Normalization

 What is Normalization?

Normalization is a scaling technique in which values are shifted and rescaled so that they end up ranging between 0 and 1. It is also known as Min-Max scaling.


Here’s the formula for normalization:


Here, Xmax and Xmin are the maximum and the minimum values of the feature respectively.

When the value of X is the minimum value in the column, the numerator will be 0, and hence X’ is 0.


On the other hand, when the value of X is the maximum value in the column, the numerator is equal to the denominator and thus the value of X’ is 1

If the value of X is between the minimum and the maximum value, then the value of X’ is between 0 and 1

Batch and Online Learning

  It is the criterion used to classify Machine Learning systems is whether or not the system can learn incrementally from a stream of incoming data. Batch learning In batch learning , the system is incapable of learning incrementally: it must be trained using all the available data. This will generally take a lot of time and computing resources, so it is typically done offline. First the system is trained, and then it is launched into production and runs without learning anymore; it just applies what it has learned. This is called offline learning . If you want a batch learning system to know about new data (such as a new type of spam), you need to train a new version of the system from scratch on the full dataset (not just the new data, but also the old data), then stop the old system and replace it with the new one. Fortunately, the whole process of training, evaluating, and launching a Machine Learning system can be automated fairly easily (as shown in Figure 1-3 ), so even a batch
