  abstract =   "Interactive visualization is widely used in many
               applications for efficient representation of complex data.
               Many techniques make use of the focus+context approach in a
               static manner. These techniques do not fully make use of the
               interaction semantics. In this paper we present a dynamic
               focus+context approach that highlights salient features
               during user interaction. We explore rotation, panning, and
               zooming interaction semantics and propose several methods of
               changing visual representations, based on a suggested
               engagement-estimation method. We use DVR-MIP interpolation
               and a radial opacity-change approach, exploring rotation,
               panning, and zooming semantics. Our approach adds short
               animations during user interaction that help to explore the
               data efficiently and aid the user in the detection of
               unknown features.",
