The estimation algorithm for the Variance Gamma distribution proposed in http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167715211003257 is based on the observation that the VG density is approximated by a finite mixture of Normals. The weights are derived using the roots of the Laguerre polynomials.
