An introduction to interval analysis for scientists and engineers interested in scientific computation, especially using INTLAB/MATLAB®.
The usual "implementation” of real numbers as floating point numbers on existing computers has the well-known disadvantage that most of the real numbers are not exactly representable in floating point. Also the four basic arithmetic operations can usually not be performed exactly. During the last years research in different areas has been intensified in order to overcome these problems. (LEDA-Library by K. Mehlhorn et al., "Exact arithmetic with real numbers” by A. Edalat et al., Symbolic algebraic methods, verification methods). The latest development is the combination of symbolic-algebraic methods and verification methods to so-called hybrid methods. – This book contains a collection of worked out talks on these subjects given during a Dagstuhl seminar at the Forschungszentrum für Informatik, Schlo€ Dagstuhl, Germany, presenting the state of the art.
This book investigates some of the difficulties related to scientific computing, describing how these can be overcome.
A comprehensive guide to the theory, intuition, and application of numerical methods in linear algebra, analysis, and differential equations. With extensive commentary and code for three essential scientific computing languages: Julia, Python, and Matlab.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Dagstuhl Seminar 08021 on Numerical Validation in Current Hardware Architectures held at Dagstuhl Castle, Germany, in January 2008. The 16 revised full papers presented were selected during two rounds of reviewing and improvements. The papers are organized in topical sections on languages, software systems and tools, new verification techniques based on interval arithmetic, applications in science and engineering, and novel approaches to verification.
This book gathers threads that have evolved across different mathematical disciplines into seamless narrative. It deals with condition as a main aspect in the understanding of the performance ---regarding both stability and complexity--- of numerical algorithms. While the role of condition was shaped in the last half-century, so far there has not been a monograph treating this subject in a uniform and systematic way. The book puts special emphasis on the probabilistic analysis of numerical algorithms via the analysis of the corresponding condition. The exposition's level increases along the book, starting in the context of linear algebra at an undergraduate level and reaching in its third part the recent developments and partial solutions for Smale's 17th problem which can be explained within a graduate course. Its middle part contains a condition-based course on linear programming that fills a gap between the current elementary expositions of the subject based on the simplex method and those focusing on convex programming.
Accuracy and Stability of Numerical Algorithms gives a thorough, up-to-date treatment of the behavior of numerical algorithms in finite precision arithmetic. It combines algorithmic derivations, perturbation theory, and rounding error analysis, all enlivened by historical perspective and informative quotations. This second edition expands and updates the coverage of the first edition (1996) and includes numerous improvements to the original material. Two new chapters treat symmetric indefinite systems and skew-symmetric systems, and nonlinear systems and Newton's method. Twelve new sections include coverage of additional error bounds for Gaussian elimination, rank revealing LU factorizations, weighted and constrained least squares problems, and the fused multiply-add operation found on some modern computer architectures.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Mathematical Aspects of Computer and Information Sciences, MACIS 2019, held in Gebze, Turkey, in November 2019. The 22 revised papers and 14 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 66 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: algorithms and foundation; security and cryptography; combinatorics, codes, designs and graphs; data modeling and machine learning; tools and software track.
This work grew out of several years of research, graduate seminars and talks on the subject. It was motivated by a desire to make the technology accessible to those who most needed it or could most use it. It is meant to be a self-contained introduction, a reference for the techniques, and a guide to the literature for the underlying theory. It contains pointers to fertile areas for future research. It also serves as introductory documentation for a Fortran 90 software package for nonlinear systems and global optimization. The subject of the monograph is deterministic, automatically verified or r- orous methods. In such methods, directed rounding and computational fix- point theory are combined with exhaustive search (branch and bound) te- niques. Completion of such an algorithm with a list of solutions constitutes a rigorous mathematical proof that all of the solutions within the original search region are within the output list. The monograph is appropriate as an introduction to research and technology in the area, as a desk reference, or as a graduate-level course reference. Kno- edge of calculus, linear algebra, and elementary numerical analysis is assumed.
