Normalization

Normalization or normalisation refers to a process that makes something more normal or regular.

Science

• Normalization process theory, a sociological theory of the implementation of new technologies or innovations
• Normalization model, used in visual neuroscience
• Normalization in quantum mechanics, see Template:Slink and normalized solution
• 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
