• Normalizing constant
  Normalizing constant
  
  The concept of a normalizing constant arises in probability theory and a variety of other areas of mathematics....
  , perhaps most often in probability theory
  Probability theory
  
  Probability theory is the branch of mathematics concerned with analysis of Statistical randomness phenomena. The central objects of probability theory are random variables, stochastic processes, and event s: mathematical abstractions of determinism events or measured quantities that may either be single occurrences or evolve over time in an a...
  
• Normalization of statistics
  Normalization (statistics)
  
  In one usage in statistics, normalization is the process of removing errors and residuals in statistics in repeated measured data. A normalization is sometimes based on a property....

• Normalization of a function (in general calculus) is the process of removing a discontinuity
  Removable singularity
  
  In complex analysis, a removable singularity of a holomorphic function is a point at which the function is ostensibly undefined, but, upon closer examination, the domain of the function can be enlarged to include the mathematical singularity ....

• Normalization property
  Normalization property (lambda-calculus)
  
  In mathematical logic and theoretical computer science, a rewrite system has the strong normalization property if every term is strongly normalizing; that is, if every sequence of rewrites eventually terminates to a term in Normal form ....

  Rewriting
  
  In mathematics, computer science and logic, rewriting covers a wide range of potentially Deterministic computation methods of replacing subterms of a formula with other terms....

• Social Normalization
  Normalization (sociology)
  
  Normalization is a process whereby behaviours and ideas are made to seem "normality " through repetition, or through ideology, propaganda, etc., often to the point where they appear natural and taken for granted....
  , the process through which ideas and actions are made to appear culturally "normal."
• Normalization model
  Normalization model
  
  The normalization model is an influential model of responses of neurons in primary visual cortex. David Heeger developed the model in the early 1990s, and later refined it together with Matteo Carandini and J Anthony Movshon....

  Visual neuroscience
  
  Visual neuroscience is the study of the visual system including the visual cortex. Its goals are to understand the neurophysiology of the visual system, and to understand how neural activity results in visual perception and behaviors that depend on vision....
  
• Normalization of a wavefunction
  Normalisable wavefunction
  
  In quantum mechanics, wave functions which describe real Elementary particles must be normalisable: the probability theory of the particle to occupy any place must equal 1....

• Normalization (economics), which pertains when only relative price
  Relative price
  
  Relative price is the price of a commodity such as a Good or Service in terms of another; ie, the ratio of two prices. A relative price may be expressed in terms of a ratio between any two prices or the ratio between the price of one particular good and a weighted average of all other goods available in the market....

• Database normalization
  Database normalization
  
  In the field of relational database design, normalization is a systematic way of ensuring that a database structure is suitable for general-purpose querying and free of certain undesirable characteristics?insertion, update, and deletion anomalies?that could lead to a loss of data integrity....

  Database
  
  A database is a structured collection of records or data that is stored in a computer system. The structure is achieved by organizing the data according to a database model....

  Denormalization
  
  Denormalization is the process of attempting to optimize the performance of a database by adding redundant data or by grouping data. In some cases, denormalization helps cover up the inefficiencies inherent in relational model DBMS....

  In , normalization is a process that changes the range of pixel intensity values. Applications include photographs with poor contrast due to glare, for example....
  
• Text normalization
  Text normalization
  
  Text normalization is a process by which writing is transformed in some way to make it consistent in a way which it might not have been before. Text normalization is often performed before text is processed in some way, such as generating speech synthesis, automated language translation, storage in a database, or comparison....
