In high dimensions, the classical Hotelling's $T^2$ test tends to have low power or becomes undefined due to singularity of the sample covariance matrix. In this paper, this problem is overcome by projecting the data matrix onto lower…

We propose a two-sample test for the means of high-dimensional data when the data dimension is much larger than the sample size. Hotelling's classical $T^2$ test does not work for this "large $p$, small $n$" situation. The proposed test…
