Feature Scaling

Feature scaling ensures that all numerical variables contribute fairly during training. Without scaling:

  • large-value variables may dominate calculations

  • optimization may become unstable

  • model convergence may slow down Feature scaling improves performance in algorithms such as:

  • K-Nearest Neighbors

  • Support Vector Machines

  • Neural Networks
