%IM_NORM Fixed mapping for normalizing images on mean and variance
%
%  B = IM_NORM(A)
%  B = A*IM_NORM
%
% INPUT
%  A       Dataset or datafile
%
% OUTPUT
%  B       Dataset or datafile
%
% DESCRIPTION
% The objects stored as images in the dataset or datafile A are normalised
% w.r.t. their mean (0) and variance (1).
