Addition Description
When creating a FeatureTable[Frequency] by mapping reads to reference genes, the resulting data is total amount of reads that mapped to a gene. With this data it is impossible to make comparisons inside a sample, because of different gene lengths and it is also impossible to make comparisons between samples because of different total amount of reads per sample. To solve this issue I propose a new type called FeatureTable[Normalized] that will be the output of a new action that can normalize FeatureTable[Frequency] artifacts. There will be properties that indicate the specific normalization method that was used.
