Abstract:
We conducted experiments in which we asked large samples of Japanese students to read approximately 100 frames of story manga. We then requested that the students select between 5-20% of the frames necessary for the abstract. Once completed, we reviewed the n-th frames where the selectivity was the highest to see if it was an accurate summary, regardless of n. Our goal was to investigate whether it is possible to summarize comics by collective intelligence. In this experiment, we made the students read an English version of the Manga. We wanted to see if the collective intelligence still worked if read in a different language. The results obtained show that how robust the collective intelligence is.
