normalizer

Brings to standard

A normalizer is something that makes things normal or standard.

In mathematics and signal processing, a normalizer adjusts values to fit within a standard range or scale.

In social contexts, a normalizer is a person or force that makes something seem acceptable or ordinary—often used critically: Social media has become a normalizer of extreme views.

The term appears in technical fields from audio engineering to database management.
