Assertion failed error when using cv2.remap()

I'm trying to generate "crumpled" images using images obtained from a flatbed bed scanner.

By following the method described in the paper[Link] in the section 3.1. I've written the code generate the perturbed mesh .

This is the code to generate the perturbed mesh.

import numpy as np
import cv2
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

img = cv2.imread('/home/lab/render_docs/scan/4.png')

mr = img.shape[0]
mc = img.shape[1]

xx = np.arange(mr-1, -1, -1)
yy = np.arange(0, mc, 1)
[Y, X] = np.meshgrid(xx, yy)
ms = np.transpose(np.asarray([X.flatten('F'), Y.flatten('F')]), (1,0))

perturbed_mesh = ms
nv = np.random.randint(20) - 1
for k in range(nv):
    #Choosing one vertex randomly
    vidx = np.random.randint(np.shape(ms)[0])
    vtex = ms[vidx, :]
    #Vector between all vertices and the selected one
    xv  = perturbed_mesh - vtex
    #Random movement 
    mv = (np.random.rand(1,2) - 0.5)*20
    hxv = np.zeros((np.shape(xv)[0], np.shape(xv)[1] +1) )
    hxv[:, :-1] = xv
    hmv = np.tile(np.append(mv, 0), (np.shape(xv)[0],1))
    d = np.cross(hxv, hmv)
    d = np.absolute(d[:, 2])
    d = d / (np.linalg.norm(mv, ord=2))
    wt = d

    curve_type = np.random.rand(1)
    if curve_type > 0.3:
        alpha = np.random.rand(1) * 50 + 50
        wt = alpha / (wt + alpha)
    else:
        alpha = np.random.rand(1) + 1
        wt = 1 - (wt / 100 )**alpha
    msmv = mv * np.expand_dims(wt, axis=1)
    perturbed_mesh = perturbed_mesh + msmv

perturbed_mesh = mesh_perturb(img)
img = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)
dst = cv2.remap(img, perturbed_mesh[:, 0], perturbed_mesh[:, 1], cv2.INTER_CUBIC)
cv2.imshow('perturbed_im', dst)
cv2.waitKey(0)
cv2.destroyAllWindows()

When I run the code I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "pert_mesh.py", line 58, in <module>
    dst = cv2.remap(img, perturbed_mesh[:, 0], perturbed_mesh[:, 1], cv2.INTER_CUBIC)
cv2.error: OpenCV(3.4.2) /io/opencv/modules/imgproc/src/imgwarp.cpp:1728: error: (-215:Assertion failed) dst.cols < 32767 && dst.rows < 32767 && src.cols < 32767 && src.rows < 32767 in function 'remap'

I understand that error is due to perturbed_mesh being too large but how do I distort the image with its original size ?

This is how the perturbed mesh looks like: enter image description here
