Affine arithmetic

computer arithmetic which wis made tae improve the performance o interval arithmetic

Affine arithmetic (AA) is a computer arithmetic which wis made tae improve the performance o interval arithmetic.

Background

eedit

Today, the interval arithmetic technology which wis made bi Sunaga[1] & R. Moore[2][3][4] is usit i many areas includin validatit numerics[5]. But unfortunately, interval arithmetic is useless whan numerical computation is repeatit many times[4]. Therefore, many experts have studiit hou tae overcome this weakness. Affine arithmetic is ane result o this movement.

Applications

eedit

Affine arithmetic is available i some interval arithmetic libraries like INTLAB[6][7]. It is also usit i the followin fields:

Improvements

eedit

Some experts are tryin tae improve affine arithmetic. Their results are known as the extendit affine arithmetic[28][29][30] or modifiit affine arithmetic[31][32].

Libraries
