This unique book provides an introduction to a subject whose use has steadily increased over the past 40 years. An update of Ramon Mooreprevious books on the topic, it provides broad coverage of the subject as well as the historical perspective of one of the originators of modern interval analysis. The authors provide a hands-on introduction to INTLAB, a high-quality, comprehensive MATLAB toolbox for interval computations, making this the first interval analysis book that does with INTLAB what general numerical analysis texts do with MATLAB.
Readers will find the following features of t: elementary motivating examples and notes that help maximize the readerchance of success in applying the techniques exercises and hands-on MATLAB-based examples woven into the text INTLAB-based examples and explanations integrated into the text, along with a comprehensive set of exercises and solutions, and an appendix with INTLAB commands an extensive bibliography and appendices that will continue to be valuable resources once the reader is familiar with the subject and a Web page with links to computational tools and other resources of t.
Audience: Introduction to Interval Analysis will be valuable to engineers and scientists ted in scientific computation, especially in reliability, effects of roundoff error, and automatic verification of results. The introductory material is particularly important for experts in global optimization and constraint solution algorithms. This book is suitable for introducing the subject to students in these areas.
