normalizes
Brings to baseline
Normalizes means makes normal or standard.
Data that normalizes is adjusted to a common scale for comparison.
A society normalizes behaviors by making them seem routine or acceptable: Social media has normalized oversharing.
In technical contexts, normalizing can mean adjusting values to fit within a defined range.
The word often carries criticism when applied to troubling trends: We shouldn't normalize political violence.
