Aggregation of Statistical Evidence under Exchangeability

We study aggregation of statistical evidence under unknown and potentially complex dependence using group-invariance. Building on permutation-based constructions that treat transformed datasets as exchangeable units, we aggregate evidence across statistics for each transformed dataset and calibrate the resulting aggregates across transformations. We develop a finite-sample power and adaptivity theory for this framework, together with extensions to sequential and data-dependent aggregation that…
