The Normal-Inverse Gaussian distribution arises as a Normal variance-mean mixture with an Inverse Gaussian mixing distribution. This article deals with Maximum Likelihood estimation of the parameters of the Normal-Inverse Gaussian distribution. Due to the complexity of the likelihood, direct maximiz
