I may be wrong, but I suspect this isn't going to be practicable as a CIFilter. Core Image Filter work by running identical code on each and every one of the input image's pixels, and there's no way of creating a persistant variable to keep track of values between iterations, to my knowledge.

I'm trying to write my first Core Image filter to find the "median" color for a single row/column of pixels, very similar to the built- in CIRowAverage filter.

To find the median value in a set, I need to sort the set from lowest to highest color values and then find the value in the middle if the set is odd, or average the 2 middle values if the set is even.

Since this is my first attempt at graphics programming on the GPU I don't know if it makes sense for this problem (sorting)?

Any advise?

Thanks.
