Figure caption: Our best-in-class targets for transmission (top) and emission (bottom) spectroscopy after performing our vetting and validation analysis on the sample. Similar to Figure 4, target names are displayed in the cell corresponding to the parameter space they occupy next to their TSM or ESM value in brackets, with approximate host stellar type denoted by the colored circle, as determined by reported effective temperature. Each target’s background color corresponds to its mass measurement and validation status: green targets are confirmed planets with mass measurements >5σ, yellow targets are confirmed planets with mass measurements <5σ and TOIs that were independently confirmed over the course of our analysis, dark blue targets have been statistically validated by our analysis, light blue targets are marginal validations (LPs and pFPs), red targets were deemed likely false positives (LFPs) by our analysis, and gray targets were deemed to have an inconclusive validation. Targets with an asterisk next to their name have an ambiguous period and their TSM values are liable to change as their T eq values were calculated on the reported periods not the true periods.
