✦ Synopsis


We show how to approximate de Finetti's measure of a partially exchangeable sequence by a mixture of products of Dirichlet measures, explicitly built once the approximation error has been ÿxed. These results are used to give a general method for the elicitation of prior distributions corresponding to partially exchangeable sequences, when prior information essentially derive from available data relative to phenomena similar to that we consider.

A fundamental problem in Fourier transform NMR spectroscopy is the calculation of observed resonance amplitudes for a repetitively pulsed sample, as first analyzed by Ernst and Anderson in 1966. Applications include determination of spin-lattice relaxation times (T 1 's) by progressive saturation an
