What is the expected value of modified Dirichlet distribution? (integration problem) It is easy to produce a random variable with Dirichlet distribution using Gamma variables with the same scale parameter. If:
$ X_i \sim \text{Gamma}(\alpha_i, \beta) $ 
Then:
$ \left(\frac{X_1}{\sum_j X_j},\; \ldots\; , \frac{X_n}{\sum_j X_j}\right) \sim \text{Dirichlet}(\alpha_1,\;\ldots\;,\alpha_n) $
Problem
What happens if the scale parameters are not equal?
$ X_i \sim \text{Gamma}(\alpha_i, \beta_i) $ 
Then what is the distribution this variable?
$ \left(\frac{X_1}{\sum_j X_j},\; \ldots\; , \frac{X_n}{\sum_j X_j}\right) \sim \; ? $
For me it would be sufficient to know the expected value of this distribution.
I need a approximate closed algebraic formula that can be evaluated very very quickly by a computer.
Let's say approximation with accurancy of 0.01 is sufficient.
You can assume that:  
$ \alpha_i, \beta_i \in \mathbb{N} $
Note In short, the task is to find an approximation of this integral: 
$ f(\vec{\alpha}, \vec{\beta}) = \int_{\mathbb{R}^n_+} \;\frac{x_1}{\sum_j x_j} \cdot \prod_j \frac{\beta_j^{\alpha_j}}{\Gamma(\alpha_j)} x_j^{\alpha_j - 1} e^{-\beta_j x_j} \;\;  dx_1\ldots dx_n$
 A: Just an initial remark, if you want computational speed you usually have to sacrifice accuracy.  "More accuracy" = "More time" in general.  Anyways here is a second order approximation, should improve on the "crude" approx you suggested in your comment above:
$$E\Bigg(\frac{X_{j}}{\sum_{i}X_{i}}\Bigg)\approx
\frac{E[X_{j}]}{E[\sum_{i}X_{i}]} 
-\frac{cov[\sum_{i}X_{i},X_{j}]}{E[\sum_{i}X_{i}]^2}
+\frac{E[X_{j}]}{E[\sum_{i}X_{i}]^3} Var[\sum_{i}X_{i}]
$$
$$= \frac{\alpha_{j}}{\sum_{i} \frac{\beta_{j}}{\beta_{i}}\alpha_{i}}\times\Bigg[1 - \frac{1}{\Bigg(\sum_{i} \frac{\beta_{j}}{\beta_{i}}\alpha_{i}\Bigg)}
+ \frac{1}{\Bigg(\sum_{i} \frac{\alpha_{i}}{\beta_{i}}\Bigg)^2}\Bigg(\sum_{i} \frac{\alpha_{i}}{\beta_{i}^2}\Bigg)\Bigg]

$$
EDIT An explanation for the above expansion was requested.  The short answer is wikipedia.  The long answer is given below.
write $f(x,y)=\frac{x}{y}$.  Now we need all the "second order" derivatives of $f$.  The first order derivatives will "cancel" because they will all involve multiples $X-E(X)$ and $Y-E(Y)$ which are both zero when taking expectations.
$$\frac{\partial^2 f}{\partial x^2}=0$$
$$\frac{\partial^2 f}{\partial x \partial y}=-\frac{1}{y^2}$$
$$\frac{\partial^2 f}{\partial y^2}=2\frac{x}{y^3}$$
And so the taylor series up to second order is given by:
$$\frac{x}{y} \approx \frac{\mu_x}{\mu_y}+\frac{1}{2}\Bigg(-\frac{1}{\mu_y^2}2(x-\mu_x)(y-\mu_y) + 2\frac{\mu_x}{\mu_y^3}(y-\mu_y)^2 \Bigg)$$
Taking expectations yields:
$$E\Big[\frac{x}{y}\Big] \approx \frac{\mu_x}{\mu_y}-\frac{1}{\mu_y^2}E\Big[(x-\mu_x)(y-\mu_y)\Big] + \frac{\mu_x}{\mu_y^3}E\Big[(y-\mu_y)^2\Big]$$
Which is the answer I gave.  (although I initially forgot the minus sign in the second term)
