I am new in opencv. After completing Fourier transform, i have also got display the angle.I want to show in my window how many degree it is.please give me some idea.

// crop the spectrum, if it has an odd number of rows or columns
    canny_image = canny_image(Rect(0, 0, canny_image.cols & -2, canny_image.rows & -2));


 // rearrange the quadrants of Fourier image  so that the origin is at the image center
    int cx = canny_image.cols/2;
    int cy = canny_image.rows/2;

    Mat q0(canny_image, Rect(0, 0, cx, cy));   // Top-Left - Create a ROI per quadrant
    Mat q1(canny_image, Rect(cx, 0, cx, cy));  // Top-Right
    Mat q2(canny_image, Rect(0, cy, cx, cy));  // Bottom-Left
    Mat q3(canny_image, Rect(cx, cy, cx, cy)); // Bottom-Right

    Mat tmp;                           // swap quadrants (Top-Left with Bottom-Right)
    q0.copyTo(tmp);
    q3.copyTo(q0);
    tmp.copyTo(q3);

    q1.copyTo(tmp);                    // swap quadrant (Top-Right with Bottom-Left)
    q2.copyTo(q1);
    tmp.copyTo(q2);

    normalize(canny_image, canny_image, 0, 1, CV_MINMAX); // Transform the matrix with float values into a
                                            // viewable image form (float between values 0 and 1).
 imshow("spectrum magnitude", canny_image);

First split the complex (2 channel) image in two separate images containing the real and imaginary part:

Mat planes[2];
split(canny_image,planes);

...assuming that the canny_image is complex. Then use the cartToPolar function to get the phase (angle) and magnitude:

Mat magn,angl;
cartToPolar(planes[0],planes[1],magn,angl,true);

The last parameter (true) defines that you want the results in degrees.

You can do this in two steps using the magnitude and phase functions in a similar manner.

Thanks for your replay.I have flow your instruction.But i need to calculate the angle,How many degree, example 45 degree, in my screen it will show 45 degree. Mat magnitude,angl; cartToPolar(planes[0],planes[1], magnitude,angl,true); cout << "degree=" <<true << endl; log(magnitude,magnitude); magnitude = magnitude(Rect(0, 0, magnitude.cols & -2, magnitude.rows & -2));

Oh, I see. You don't want to get the angle (phase) of the Fourier transform, you want to get the dominant orientation of the image!

In this case, you have to check which is the direction with the most intensity from the center of the image. The easiest way to do this is to transform the magnitude matrix with a LogPolar transform, then make a horizontal sum of the elements (reduce function), finally search for the position of the maximum (minmaxloc function).
