The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Fast visibility restoration from a single color or gray level image (2009, methodology): “In [9], a fast implementation of the median filter in O(sxsy) is proposed.”
Constant Time Weighted Median Filtering for Stereo Matching and Beyond (2013, background): “The weighted median filter inherits some desired properties from both median filtering and edge-aware averaging filtering (the guided filter).”
Guided Image Filtering (2010, methodology): “Because the moving histogram in [56] is proposed only for median filtering, the combination of [18]+[56], to the best of our knowledge, is an unpublished state-of-theart of bilateral filtering in the literature.”
Lesion border detection in dermoscopy images (2009, methodology): “• Computational time: For the GF and MF, algorithms that perform in constant time independent of the mask size have been developed [13, 14].”
Fast Image Processing with Fully-Convolutional Networks (2017, background): “Another family of dedicated acceleration schemes addresses the median filter and its variants [72, 61, 54, 80].”
