OpenCV Error: Assertion failed in matrix.cpp line 522, /matrix.cpp:522: error: (-215)

I am trying to create an ROI above the face detected to place a hat like shown in the image: Plz click here : ROI created above face to place a hat

I have made sure that the ROI created is withing the bounds of the image. It looks like this: // Create an ROI // where face is the detected face ROI

    if (0<=face.x && 0<=face.x-face.width*0.08<=image.cols && 0<=face.x+face.width+face.width*0.08<=image.cols 
         && 0<=face.y && 0<=face.y-face.height*0.28<=image.rows)
    {
      Mat ROI_hat = image(Rect(abs(face.x-face.width*0.08),abs(face.y-face.height*0.28),abs(face.x+face.width+face.width*0.08),abs(face.y)));
      rectangle(image,Point(abs(face.x-face.width*0.08),abs(face.y-face.height*0.28)),Point(abs(face.x+face.width+face.width*0.08),abs(face.y)),Scalar(255, 0, 0), 1, 4);

      cout<<"Within the bounds of Image"<<endl;
    }
    else{
     cout<<" Out of bounds of Image "<<endl;
        }

There are no negative values and for every frame it says ROI is withing the bounds. But I still get assertion error:

OpenCV Error: Assertion failed (0 <= roi.x && 0 <= roi.width && roi.x + roi.width <= m.cols && 0 <= roi.y && 0 <= roi.height && roi.y + roi.height <= m.rows) in Mat, file /home/user/OpenCV_Installed/opencv-3.2.0/modules/core/src/ma‌​trix.cpp, line 522 terminate called after throwing an instance of 'cv::Exception' what(): /home/user/OpenCV_Installed/opencv-3.2.0/modules/core/src/ma‌​trix.cpp:522: error: (-215) 0 <= roi.x && 0 <= roi.width && roi.x + roi.width <= m.cols && 0 <= roi.y && 0 <= roi.height && roi.y + roi.height <= m.rows in function Mat Aborted (core dumped)

Can someone please tell me where I'm going wrong?

The error means that your ROI is outside of the image, so your conditions are wrong.

Since it's pretty easy to get confused, I usually apply this small trick that is based on the intersection of the roi with a dummy roi roiImg that contains all the image:

Rect roiImg(0, 0, image.cols, image.rows);
Rect roi = ... // Very complex way of setting up the ROI

if( (roi.area() > 0) && ((roiImg & roi).area() == roi.area()) ) {
    // roi is inside the image, and is non-empty
    // VALID roi
} else {
    // roi is at least partially outside of the image, or it's empty
    // INVALID roi
}
