Research on a Dynamic Algorithm for Cow Weighing Based on an SVM and Empirical Wavelet Transform
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
This paper proposes a dynamic algorithm for cow weighing based on SVM and empirical wavelet transform. This topic is practical and interesting. The reviewer’s comments are given below.
- The author should introduce that how to estimate the true weight of a cow by using the dynamic weighing data.
- How to distinguish between the slow and fast signal should be further clarified.
- It seems that the proposed algorithm does not need the data about the walking speed. Can the speed measuring device be replaced by an algorithm?
- The improvement of the proposed algorithm is not significant comparing with the existing EMD algorithm. Maybe speed is not the main factor causing measurement errors.

Reviewer 2 Report
The summary and conclusions should briefly outline the approach.
It seems strange in the graphs to present the units of measurement by a fraction.
The experimental equipment should be described in more detail: parameters, accuracy.
