+
+    :param src: Source image
+
+    :param dst: Destination image
+
+    :param center: The transformation center;
+
+    :param maxRadius: Inverse magnitude scale parameter. See below
+
+    :param flags: A combination of interpolation methods and the following optional flags:
+
+            *  **CV_WARP_FILL_OUTLIERS** fills all of the destination image pixels. If some of them correspond to outliers in the source image, they are set to zero
+
+            *  **CV_WARP_INVERSE_MAP** See below
+
+The function ``cvLinearPolar`` transforms the source image using the following transformation:
+
+  *
+    Forward transformation (``CV_WARP_INVERSE_MAP`` is not set):
+
+        .. math::
+
+            dst( \phi , \rho ) = src(x,y)
+
+
+  *
+    Inverse transformation (``CV_WARP_INVERSE_MAP`` is set):
+
+        .. math::
+
+            dst(x,y) = src( \phi , \rho )
+
+
+where
+
+    .. math::
+
+        \rho = (src.width/maxRadius)  \cdot \sqrt{x^2 + y^2} , \phi =atan(y/x)
+
+
+The function can not operate in-place.
