*: Sort of. My main interests lies in improving the interval package. The are a couple of listed possible projects, all of which sound interesting. I have have also thought about a different project, implementing Taylor arithmetic in Octave. I think that for the interval package to really shine it needs access to automatic differentiation, which could be done in the form of Taylor arithmetic. I have implemented a proof-of-concept for how this could work [[https://github.com/Urathai/octave-taylor-POC]]. Though I am not sure if it is reasonable to implement a whole new Octave-forge package during GSoC and I am | *: Sort of. My main interests lies in improving the interval package.

*: The project I have looked most at is the one about implementing support for N-dimensional arrays of vectors. I think that this projects is important if we want to make working with intervals as natural as working with floating points in Octave. Below I give a rough possible time line for this. | *: The project I have looked most at is the one about implementing support for N-dimensional arrays of vectors.

*: Implement vectorized functions for N-dimensional arrays of intervals. | |||
*: Start implementing specific functions for N-dimensional arrays (whatever they are) | |||

*: Add examples and usage of N-dimensional intervals to the documentation. Documentation will probably be written in parallel to implementing the new functions, this time is for completing it and adding more usage examples. | |||
