“The two most discussed scaling methods are Normalization and Standardization. Normalization typically means rescales the values into a range of [0,1]. Standardization typically means rescales data to have a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1 (unit variance)”

Your explanation is wrong here. you are explaining the same thing under two different names. You standardize through normalization. A standard normal distribution property is that it has mean 0 and variance 1.

I think your article should state “ two most discussed scaling methods are : Normalization and Min Max scaling”
