| 1. A system for generating an application that analyzes image information, comprising:
a computer readable storage medium; and
a computer program stored on the storage medium comprising:
a set of algorithms, wherein each algorithm of the set of algorithms represents an operation performable by the application;
a plurality of neighborhood descriptions, wherein each of the plurality of neighborhood descriptions represents a subset of
a data object network, and wherein the data object network is generated by segmenting the image information; and
a graphical user interface that is used to generate a processing object network, wherein the processing object network includes
a parent process and a plurality of child processes, wherein the parent process comprises one of the plurality of neighborhood
descriptions and one algorithm of the set of algorithms, and wherein the algorithm performs the operation on the subset of
the data object network represented by the neighborhood description.
