Abstract
Data processing systems (e.g. image processing systems) and methods are provided for processing a stream of data values (e.g. pixel values). A processing module implements processing of a particular pixel value of the stream by operating on a particular subset of pixel values of the stream, by: classifying each of the pixel values within the particular subset into a group of a set of groups; processing the particular pixel value using one or more of the pixel values of the particular subset in dependence on the classification of the pixel values of the particular subset into the groups, wherein said processing the particular pixel value comprises performing, in a consolidated operation, multiple processing functions which depend upon the classification of pixel values of the particular subset into the groups; and outputting the processed particular pixel value.
