Caption: Figure 6.

p-value from the two-sample K-S test is plotted against simulated dip depth for ZTF24abbldyz, where the color corresponds to dip magnitude as in Figure 5. The horizontal red line indicates a p-value of 0.05, the cutoff for our two-sample K-S test with a 95% confidence interval. The p-value for the actual alert data is starred. As expected, the p-value decreases with dip amplitude and the relationship appears exponential. The 0.05 p-value cutoff successfully eliminates candidates with dip amplitudes close to zero and recognizes dip amplitudes greater than about 0.01 mag as statistically significant.
