normalization
When people start treating something unusual or questionable as normal.
The process by which something unusual, controversial, or previously unacceptable comes to be regarded as normal, ordinary, or acceptable.
The process of becoming normal again after a problem or unusual period.
The process of returning a situation, system, level, or bodily function to its usual, stable, or healthy state.
Making things use the same form, style, or rules.
The process of changing information, language, procedures, or formats so that they follow a shared standard or consistent pattern.
Changing numbers to a common scale so they are easier to compare or process.
In statistics, computing, and data science, the transformation of numerical data to a common scale, distribution, or range so values can be compared or used effectively.
Organizing a database so the same information is not stored unnecessarily in many places.
In database design, the process of organizing tables and relationships into normal forms to reduce duplicated data and improve data integrity.
Changing the volume level of audio so it reaches a chosen standard level.
In audio production, the process of adjusting a recording's level to reach a target peak or loudness without changing the overall balance of the mix.
- Base: normalization
- Plural: normalization, normalizations
batch normalization
1Stabilizing neural network training
A method that helps a neural network train more smoothly by normalizing groups of values.
- Adding batch normalization improved the stability of the neural network.
- The model uses batch normalization after each convolutional layer.
- In some architectures, batch normalization is replaced by layer normalization.
- Batch normalization helped the model train faster.
normalization constant
1Factor making totals equal one
A number used to make a formula add up, integrate, or scale to a required value.
- The probability distribution includes a normalization constant so the total probability is one.
- In quantum mechanics, the normalization constant ensures that the wavefunction has unit probability.
- The missing normalization constant made the formula impossible to compare with the data.
- The normalization constant makes the probabilities add up to one.
normalization of deviance
1Accepting unsafe exceptions
When people get used to breaking rules or taking risks because nothing bad has happened yet.
- After several successful shortcuts, the team fell into the normalization of deviance.
- Investigators cited normalization of deviance as a factor in the accident.
- The manager tried to stop the normalization of deviance before unsafe habits became routine.
- The factory wanted to avoid normalization of deviance.
- Small rule breaks can lead to normalization of deviance.
normalization of relations
1Restoring official relations
When countries or groups start having normal official relations again.
- The agreement opened the door to normalization of relations between the two countries.
- Talks on normalization of relations resumed after years of hostility.
- Businesses welcomed the normalization of relations with neighboring markets.
- The two countries discussed normalization of relations.
- Normalization of relations may allow more trade.
unicode normalization
1Standardizing Unicode text
Making computer text use one consistent Unicode representation.
- Unicode normalization fixed the search problem with accented names.
- The application applies Unicode normalization before comparing strings.
- NFC is a common Unicode normalization form for stored text.
- Unicode normalization helps the program compare names.
- The developer used Unicode normalization on the text.
