/**
 * @brief A layer for data normalization
 * - Input: One and only one input layer is accepted. The input layer must
 *        be DataLayer with dense data type.
 * - Output: The normalization of the input data
 *
 * Reference:
 *    LA Shalabi, Z Shaaban, B Kasasbeh. Data mining: A preprocessing engine
 *
 * Three data normalization methoeds are considered
 * - z-score: y = (x-mean)/std
 * - min-max: y = (x-min)/(max-min)
 * - decimal-scaling: y = x/10^j, where j is the smallest integer such that
 *max(|y|)<1
