Table 2

Effects present in the light curves used for the tests and successfully modelled (LC: light curve).

Effect	Removal by wavelets
Stellar pulsation	✓
Spot modulation	✓
Ellipsoidal in an eclipsing binary	✓
Reflection effect in an eclipsing binary	✓
Eclipses in an eclipsing binary ^(a)	✓
Beaming effect in an eclipsing binary	✓
Long-term, continuous flux increase/decrease	✓
Discontinuities	✓
Flux-jumps	✓
Outlier removal	✓
Granulation noise on out-of-eclipse part of the LC	✓
Granulation noise in-transit part of the LC	Partly

Notes. ^(a)The ellipsoidal/reflection/beaming effect of an eclipsing binary over the transits and phase curve of a circumbinary planet was removed successfully without removing the same of a transiting planet (which usually have a different period than the eclipsing one).
