A forward-modeling framework called TAED combines multi-technique exoplanet samples over Galactic scales and recovers demographic parameters accurately from simulated Kepler transit data using differential evolution optimization.
Archival RV and astrometric data plus three-body simulations constrain an unseen outer perturber in the GJ 436 system to sub-Jovian masses at a_c ≳ 6.8 AU, supporting Kozai-Lidov migration as the source of the hot Neptune's polar eccentric orbit.

Observational and Dynamical Constraints on an Unseen Outer Perturber in the GJ 436 Hot Neptune System
