  • Broadly, normalization (also spelled normalisation) is any process that makes something more normal, which typically means conforming to some regularity or rule, or returning from some state of abnormality. It has specific meanings in various fields:
• (Wikipedia, 2009) ⇒ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normalization_(database)
  • Database normalization, sometimes referred to as canonical synthesis, is a technique for designing relational database tables to minimize duplication of information and, in so doing, to safeguard the database against certain types of logical or structural problems, namely data anomalies. ...
• (Wikipedia, 2009) ⇒ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normalization_(image_processing)
  • In image processing, normalization is a process that changes the range of pixel intensity values. Applications include photographs with poor contrast due to glare, for example. Normalization is sometimes called contrast stretching. ...
• (Wikipedia, 2009) ⇒ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normalization_(mathematical)
  • The concept of a normalizing constant arises in probability theory and a variety of other areas of mathematics.
• (Wikipedia, 2009) ⇒ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normalization (statistics)
  • In one usage in statistics, normalization is the process of removing statistical error in repeated measured data. A normalization is sometimes based on a property. Quantile normalization, for instance, is normalization based on the magnitude of the measures.
• (Wikipedia, 2009) ⇒ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_microarray#Microarrays_and_bioinformatics
  • In DNA Microarray processing, normalization refers to the calibration of data values in order for a snapshot to be compared to those of others. Examples include: Cross Array Normalization, Linear Normalization
• (WordNet, 2009) ⇒ http://wordnetweb.princeton.edu/perl/webwn?s=normalize
  • S: (v) normalize, normalise (become normal or return to its normal state) "Let us hope that relations with this country will normalize soon"
  • S: (v) normalize, normalise, renormalize, renormalise (make normal or cause to conform to a norm or standard) "normalize relations with China"; "normalize the temperature"; "normalize the spelling"
  • S: (v) anneal, temper, normalize (bring to a desired consistency, texture, or hardness by a process of gradually heating and cooling) "temper glass"
