Opencv Matrix multiplication

Question

i need to multiply a matrix and its transpose but i get the following error :

\"OpenCV Error: Assertion failed (type == B.type() && (type == CV_32FC1 || type ==

Answer 1

OpenCV only supports matrix multiplication for matrices of floating point real or complex types.

You are creating matrix of signed integer type.

Supported types are:

CV_32FC1 //real float
CV_32FC2 //complex float
CV_64FC1 //real double
CV_64FC2 //complex double

The following similar code will work:

float dA[] = {
     1,     2,     3,
     4,     5,     6,
     6,     5,     4,
    }; 
Mat A = Mat(3,3, CV_32F, dA );
Mat C = A.t()* A;
