Normalising the Coefficient

Definition: Normalising the coefficient refers to the process of scaling or standardizing a coefficient in order to make comparisons or interpretations easier. It involves dividing the coefficient by a suitable scaling factor to bring it within a specific range.

Senses and Usages

Sense 1: Statistical Analysis

Part of Speech: Noun

Definition: In statistical analysis, normalising the coefficient involves transforming the coefficient of a variable to a standard scale, generally between 0 and 1, to make it comparable with other variables.

Examples:

1. The researcher normalised the coefficient values of the variables to facilitate meaningful comparisons.
2. Normalising the coefficient eliminates the influence of different measurement scales.

Sense 2: Mathematics

Part of Speech: Verb

Definition: In mathematics, normalising the coefficient entails adjusting the coefficient of a term or equation to satisfy a specific condition, such as having a unit magnitude.

Examples:

1. The mathematician spent hours normalising the coefficients of the polynomial equation.
2. Normalising the coefficients allowed for easier calculations in the mathematical model.
