I suggest Box-Cox Transformation. The Box-Cox transformation is a power transformation that can handle data with both positive and zero values. It allows you to find the optimal power parameter lambda (λ) that transforms the data to achieve a more symmetric distribution. The Box-Cox transformation is commonly used for normalizing skewed data.
