Three fixed velocity periods improve HD 32564 predictions in all six omitted seasons under 13 noise models
We test five reported velocity periods in public HARPS data for HD 32564. The 205 spectra give 193 nights. We omit each of six seasons in turn. We fit amplitudes and phases to the other seasons and predict changes within the omitted season. The 2.5566-, 11.0624-, and 23.6067-day terms improve prediction error and joint Gaussian prediction score in every test season. All 13 fixed noise models give this result for both SERVAL and DRS velocities. With a 2 m/s white-noise floor, the summed score gains are 183.81, 112.08, and 73.63 nats for SERVAL. The DRS gains are 186.76, 119.70, and 60.33 nats. The 49.21-day score is less stable. Its sum is slightly negative under some long-lived correlated-noise settings. A separate test uses training data to fit the first frequency within five local cells. Under the primary noise model, the 2.56-day cell predicts better than four daily-alias cells in each season. The aliases use solar and sidereal daily frequencies. The nearest rival is near 1.635 days. The target and periods were selected from these same data. The folds share observations, and the two products share spectra. These are conditional stability and alias tests. The scores are not Bayes factors or false-alarm probabilities. The work does not confirm planets. The package contains source records, code, provenance, complete results, figures, and reproduction instructions.
