augmentation op• Data kinds: image → image
• Call: fullseye.apply(img, "aug_cutout", a=0.5, b=0.5) (the 2-D model is one image plus two scalar knobs a,b∈[0,1])

*The figure is the real output on a synthetic 128×128 input. Left: input, right: output (a non-image return value is shown as the value itself).*
Cutout / random-erasing occlusion (DeVries & Taylor 2017; Zhong et al. 2020): a square patch of side `max(1, a*min(H,W)) is erased from the image, forcing a pipeline to survive partial occlusion instead of relying on one salient blob. b` selects the (deterministic, seeded-from-b) patch position AND the fill value: b <= 0.5 -> black (0.0), b > 0.5 -> mid-gray (0.5). The patch is always fully inside the frame.

• Sample-data catalog (download URLs / licences) — 2-D uses skimage.data (BSD/public domain) plus synthetic images; 3-D lists download URLs for real data sources (Stanford, PDS, …).
• Operator provenance and references — the sources of the research/methods this op family came from.
• The canonical algorithm (author, year) and its uses are named in the family usage guide above.
The program below has been verified to run (same input as the figure). In Studio's help this block becomes buttons that load and run it on the spot.
