*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).*
Linear heat equation / isotropic diffusion (HALCON `isotropic_diffusion`).
Explicit FTCS integration of I_t = lap(I) for a few steps (dt=0.2, stable for
the 2-D 5-point stencil). This is exactly linear isotropic diffusion, i.e. the
Green's-function-equivalent of Gaussian smoothing; `a` sets the diffusion time
(step count), so larger a blurs more. `b` is unused.

• 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.
