Abstract
An apparatus includes a first circuit, a second circuit and a third circuit. The first circuit may be configured to (i) receive an image in a raster order, where the image has a plurality of data values arranged in a plurality of raster lines, and (ii) set a flag corresponding to a current value among the data values in a current line of the raster lines to indicate that the current value is a maximum value in a one-dimensional window in the current line. The second circuit may be configured to reset the flag based on one or more previous lines of the raster lines to indicate that the current value is not the maximum value in a two-dimensional window around the current value. The third circuit may be configured to generate an output value in the current line based on the flag.
