Information matrices for Laplace and Pareto mixtures

The Fisher information matrices for a mixture of two Laplace distributions and for a mixture of two Pareto distributions are derived. Numerical tabulations of the matrices are also provided for practical purposes. The work is motivated by two real-life examples.
