. This approach contains an object detector that can be adapted into the comics domain. This study was conducted in collaboration with Deblina Bhattacharjee, Seungryong Kim, and Tong Zhang.<\/p>\n<p>She is also collaborating with Rapha\u00ebl Baroni on an empirical study of the reading of one-page French comic strips using eye-tracking technology.

Thereafter, she worked as a deep learning research engineer in Samsung until 2019. She joined EPFL in Lausanne, Switzerland for her doctoral thesis in 2019 where she is working on reconfiguring comics to digital platforms by focusing on depth estimation of comics characters. To achieve this goal, she is studying the depth of comics characters and object instances in the comics panels, so that they can be repositioned. However, estimating depth within such panels is an ill-posed problem as they are monocular and lack annotated ground-truth data. To tackle this, Deblina has explored domain adaptation methods to leverage the depth information from real world images onto the comics domain. In particular, Deblina developed an instance level, detection-based unsupervised image-to-image (I2I) translation technique, which focused on translating the characters in a scene from one domain to another, in this case from the comics domain to the real-world domain. The results of this study led to a publication at the IEEE Conference of Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (CVPR 2020).<\/p>\n<p>Further, Deblina has developed a contextual saliency method developed in collaboration with Bahar Aydemir to guide her depth estimation task. To that end, Deblina is currently exploring the notion of context between multiple comics panels that will use attention to guide the depth estimation task. Finally, to bring all this together, she is developing an end-to-end multi-task learning architecture that will optimize each task as per the user requirements. This multi-task learning framework will rely on her current findings about context and attention between multiple comics panels. The results are projected to be published in the next conference on computer vision.<\/p>\n<p>Deblina is also an active member of the International Machine Learning Society since 2016 and a Google Women Scholar.

For his doctoral thesis, he studies the phenomena of narrative reconfigurations in comics by focusing on the cases of narrative transfers between two publication media. Between theory and history of comics, this work is articulated around systematic approaches focused on cases of transfer integrated into editorial strategies at different scales: from the illustrated press to the album, from the album to the pocket book, to the CD-ROM or to online reading platforms. The corpus of analysis mobilised by Olivier Stucky, based on Franco-Belgian production, thus includes, in addition to publications in the well-known form of albums, objects with varied formal and material characteristics, to which the field of comic studies has as yet devoted little theoretical work and whose editorial history is often unknown.<\/p>\n<p>As part of the project, Olivier Stucky co-edited a bilingual lexicon of visual and functional units in comics with Ga\u00eblle Kovaliv and participated, with Ga\u00eblle Kovaliv and Rapha\u00ebl Baroni, in the writing of a synthesis article on the obstacles to the emergence of digital publishing media in the context of European and Francophone comics.
