    Variation and the accuracy of predictions.Michael Kruse - 1997 - British Journal for the Philosophy of Science 48 (2):181-193.
    I present a justification for the intution that more-varied data are more valuable than the same number of less-varied data by showing that the more-varied data help to improve the accuracy of our predictions.

    Beyond bayesianism: Comments on Hellman's "bayes and beyond".Michael Kruse - 1999 - Philosophy of Science 66 (1):165-174.
    Against Hellman's (1997) recent claims, I argue that Bayesianism is unable to explain the value of generally successful aspects of scientific methodology, viz., deflecting blame from well-confirmed theories onto auxiliaries and preferring more-varied data. Such an explanation would require not just objectification of priors, but a reason to believe priors will generally fall on values that justify the practice. Given the track record on the objectification problem, adding further conditions on priors merely makes the Bayesian's problems even worse.

    Invariance, symmetry and rationality.Michael Kruse - 2000 - Synthese 122 (3):337-357.
    Using recent work by Forster and Sober, I identify circumstances in which appeals to symmetries in physical laws are rational with respect to the aim of predictive accuracy. I then consider a Bayesian account of symmetry, and argue that such an account faces serious problems explaining when and why appeals to symmetry would be rational.
