An optimal filter of the second order

We present a new technique allowing us to find an optimal filter in the class of so-called second-order filters. The new filter is generated by a best-approximation operator of the second degree and generalizes and improves an optimal linear filter associated with the concept of Wiener filtering. This article provides a strict justification of the technique proposed, demonstrates its advantages, and describes numerous useful extensions and applications.
