Over the past years, the interpretation of measurements in the context of
effective field theories has attracted much attention in the field of particle
physics. We present a tool for interpreting sets of measurements in such models
using a Bayesian ansatz by calculating the posterior probabilities of the
corresponding free parameters numerically. An example is given, in which
top-quark measurements are used to constrain anomalous couplings at the
Wtb-vertex.
