Norbert Wiener the development of the digital theory. Wiener originated cybernetics, a formalization of the notion of feedback, with many implications for engineering, systems control, computer science, biology, philosophy, and the organization of society. Wiener's work with cybernetics influenced Gregory Bateson and Margaret Mead, and through them, anthropology, sociology, and education. A simple mathematical representation of Brownian motion, the Wiener equation, named after Wiener, assumes the current velocity of a fluid particle fluctuates randomly. For signal processing, the Wiener filter is a filter proposed by Wiener during the 1940s and published in 1942 as a classified document. Its purpose is to reduce
Wiener algebra Wiener algebra In mathematics, the Wiener algebra, named after Norbert Wiener and usually denoted by , is the space of absolutely convergent Fourier series. Here denotes the circle group. The norm of a function is given by where is the th Fourier coefficient of . The Wiener algebra is closed under pointwise multiplication of functions. Indeed, therefore Thus the Wiener algebra is a commutative unitary Banach algebra. Also, is isomorphic to the Banach algebra , with the isomorphism given by the Fourier transform. The sum of an absolutely convergent Fourier series is continuous, so where is the ring of continuous
