Title
Optimal Enclosure of Quadratic Interval Functions
Abstract
In this paper, we analyze the problem of the optimal (narrowest) approximation (enclosure) of a quadratic interval function <img src="/fulltext-image.asp?format=htmlnonpaginated&src=T1R460Q305K4M6R0_html\11155_2004_Article_187350_TeX2GIFIE1.gif" border="0" alt=" $$y(x_1 ,...,x_n ) = [y(x_1 ,...,x_n ) \bar y(x_1 ,...x_n )]$$ " /> (i.e., an interval function for which both endpoint functions <img src="/fulltext-image.asp?format=htmlnonpaginated&src=T1R460Q305K4M6R0_html\11155_2004_Article_187350_TeX2GIFIE2.gif" border="0" alt=" $$\underset{\raise0.3em\hbox{$\smash{\scriptscriptstyle-}$}}{y} (x_1 ,...,x_n ) {\text{and}} \bar y(x_1 ,...x_n )$$ " />, ..., xn) are quadratic) by a linear interval function. show that in general, this problem is computationally intractable (NP-hard). For a practically important 1D case (n = 1), we present an efficient algorithm.
