Image processing methods and systems are described in which filtering operations are applied to images, wherein the filtering operations use filter costs which are based on image gradients in the images. In this way, image data is filtered for image regions in dependence upon the image gradients for the image regions. This may be useful for different scenarios such as when combining images to form a High Dynamic Range (HDR) image. The filtering operations may be used as part of a connectivity unit which determines connected image regions, and/or the filtering operations may be used as part of a blending unit which blends two or more images together to form a blended image. |
