Chapter 9: Finite de Finetti style theorems for linear models

Abstract

The implications of invariance assumptions for linear models are investigated here via a finite de Finetti style theorem. Before discussing linear models, we describe a general method for approximating projected measures. Of course, the origins of the method are in the four examples described in Chapter 8. All of the material in this chapter is from Diaconis, Eaton and Lauritzen (1987).
