论文摘要
从小说和电影等小说中提取和分析角色网络的任务一直是许多最近出版物的对象。但是，其中只有很少的专注于图形小说，而在欧洲图形小说上更少。在本文中，我们专注于Thorgal，Bande Dessin {é} e，即法国贝尔吉亚传统的漫画。我们手动注释了本系列的所有卷，以构成一个语料库，使我们能够提取其角色网络。我们对网络结构进行描述性分析，并将其与现实世界和虚构的社交网络进行比较。我们还研究了字符过滤对网络结构的影响。最后，我们利用复杂的网络分析工具来回答文献中的两个研究问题，与索尔加尔和冰岛人之间的相似性有关。以及该系列中女性的位置。我们的数据和源代码都在线公开可用。
The task of extracting and analyzing character networks from works of fiction, such as novels and movies, has been the object of a number of recent publications. However, only a very few of them focus on graphic novels, and even fewer on European graphic novels. In this article, we focus on Thorgal, a bande dessin{é}e, i.e. a comic of the French-Belgian tradition. We manually annotate all the volumes of this series, in order to constitute a corpus allowing us to extract its character network. We perform a descriptive analysis of the network structure and compare it to real-world and fictional social networks. We also study the effect of character filtering over the network structure. Finally, we leverage complex network analysis tools to answer two research questions from the literature, related to the similarity between Thorgal and the Saga of Icelanders; and to the position of women in the series. Our data and source code are both publicly available online.
