gradient orientation for 0-180 histogram bins in opencv 2.4.9 visual studio 2013

I am trying to develop a facial emotion system using OpenCV 2.4.9 and C++ in Visual Studio 2013. I need to extract shape based facial features using pyramid HOG, i used cv::phase() for gradient orientation in range of 0-360... i tried to use cv::fastAtan2() for gradient 0-180 by first making the -ve gradient to be positive, but there are some dimension problem and code end with exception..if possible for anyone..kindly help me to solve this..thanks in advance. code i am using is as follows:
