OpenCV Error: Assertion failed (dsize.area() > 0) in cv::resize

在resize一张 34867*15951 的图片到原先的两倍尺寸时报错

OpenCV Error: Assertion failed (dsize.area() > 0 || (inv_scale_x > 0 && inv_scale_y > 0)) in cv::resize, file D:\Build\OpenCV\opencv-3.2.0\modules\imgproc\src\imgwarp.cpp, line 3493

这种情况一般是因为读取的图片为空，但是如果将fx、fy设置为1.8，是可以正常出结果的，所以不是这个问题。

之前也遇到过，一直没有解决，今天看了stackoverflow 上的一篇文章

So it turns out that the problem comes from one line in modules\imgproc\src\imgwarp.cpp:
CV_Assert( ssize.area() > 0 );
When the product of rows and columns of the image to be resized is larger than 2^31, ssize.area() results in a negative number. This appears to be a bug in OpenCV and hopefully will be fixed in the future release. A temporary fix is to build OpenCV with this line commented out. While not ideal, it works for me. 
And I just recently found out that the above applies only to image whose width is larger than height. For images with height larger than width, it's the following line that causes error: 
CV_Assert( dsize.area() > 0 );
So this has to be commented out as well. 

介绍到当被处理的图像的size大于2^31时会溢出为负数，所以导致该bug。下面简单验证下

(34867*2*15951*2 = 2,224,654,068) > (2^31 = 2,147,483,648) > (34867*1.8*15951*1.8 = 1801969795.08)

的确是这样。

原文也说了解决办法，在编译opencv的时候注释掉源代码中的几行断言。

博主是windows平台，没有用编译安装，所以采用另一种方法——使用scipy.misc.imsize()函数，调用格式如下：

img = scipy.misc.imresize(img, 200, interp='cubic')
