is denoising the same as normalizing data

Hi everyone,

Is denoising normalizing the data, and if not what is denoising and what methods do you recommend to normalize. Thank you ahead of time.

Hi @Azospirillum871,

Thanks for reaching out! That is a great question.

I'll direct you to a couple of videos on the QIIME 2 Youtube channel that discuss denoising, which should provide some insight there:

Denoising
PD Mice: Denoising

Hope this helps!

Cheers,
Liz
