On the ‘most normal’ normal

Communications in Numerical Methods in Engineering, 2007
AbstractGiven a set of normals in ℛ3, two algorithms are presented to compute the ‘most normal’ normal. The ‘most normal’ normal is the normal that minimizes the maximal angle with the given set of normals. A direct application is provided supposing a surface triangulation is available.

To normalize or not to normalize? Fat is the question

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, 1995
Abstract Concentrations of lipophilic contaminants in biota are frequently corrected for variation in tissue lipid content. Usually, this correction is accomplished by dividing tissue contaminant concentration by lipid concentration to form lipid-normalized data.

Amblyopia: The Normal Eye is Not Normal

Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, 1990
ABSTRACT When acuity was used to evaluate amblyopia in children, the amblyopic eye had decreased acuity and the nonamblyopic eye had normal acuity. However when Contrast Sensitivity Functions (CSFs) were used to evaluate amblyopia, losses in the CSF were discovered in both the amblyopic and the nonamblyopic eyes.

KEEPING NORMAL LABOR NORMAL

Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2000
Labor and delivery have been viewed by physicians as processes that can and must be managed by physicians for their pregnant patients. This article asserts that most births do not need to be interventionally managed and that a birth attendant's highest order skill is knowing when and how not to intervene.

Finite Groups with Normal Normalizers

Canadian Journal of Mathematics, 1968
We say that a finite group G has property N if the normalizer of every subgroup of G is normal in G. Such groups are nilpotent since every Sylow subgroup is normal (the normalizer of a Sylow subgroup is its own normalizer). Thus it is sufficient to study p-groups which have property N. Note that property N is inherited by subgroups and factor groups.

Normal backwardation is normal

Journal of Futures Markets, 2000
Traditionally, constant expected return asset pricing models are used to assess the presence of a futures risk premium and the validity of the normal backwardation theory. In the light of recent evidence regarding the presence of time variation in expected futures returns, such an approach may lead to incorrect inferences on the applicability of the ...

On the Normalized Cut

Fundamenta Informaticae, 2008
In the recent paper by Soundararajan and Sarkar (2003), the normalized cut, a graph partitioning measure for perceptual organization, was shown to be a sum of two beta distributed random variables and expressions derived for its mean and mode. Here, it is pointed out that the given expression for the mode is incorrect. The correct expression is derived
