Eigen has an unsupported spline module where you can fit a spline given some data. Once a spline is fitted you can use it as a function to obtain points inbetween. The following example fits 1D data but can be modified to fit N-dimensional data.

Usage

 git clone https://gist.github.com/chutsu/815c7c916c329eec85f34690a012f7cb spline_example
 g++ -I/usr/include/eigen3 spline_example.cpp -o spline_example

./spline_example

The following code snippet showcases how one would use Eigen's spline module to fit x^2 and find the first and second derivatives along the spline.

An important note is to remember to scale the derivatives with:

(x - x_min) / (x_max - x_min) (first derivative)
(x - x_min) / (x_max - x_min)^2 (second derivative).

Because when fitting a spline to x^2, the x values you feed into the spline fitter is actually normalized with (x - x_min) / (x_max - x_min). So using
