Computing Enclosures of Overdetermined Interval Linear Systems

This work considers special types of interval linear systems- overde-termined systems. Simply said these systems have more equations than variables. The solution set of an interval linear system is a collection of all solutions of all instances of an interval system. By the instance we mean a point real system that emerges when we independently choose a real number from each interval coefficient of the interval system. Enclosing the solution set of these systems is in some ways more difficult than for square systems. The main goal of this work is to present various met-hods for solving overdetermined interval linear systems. We would like to present them in an understandable way even for nonspecialists in a field of linear systems. The second goal is a numerical comparison of all the methods on random interval linear systems regarding widths of enclosures, computation times and other special properties of methods
