I am getting error in pushback() function.The error is as followes I want to know the reason for this error. Size of input arguments do not match in push_back(), /-/-/src/matrix.cpp line821

UPDATE

I have edited the code a bit. Now both positive and negative images are 150*150. The problem is out the two for loops(one for positive and one for negative) only one of them is runnung corrctly. The forloop involving negative images is runnung without error only when i comment out the first for loop.

Can anyone please help with this. PS. all images pos and neg are of same size and format
