Is “standardized” a common terminology to refer to normalization by the standard deviation?
$begingroup$
I'm working with multiple time series. And to compare their variations regardless of their amplitude I'm dividing each one by their standard deviation. Is there a name for this particular type of normalization?
It is common to refer to data normalized in that way as "standardized"?
