integer
and is the primary key for this table.
Its initial value is zero, and it increments by one for each row.
The bnd_mulcov_id
column is also a foreign key for the
mulcov_table
; i.e.,
mulcov_id = bnd_mulcov_id
In addition, the size of both tables is the same.
real
and contains the maximum absolute difference
of the covariate minus its reference (for this covariate multiplier).
rate_value
,
integrand_id
for this multiplier is null
and the maximum is respect to all integrands.
mulcov_type
for this multiplier is not rate_value
,
integrand_id
for this multiplier is not null
and the maximum is further restricted the that integrand.
real
, is non-negative.
The value
max_mulcov
is a maximum for the
upper limit for the corresponding covariate multiplier during optimization.
The value
- max_mulcov
is a minimum for the
lower limit for the corresponding covariate multiplier during optimization.
This maximum and minimum are in addition to the priors for the multiplier.
If
max_mulcov
is null,
it is interpreted as plus infinity and has no effect.
Also, in the special case where the prior upper and lower limits are equal,
this maximum and minimum are ignored (have no effect).
