When working with bounded datasets (those with inherent limits, such as percentages (0–100) or probabilities (0–1)), it’s important to choose the appropriate scaling method.
Techniques like Min-Max Scaling and Range Adjustment are well-suited for these cases, as they naturally adapt data to the desired bounds. This ensures consistency and interpretability while avoiding values exceeding the data's logical limits.
