Number of mistakes as a function of the number of false detections (log scale) for the different detection methods. The data corresponds to simulation 2 (see Sect. 6.2.5): a random number of planets equal to 0, 1, or 2 planets per system; white and correlated noise. This simulation has a timescale of 4 days and an amplitude of 1 m s⁻¹. The semi-amplitude to noise level ratio of 1.7. Mistakes are defined as the sum of missed and false detections.
