The Caputo-type time derivative is approximated using the L1 scheme, while spatial derivatives are discretized via the central finite difference (FD) approach, establishing the classical FD schemes. By employing the proper orthogonal decomposition technique, the ROFD schemes are designed to systematically reduce computational complexity. Through rigorous theoretical analysis of the stability and convergence properties of both the FD and ROFD schemes, combined with an extensive series of numerical experiments, we demonstrate that the proposed ROFD schemes significantly decrease computational costs while preserving optimal accuracy, which establishes them as highly efficient tools for solving time-fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs). In particular, the numerical results are in excellent agreement with the theoretical predictions, thereby further substantiating the effectiveness and reliability of the proposed ROFD methods.
