python opencv TypeError: Layout of the output array incompatible with cv::Mat

Question

I\'m using the selective search here: http://koen.me/research/selectivesearch/ This gives possible regions of interest where an object might be. I want to do some processing

Answer 1

My own solution was simply to ask a copy of original array...(god & gary bradski knows why...)

im = dbimg[i]
bb = boxes[i]  
m = im.transpose((1, 2, 0)).astype(np.uint8).copy() 
pt1 = (bb[0],bb[1])
pt2 = (bb[0]+bb[2],bb[1]+bb[3])  
cv2.rectangle(m,pt1,pt2,(0,255,0),2)
