In this paper, we propose an inexact Newton-type method for solving the AVE. In each iteration, the proposed method solves the corresponding system only approximately. Moreover, it adopts a new line search technique, which is well-defined and easy to implement. We prove that the proposed method has global and local superlinear convergence under the condition that the interval matrix [<i>A</i> − <i>I</i>, <i>A</i> + <i>I</i>] is regular.
