Final check:

WISE/WISE.W3: b - σ(b) = 1.31859 < 2.56
WISE/WISE.W4: b - σ(b) = 1.98338 < 2.56

Excess seems to start at WISE/WISE.W2 (both it and the next point are 'suspicious').
And at least one of the last two points meets the final criterium.

IR excess starts at WISE/WISE.W2.

2.- Only one "suspicious" point.

Final check:

AKARI/IRC.L18W: b - σ(b) = 2.84686 > 2.56
WISE/WISE.W4: b - σ(b) = 2.82417 > 2.56

Excess seems to start at WISE/WISE.W2 (both it and the next point are 'suspicious').
But none of the last two points meets the final criterium.

⇒ There is NO excess detected.

4.- Excess only in last point.

The first point that seems to present IR excess is the last one. We thus mark it as 'excess'.
