Interpolation is a process to estimate unknown values between known data points. It can be used in computer graphics, digital imaging, and CAD. In computer science, interpolation helps approximate solutions to iterative methods, reducing computation time. It is also used to smooth experimental data by fitting trend lines in Excel. Secret sharing schemes use interpolation to distribute secrets among participants, where only some can reconstruct the secret using their shares. Lagrange interpolation is one method used in secret sharing.
