I need to generate a gabor Kernel, and for this purpose I use the getGaborKernel function.

But it seems that this function return me a kernel with real values, while i need a Gabor kernel with complex values.

How do I obtain this?! There is another function, or there are some parameters that give me complex values as result?!

thanks...

According to the source code of the getGaborKernel() function (see here or refer to the source of OpenCV 2.4.9), it only returns the real part of a Gabor filter (see more at Gabor filter at wiki). For the imaginary part, you can change the source code line from:

double v = scale*std::exp(ex*xr*xr + ey*yr*yr)*cos(cscale*xr + psi);

to:

double v2 = scale*std::exp(ex*xr*xr + ey*yr*yr)*sin(cscale*xr + psi);

and return the Mat object containing all the needed values.

guess you mean to actually add the v2 line and compute both instead of changing it, or am I wrong?

I mean to write another function of the same code, except the line above, to return the imaginary part or, a little bit harder, in the same function, but return a Mat object of two channels: one for the real part, the other for the imaginary part.

Hey, it is exactly what I need... Thanks a lot!
