Abstract
Data processing systems (e.g. image processing systems) and methods are provided for processing a stream of data values (e.g. pixel values). The image processing system comprises a processing module configured to: receive a plurality of pixel values; and implement processing of a particular pixel value by operating on a particular subset of the received pixel values, by: defining a set of one or more groups into which pixel values within the particular subset can be grouped; classifying each of the pixel values within the particular subset into one of the groups of the set of one or more groups based on the value of that pixel value; 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 one or more groups; and outputting the processed particular pixel value.
