contents We develop a method for the rigorous estimation of Hausdorff dimensions of limit sets produced by continued fraction iterated function systems. Our method is based on the approximation of a Perron-Frobenius operator using the finite element method with B-splines as the choice of basis functions. This choice provides key numerical advantages including higher-order convergence and computational flexibility. We prove an analogue of Falk and Nussbaum's result on "hidden positivity" for B-spline quasi-interpolants to give rigorous upper and lower bounds for the Hausdorff dimensions of various limit sets. We provide numerical results to verify both the rigor and higher-order convergence of our method for quadratic B-spline interpolants in one and two dimensions.
