| # Speech Bubble Segmentation | |
| A Candle-compatible SafeTensors conversion of [`kitsumed/yolov8m_seg-speech-bubble`](https://huggingface.co/kitsumed/yolov8m_seg-speech-bubble) for locating and segmenting speech bubbles in comic and manga pages. | |
| ## Model details | |
| - Architecture: YOLOv8m-seg | |
| - Input size: 640 × 640 | |
| - Class: `speech bubble` | |
| - Mask prototypes: 192 | |
| - Mask coefficients: 32 | |
| - Default confidence threshold: 0.25 | |
| - Default NMS threshold: 0.45 | |
| - Default mask threshold: 0.5 | |
| ## Files and provenance | |
| - `model.safetensors`: converted floating-point weights with the original Ultralytics tensor names | |
| - `config.json`: loader, class, and postprocessing metadata | |
| - `config.yaml`: original upstream dataset configuration | |
| - Upstream revision: `da4efccf35a15c8a8c2564431a4b7e121d3e0d99` | |
| ## Intended use and limitations | |
| Use this model to produce speech-bubble masks for comic layout analysis, text placement, or rendering. It has one class and should not be treated as a general panel, character, or text detector. Validate thresholds and mask quality on the target comic style; training and evaluation artifacts are not included in this conversion. | |
