Standard median filters preserve abrupt shifts (edges) and remove impulsive noise (outliers) from a constant signal but they deteriorate in trend periods. FIR median hybrid (FMH) filters are more flexible and also preserve shifts, but they are much more vulnerable to outliers. Application of...

Tests for shift detection in locally-stationary autoregressive time series are constructed which resist contamination by a substantial amount of outliers. Tests based on a comparison of local medians standardized by a highly robust estimate of the variability show reliable performance in a broad...
