ABSTRACT:
A system, apparatus, method and article to filter media signals are described. The apparatus may include a media processor. The media processor may include an image signal processor having multiple processing elements to concurrently process a pixel matrix by executing single instruction stream, multiple data streams instructions to determine a matrix median pixel value, and replace a pixel value from said pixel matrix with said matrix median pixel value. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
