Parameter extraction from Bayesian posterior probability distribution. The solid black histogram displays a Bayesian posterior probability density distribution for the parameter of the combined analysis of three light curves of WASP-10b (Section 3.1). The solid vertical line marks the median (50.0 percentile), while the dashed vertical lines represent the inferred statistics described in Section 2. The additional histograms represent the posterior distributions for independent analyses of each curve (V: dashed green, R: dash-dotted red, I: dotted gray).
