This paper studies the positioning method of DPM 2D barcode image. Because of the reflective problems of metal surface, the barcode image gotten will have uneven illumination, high light issues. In this paper, the homomorphic filtering method is used to enhance the image. Then the gradient projection is used to positioning the barcode region preliminary. We use an adaptive threshold method composed of Otsu method and neighborhood threshold method to solve the error segmentation problem. Finally the convex hull algorithm is applied to locate barcode region. Experiment results show that this method can effectively locate the barcode region quickly.

Social structures such as families emerge as outcomes of behavioural interactions among individuals, and can evolve over time if families with particular types of social structures tend to leave more individuals in subsequent generations. The social behaviour of interacting individuals is typically analysed as a series of multiple dyadic (pair-wise) interactions, rather than a network of interactions among multiple individuals. However, in species where parents feed dependant young, interactions within families nearly always involve more than two individuals simultaneously. Such social networks of interactions at least partly reflect conflicts of interest over the provision of costly parental investment. Consequently, variation in family network structure reflects variation in how conflicts of interest are resolved among family members. Despite its importance in understanding the evolution of emergent properties of social organization such as family life and cooperation, nothing is currently known about how selection acts on the structure of social networks. Here, we show that the social network structure of broods of begging nestling great tits Parus major predicts fitness in families. Although selection at the level of the individual favours large nestlings, selection at the level of the kin-group primarily favours families that resolve conflicts most effectively.
