Outer solution of linear systems whose elements are affine functions of interval parameters (Q1869605)

The author considers a linear algebraic system whose elements are affine functions of a given set of interval parameters. A direct method for finding an interval enclosure of the parametric solution set is proposed. The method is based on a center-radius representation for the intervals and reduces to the solution of two real linear systems: one for the center and one for the radius of the solution enclosure; both systems being of the same size as is the original one.
