function [X_norm, mu, sigma] = featureNormalize(X) %FEATURENORMALIZE Normalizes the features in X % FEATURENORMALIZE(X) returns a normalized version of X where % the mean value of each feature is 0 and the standard deviation % is 1. This is often a good preprocessing step to do when % working with learning algorithms. % You need to set these values correctly X_norm = X; mu = zeros(1, size(X, 2)); sigma = zeros(1, size(X, 2)); % ====================== YOUR CODE HERE ====================== % Instructions: First, for each feature dimension, compute the mean % of the feature and subtract it from the dataset, % storing the mean value in mu. Next, compute the % standard deviation of each feature and divide % each feature by it's standard deviation, storing % the standard deviation in sigma. % % Note that X is a matrix where each column is a % feature and each row is an example. You need % to perform the normalization separately for % each feature. % % Hint: You might find the 'mean' and 'std' functions useful. % % For matrices, mean computes column means of its input. mu = mean(X); % For matrices, std computes columnwise std deviations of its input. sigma = std(X); % Octave version >= 3.6 mu broadcasts for - and sigma broadcasts for ./. X_norm = (X - mu) ./ sigma; % ============================================================ end
