  • Abstract
    In this paper we present the derivation of the bivariate distribution function for median filtered sequences of independent, arbitrary, second-order random variables. This result is then used to qualitatively analyze second moment properties of median filtered data. The results hint towards a low-pass characteristic of the median filters and a low dependency of the output spectrum on input alphabet size and distribution.
