Why would you want, or even try, to compute the integral numerically? 
The paper gives an algorithmic approach for computing the integrals. 
Moreover, the authors of the paper used Mathematica (see comment after 
equation (6.37)) to assist with such computations. I would suggest that 
you contact the authors directly for more information.

Cheers,
Paul
