<title>Feature scaling: standardization vs Normalization</title>
<link>https://ask.ghassem.com/259/feature-scaling-standardization-vs-normalization</link>
<description>Hi,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After learnt feature scaling, I have some questions regarding Normalization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Standardization: rescales data to have a mean of 0 and standard deviation of 1 after a data distribution is selected.(Please correct me if I understood it wrong)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Normalization: rescale data into a range of 0-1.(Please correct me if I understood it wrong)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Questions:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. in what cases we use standardization? when to use normalization? when to use a combined method?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. In class, features are standardized first using N(0,1), then Z score can be standardized to some number between 0-1. How is Z score standardized? (what Z score will be 0 and what Z score will be 1?) if we use different data set, will Z score with same value always reach to same standardized result? Can this standardization formula be stored so we can reproduce the same standardization &amp;nbsp;for prediction purpose?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks a lot for your help.</description>

<title>Is it possible to convert a normalized (L1/L2) number to the original/raw number?</title>
<link>https://ask.ghassem.com/169/possible-convert-normalized-number-the-original-raw-number</link>
<description>&lt;p&gt;Please see example from the following &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36593665/undo-l2-normalization-in-sklearn-python&quot;&gt;link&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The question is leaning towards a programming code solution in Python as the link above shows. Involving sklearn&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;any other Python libraries.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Relative to the link, could there be a manual solution for L1 as well?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Could x include more dimensions for manual solutions? For example:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;([[4,6,9,3], [8,1,2,5]])&lt;/p&gt;</description>
