摘要
We introduce the concept of a product disintegration, which generalizes exchangeability by allowing one to render conditional independence in terms of a suitable hidden sequence of random probabilities. We prove that, given a sequence of random elements in a compact metric space, a strong law of large numbers (SLLN) holds for observables of this process if and only if the process admits a product disintegration that itself satisfies a type of SLLN. As an application, we provide a characterization of the SLLN for identically distributed (not necessarily independent) Bernoulli sequences.
