Statistical characteristics of output signals are analyzed for several conventional nonlinear non-adaptive filters. It is shown that output bias can be present and it depends upon the filter type, scanning window size and information content of the processed signal. Residual noise variance is also derived and studied. A soft-switching locally adaptive filter that takes into account the observed statistics is proposed and tested. %8 2008-09-12
