We develop a framework for the operationalization of models and parameters by combining de Finetti's representation theorem with a conditional form of Sanov's theorem. This synthesis, the tilted de Finetti theorem, shows that conditioning…

Consider a measure $\mu$ on $\R^n$ generating a natural exponential family $F(\mu)$ with variance function $V_{F(\mu)}(m)$ and Laplace transform $$ \exp(\ell_{\mu}(s))=\int_{\R^n} \exp(-\<s,x\>)\mu(dx).$$ A dual measure $\mu^*$ satisfies…
