  Filter (mathematics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The dual notion of a filter is an ideal.
That interpretation of membership in a filter is used (for motivation, although it is not needed for actual proofs) in the theory of ultraproducts in model theory, a branch of mathematical logic.
In topology and analysis, filters are used to define convergence in a manner similar to the role of sequences in a metric space.

An ultraproduct is a mathematical construction, which is used in abstract algebra to construct new fields from given ones, and in model theory, a branch of mathematical logic.
In mathematics, model theory is the study of the representation of mathematical concepts in terms of set theory, or the study of the models which underlie mathematical systems.
Mathematical logic is a discipline within mathematics, studying formal systems in relation to the way they encode intuitive concepts of proof and computation as part of the foundations of mathematics.

Filters are useful in topology: they play the role of sequences in metric spaces.

An important special case of order filters are filters of sets, which are obtained by taking the powerset of a set S as a partial order, ordered by subset inclusion.
Given a filter F on a set X and a function, the set forms a filter base for a filter which, in a slight abuse of notation, we denote by.

 Engineers Look to Kalman Filtering for Guidance
In Kalman filtering, the connection is assumed to be linear, and there is an additional "noise" vector representing uncertainties in the dynamics of the system: $x(k) = M(k)x(k - 1) + u(k)$, where $M(k)$ is a linear transformation describing the time-evolution of the system and $u(k)$ has known (or postulated) statistical properties.
A Kalman filter is needed to estimate the coefficients used in constructing the antinoise.
Before the development of the Kalman filter, practitioners were limping along with a device known as the Wiener filter, which was developed in the 1940s by Norbert Wiener of MIT in response to some of the very practical technological problems that arose during the Second World War.

On the other hand, because mathematics is a rigorous and challenging course of study that trains the mind, I require of my own children that they take the highest level of mathematics possible all through their high schools years--regardless of what they wish to pursue as careers in college and later in life.
If a student doesn't continue in mathematics through calculus or pre-calculus while still in high school--perhaps for lack of early interest in pursuing a career in science or engineering--that student will need to do a lot of catching up if he or she discovers later on that indeed, science and engineering are interesting after all.
Frankly, our mathematics department is the least connective across disciplines and we have had to hire people with good high school backgrounds as instructors to meet the needs of the developmental and QL courses.

 Chebyshev
Pogorelski was the author of some of the most popular elementary mathematics texts in Russia at the time and certainly inspired his pupil and gave him a solid mathematical education.
In spite of the great advance of the mathematical sciences due to the works of the outstanding mathematicians of the last three centuries, practice clearly reveals their imperfection in many respects; it suggests problems essentially new for science and thus challenges one to seek quite new methods.

 Nuclear Elephant: Justifying Statistical Filtering (and Open Source)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Statistical filtering has now been mainstream for about three years, but despite its technical excellence, most appliance manufacturers are outfitting their boxes with the older style filters and even though the box is technically "new", this old technology is winding up on many networks.
Statistical filtering is a technology developed by the open-source community and copied by the commercial industry, which is quite the stumbling block to companies like Microsoft, who have frequently positioned the open-source community to appear as a group of pirates (aargh!) who carbon-copy technology.
Heuristic filters demand the attention of the systems administrators or monthly subscription for automatic updates (spam detection rules coming from complete strangers); frequent updates must be installed or transmitted to counter the dynamic nature of spam with new rules.

The main results to be covered are: (1) ``Every filter in a countable partial order can be extended to a maximal filter'' is equivalent to $\ACA_0$ over $\RCA_0$, and (2) ``Every directed filter in a countable partial order can be extended to a maximal directed filter'' is equivalent to $\Pi^1_1-\CA_0$ over $\RCA_0$.
A directed filter is a filter which contains a lower bound for each pair of its elements.
A maximal filter is a filter which cannot be extended to a larger filter; a maximal directed filter is defined analogously.)

A filter is a frequency-selective network that favors certain frequencies of input signals at the expense of others.
The design of electronic filters is usually seen as a complex and difficult task, best handled by specialists.
The principles and mathematics at the root of this subject are not trivialised but are explained in such a way that the non-specialist will have little trouble achieving success.

In this symposium, we will consider whether the current emphasis on the importance of mathematics education is well-founded, the important role of mathematics as a “filter” in our educational and economic, and political systems, and the inequitable outcomes of that filter for students of different demographic groups.
Scholars will consider these questions from several different theoretical perspectives, including curriculum theory, educational philosophy, culturally relevant pedagogy, mathematics education, equity in education, and mathematics itself.
The symposium will begin with brief presentations from the speakers, followed by a structured conversation among the speakers and with the audience.
