Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for efficiently, quickly, and flexibly applying median filters to digital image utilizing a separable sorting network approach for computation sharing. For example, the disclosed systems generate a modified digital image by determining pixel values for a number of output tiles in applying a median filter. To generate output tiles, in some implementations, the disclosed systems utilize different forms of separability to precompute sorted columns of pixels to reduce the size of per-pixel tasks required to generate output pixels and to share computations among nearby pixels of an input tile captured from a digital image in generating output tiles. In some implementations, the disclosed systems utilize an interpreter to generate and apply a median filter to a digital image at runtime based on a user-selected filter size.
