Robot Closed-Loop Grasping Based on Deep Visual Servoing Feature Network
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
Comments and Suggestions for Authors
Below are my comments:
1. Performance Testing in Complex Environments
The method proposed in the paper has shown promising results under controlled conditions; however, its performance in scenarios with complete occlusions or rapidly moving targets has not been sufficiently demonstrated. This limitation restricts the applicability of the method in a broader range of real-world applications, where robots often need to operate in complex and variable environments such as outdoors or industrial settings.
2. Validation of Model Generalization
While the model's effectiveness on specific datasets is established, its generalization capabilities when faced with diverse datasets remain untested. This could lead to performance degradation when the model encounters new scenes, especially when there are significant differences in object shape, size, and material from the training data.
3 . Challenges in Sim2Real Transfer
The paper does not address how to bridge the gap between the model's performance in simulated environments and real-world deployment, which may stem from discrepancies in physical properties and sensor noise between the simulated and real worlds. This could result in suboptimal performance when the model is applied in practical scenarios.
4. Real-time Performance of the Model
In certain application scenarios, such as emergency response or human-robot interaction, robots need to make decisions and respond quickly. The paper lacks an assessment of the model's performance under these strict real-time requirements, which may imply that the model fails to meet the demands of time-sensitive tasks in practical applications.
5. Robustness Testing of the Model
Robustness measures a model's ability to maintain performance in the face of anomalous inputs. The paper does not include tests of the model under adversarial attacks, sensor failures, or unexpected disturbances, which could lead to a decline in performance when the model encounters uncertainties and challenges in the real world.
6. Diversity in Experimental Design
The experimental design should ideally emulate the diversity and complexity of the real world. If the experiments in the paper are too singular, they may not fully assess the model's performance under varying conditions, especially when confronted with novel situations not present in the experiments. This limitation could affect the comprehensive evaluation of the model's practicality and reliability.

Reviewer 2 Report
Comments and Suggestions for AuthorsThe paper entitled “Robot Closed-Loop Grasping Based on Deep Visual Servoing Feature Network” presents a novel deep learning-based approach to enhance robotic grasping in complex environments.
The paper is well structured, the information is delivered in an understandable way, and the contributions of the authors are underlined in an adequate manner.
Nevertheless, there are some aspects that all authors should consider in order to offer a valuable scientific paper.
1. The authors should take into consideration the introduction of a paragraph, at the end of section 1, where a short description of the section could be made.
2. I suggest providing a detailed explanation for the choice of Darknet-53 as the backbone for the DVSFN architecture. Highlight the trade-offs it offers in terms of computational efficiency, accuracy, and real-time performance compared to other architectures.
3. I recommend elaborating on how the proposed approach outperforms other state-of-the-art methods, such as Keypoint RCNN, RTMPose, and HRNet. Specifically, describe how the system handles occlusion, low-light conditions, and other challenges better than these alternatives.
4. I suggest including a discussion about the limitations of the method, such as its reliance on advanced hardware or sensitivity to environmental variations.
5. I also suggest offering more detailed interpretations of the experimental results, including statistical reliability (e.g., confidence intervals or variability across trials). This will help reinforce the validity and significance of your findings.
6. Please take into consideration splitting Figure 7 in order to enlarge the resulting figures and clearly present the images from the camera. In the current format, their interpretation is very difficult.
7. I recommend discussing the extent to which the model can be generalized to other object categories, robotic configurations, or camera setups. Providing insights into its adaptability will enhance the relevance of your work for broader applications in robotic systems.
