The advancement in technology has necessitated the collection of massive high-dimensional
data in bioinformatics, medical sciences, business, climatology, and magnetic resonance images. These collec-
tions have given rise to high-dimensional (p) and small sample(n) (HDSS) problems in group classifications.
The classification coefficient of the HDSS data cannot be constructed due to the ill-conditioning or singu-
larity of the covariance matrix. The curse of dimensionality suffered by the classical methods has rendered
the formulation of the coefficient impossible as such different dimensionality reduction methods have been
proposed to avert the curse of dimensionality and ill conditioning. Dimensionality reduction methods such
as the principal component analysis have been applied as a prelude to reducing the dimension of the HDSS
data to enhance constructing the coefficients of any classification methods. Some of these dimension reduc-
tion methods with infused constants as a benchmark selection, may increase or decrease computational time
and improve classification accuracy at the cost of information loss. In this paper, we proposed two methods
that can solve the ill-conditioning and singularity, or dimensionality problems associated to HDSS data di-
rectly. These methods are diagonal FLCM (DFLCM) and point extraction method (PEM). We investigated
the robustness of these methods based on the optimal probability benchmark (OPB). The computational
time (CPU time) of all the methods is also investigated. We applied three real data sets to determine the
comparative performance, and the classification results revealed that the proposed DFLCM is very robust
more than the NaГЇve Bayes classifier in terms of the probability of correct classification and CPU time.
Therefore, this study affirmed that the OPB is suitable to determine the robustness of HDSS classification
problems.
