TL;DR
A new cluster validation index is presented which can be used to eliminate the montonically decreasing tendency when the number of clusters becomes very large and close to thenumber of data points.
Abstract
A new cluster validation index is presented which can be used to eliminate the monotonically decreasing tendency when the number of clusters becomes very large and close to the number of data points. The limiting behaviour is described and numerical examples presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed cluster validity index.

The authors present a fuzzy validity criterion based on a validity function which identifies compact and separate fuzzy c-partitions without assumptions as to the number of substructures inherent in the data.

Limitation analysis indicates, and numerical experiments confirm, that the Fukuyama-Sugeno index is sensitive to both high and low values of m and may be unreliable because of this, and calculations suggest that the best choice for m is probably in the interval [1.5, 2.5], whose mean and midpoint, m=2, have often been the preferred choice for many users of FCM.
