We show that under this topology, a convergent sequence of probability measures satisfying a conditional independence property converges to a measure that also satisfies the same conditional independence property. This also corrects the proof of a claim in Hellwig (1996, Lemma 4). Additionally, we determine sufficient conditions on the Polish spaces and the topology over measures spaces under which a convergent sequence of probability measures is also convergent in the topology of information.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-02-25T22:20:54.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "probability measures", "polish spaces", "information", "conditional independence property converges", "convergent sequence" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 30, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1402.6364B" } } }
