NORMALIZATION , SCALING AND

STANDARDIZATION

Hello guys and welcome to another document here u will learn about
Normalization and Scaling , as you already know data means a lot to
us for building a meaningful machine learning model . you all would
probably think ​why to normalize​ the data I will explain that to you .

​ or example​, consider a data set containing two features,


F
age(x1), and income(x2). Where age ranges from 0–100, while
income ranges from 0–20,000 and higher. Income is about
1,000 times larger than age and ranges from 20,000–500,000.
So, these two features are in very different ranges. When we do
further analysis, like multivariate linear regression, for
example, the attributed income will intrinsically influence the
result more due to its larger value. But this doesn’t necessarily
mean it is more important as a predictor.

So this is the only reason we have to normalize and scale the data to
bring all the numeric values in the dataset to comparable range .
