Abstract

With the advance of biological research, it is possible and necessary to simulate metabolism on whole body scale such as MCMT (multi-component, multi-target) reaction mechanism which brings around 100millions to billions network data size. For this kind of data, it is essential to provide real-time visualization for analyzing the data. In this paper, we present a system that visualize body model having anatomical semantics for metabolism simulation data. We aim at real-time performance on massive scale network. The proposed method reconstruct hierarchical model from the massive reaction mechanism data. With the hierarchical model, the system filters and correlates the complex information to visualize in real-time and in optimized form for analysis. The proposed hierarchical model is composed of spatial information for navigation and the semantic information for analysis. We propose a zoom-able visualization interface by combining a set of structured classification of attributes of the data in a hierarchical structure. A prototype is implemented with real metabolism simulation data. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is illustrated through a performance analysis of the prototype implementation.
