Invertibility of a system with a median filter
I know is that for a system to be invertible it should be mapping one-one, but what happens in this signal?, I feel like I need to know the value of $x[n]$ before.
$y[n]= \mathrm{median}\{x[n-1],x[n],...

How to choose median filter width?
In my signal processing pipeline, I normally expect data sampled at 100Hz, on which I then apply a median filter of width 10.
My question is: How should I change the width for data sampled at ...
