What is linearization?

2003-04-04 by danielstaver

It seems like everybody here knows this already, but I need to ask:
What is linearization and how is it done? I'm pretty sure it's
something related to calibration and densitometers, but I've never
read the exact definition of the process. Apparently I will be
borrowing a good densitometer next week, so I think this could be
useful information. I'd be grateful for any clarifying answers. Thanks!
