Normalization

• Normalization process theory, a sociological theory of the implementation of new technologies or innovations • Normalization model, used in visual neuroscience • Normalization (quantum mechanics) • Normalized solution (mathematics) • Normalization (sociology) or social normalization, the process through which ideas and behaviors that may fall outside of social norms come to be regarded as "normal" ==Mathematics and statistics==

• Normalization of an algebraic variety, the operation consisting in taking locally the integral closure of the ring of regular functions • Normalization (statistics), adjustments of values or distributions in statistics • Quantile normalization, statistical technique for making two distributions identical in statistical properties • Normalizing (abstract rewriting), an abstract rewriting system in which every object has at least one normal form • Normalization property (abstract rewriting), a property of a rewrite system in mathematical logic and theoretical computer science • Normalizing constant, in probability theory a constant to make a non-negative function a probability density function • Noether normalization lemma, the result of commutative algebra • Vector normalization • Normalized number, a number in scientific notation with the decimal point in a consistent position • ==Technology and computer science==

• A metallurgic process used in annealing • Normalization (image processing), changing the range of pixel intensity values • Audio normalization, a process of uniformly increasing or decreasing the amplitude of an audio signal • Data normalization, general reduction of data to canonical form • Normal number, a floating point number that has exactly one bit or digit to the left of the radix point • Database normalization, used in database theory • Dimensional normalization, or snowflaking, removal of redundant attributes in a dimensional model • NFD normalization (normalization form canonical decomposition), a normalization form decomposition for Unicode string searches and comparisons in text processing • Spatial normalization, a step in image processing for neuroimaging • Text normalization, modifying text to make it consistent • URL normalization, process to modify URLs in a consistent manner • Normalization (machine learning), a technique in machine learning to change activation patterns to be on a similar scale. • Normalized frequency (digital signal processing), unit of frequency cycles/sample in digital signal processing ==Other==
