A bivariate version of the hyper-Poisson distribution and some of its properties

A bivariate version of the hyper-Poisson distribution is introduced here through its probability generating function (pgf). we study some of its important aspects by deriving its probability mass function, factorial moments, marginal and conditional distributions and obtain certain recurrence relations for its probabilities, raw moments and factorial moments. Further, the method of maximum likelihood is discussed and the procedures are illustrated using a real life data set.
