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.
