Recently, Ohno proposed a method for computing the correlated color temperature (CCT) of a light source and the shortest distance (with sign) between its chromaticity and that of the Planckian locus (D
uv ). In Ohno's method, firstly a lookup table is chosen, and then a hybrid method based on the triangular and parabolic solutions is used to predict the CCT and Duv of a given light source. In this article, we found that spline interpolation is better than the parabolic solution for predicting CCT and Duv . Therefore, we propose two new hybrid methods based on the triangular and either spline interpolation or third-order interpolation using two local function values and two local second-order derivative values. Comprehensive tests using the lookup table with both 1% and 0.25% increments relative to the current selected color temperature demonstrate that the proposed methods outperform Ohno's method.
