Dear reviewer

According to your criticisms, the article has been revised one by one, as follows:
1. In the introduction, many related researches are discussed. However, what are the characteristics of the methods used in this paper in this field? What are the shortcomings of the existing methods to solve problem “crushing mouth loose material jam” ? This is important and should be supplemented, which is one of the motivations of this article.
----It supplements the description of the existing "material blockage" solutions, summarizes the shortcomings of these methods, and puts forward the advantages of this method. The characteristics of this method have been described in the introduction chapter of the original text.
2. Summarize 3-4 contributions, put them behind the introduction, and arrange subsequent chapters,
----Three references and related contents are supplemented.
3. Why use the SSD method, not the Faster R-CNN or other method, such as transformer? Please supplement.
----Some indexes comparison with Faster R-CNN method are added in Section 5.2.
4. Check formula of 139 lines: x_ij^p=1 and x_ij^p=0.
----Modified 139 lines.
5. As for the performance of the model, comparative experiments with other detection methods should be supplemented.
----Some indexes comparison with Faster R-CNN method are added in Section 5.2.
6. Figure 7 is not clear enough, draw a new one.
----Redrawing a clearer picture.

Yours Sincerely,
