About Norbert Wiener

  • Norbert Wiener (November 26, 1894 – March 18, 1964) was an American mathematician and philosopher.
  • He was a professor of mathematics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
  • A child prodigy, Wiener later became an early researcher in stochastic and mathematical noise processes, contributing work relevant to electronic engineering, electronic communication, and control systems. Wiener is considered the originator of cybernetics, a formalization of the notion of feedback, with implications for engineering, systems control, computer science, biology, neuroscience, philosophy, and the organization of society. Norbert Wiener is credited as being one of the first to theorize that all intelligent behavior was the result of feedback mechanisms, that could possibly be simulated by machines and was an important early step towards the development of modern artificial intelligence.
