In addition to my visualization book (OK fractals) you might look at
preprints of APL quote quad articles
http://webbox.lafayette.edu/~reiterc/j/withj/withj12_im_proc01_pp.pdf
http://webbox.lafayette.edu/~reiterc/j/withj/withj14_im_proc02_pp.pdf
and the vector paper
http://archive.vector.org.uk/art10500860
and ask the forum (or me) if you have questions -- I tend to always be a
couple days out of date on the forum, but I do browse it.
Those books and articles are best used with J6 but I hope that in a
semester or two I will transition to J8.
Best, Cliff

Hi Ben
Yes, in mathematica it takes approximately 2 minutes to do the 13x13
medianfilter for a 2004 x 2006 picture... I usually use much bigger
boxsizes (about 120x120), so I can pick up a coffee while the program
is running.
What you write about your use of J sounds promising to me. I ordered
the book from Reiter in the library and will have a look at it. The
tutorials you mentioned: are they somehow available?
Thanks a lot for your answers!

By the way, Cliff Reiter's median in J isn't slow at all, for example
compared to famous software like ImageMagick:
$ time convert -median 3x3 p19.pgm m3.pgm
real 0m11.961s
user 0m22.333s
sys 0m0.292s
$
$ time convert -median 13x13 p19.pgm m13.pgm
real 1m13.204s
user 2m22.517s
sys 0m0.352s
Good old xv uses 10s resp. 5 minutes.

(A median 3x3 median filter on a 3072x4608 image takes 18s, and a
13x13 median takes 47s).
This is on an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU at 2.00GHz , using the median
function from the already-mentioned book of Cliff Reiter "Fractals,
Visualization and J":
medianf =: 1 : '(2#m) "_ (<.-:*:m)&{@:(/:~)@,;._3 ]'
I have a C program doing the same in 0.7s resp. 1.2s, but when I
consider how much time it took me to write that one, I must compute
an awful lot of medians with it before earning back that time.

Hi
I should have been a bit more precise: I'm into astronomy. I'm mostly
interested in noise reduction / signal enhancement and therefore apply
different filters to the image. Some of this operations, like for
example the MedianFilter[] function, take a lot of computation time.
