Abstract
One of the methods that in recent years has attracted the attention of many researchers for modeling multivariate mixed outcome data is using the copula function. In this paper a regression model for mixed survival and discrete outcome data based on copula function is proposed. Where the continuous variable was time and could has censored observations. For this task it is assumed that marginal distributions are known and a latent variable was used to transform discrete variable to continuous. Then by using a copula function, the joint distribution of two variables was constructed and finally the obtained model was used to model birth interval data in Ahwaz city in south-west of Iran.

Abstract
This paper will analyze inflated bivariate mixed count data. The estimations of model parameters are obtained by the maximum likelihood method. For a bivariate case which has inflation in one or two points, the new bivariate inflated power series distributions are presented. These inflated distributions are used in joint modeling of bivariate count responses. Also, to illustrate the utility of the proposed models, some simulation studies are performed. and finally, a real dataset is analyzed.

Abstract
One of the most frequently encountered longitudinal studies issues is data with losing the appointments or getting censoring. In such cases, all of the subjects do not have the same set of observation times. The missingness in the analysis of longitudinal discrete and continuous mixed data is also common, and missing may occur in one or both responses. Failure to pay attention to the cause of the missing (the mechanism of the missingness) leads to unbiased estimates and inferences. Therefore, in this paper, we investigate the mechanism of nonignorable missing in set-inflated continuous and zero-inflation power series, as well as the continuous and k-inflated ordinal mixed responses. A full likelihood-based approach is used to obtain the maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters of the models. In order to assess the performance of the models, some simulation studies are performed. Two applications of our models are illustrated for the American's Changing Lives survey, and the Peabody Individual Achievement Test data set.
