Results are averaged across three observers (A.F., M.Y., and T.Y.P.). Average duration of each percept is expressed in seconds, the relative cumulative duration is expressed in percentages. λ and r are parameters of the theoretical Gamma distributions shown in Fig. 2

*Gamma functions could not be fitted for the yellow percept.
