dc.description.abstract• Fisher information matrix(FIM) is an essential part in the computation of maximum likelihood estimation(MLE) as well as in obtaining their standard errors • Computation of FIM is resource intensive in some widely used models such as mixture distributions • Neerchal and Morel(1993), Raim (2014), and Raim et. al.(2014) have provided approximations to the FIM • In this project, we apply this approximation idea to a mixture of two Poisson distributions • A program in C with MPI is designed to test the performance of our approximation under various selections of parameter valuesen_US
