In addition to the well-known and widely-used adaptive strategies for region subdivision and the choice of local quadrature rules, there still exists a third possibility for doing numerical integration adaptively, when interval computation is considered. Based on the Peano's kernels theorem and interval arithmetic, we are able to estimate the truncation error of a quadrature rule by means of different derivatives of the integrand, where the available orders of the derivatives depend on the degree of smoothness of the integrand and the exactness degree of the underlying quadrature rule. We classify the methods as the adaptive orders strategies, if they make use of the derivatives of different orders to improve each single local error estimation. In this paper, alternatives for adaptive error estimation are discussed. Moreover, a practical way for realization of the optimal error estimation is suggested. Numerical results for integrands of different classes as well as numerical comparisons of different methods are given.
