Accessing and Representing Knowledge in the Medical Field: Visual and Lexical Modalities - 3D Multiscale Physiological Human - page 306

to be visualized, to the visualization purpose, to the type of insight to be achieved
and to the type of decision to be taken after.
Finally, when considering semantic interaction , we may think of 3D search as a
type of interaction with the user. Content-based and context-based search of 3Dmod-
els call for new requirements for information representation, filtering, aggregation
and networking, which are as intuitive as possible and effective in their capability of
bringing the users to the 3D content they wish to access.
