Filter chains with associated multipath views for exploring large data sets

A multipath explorer may allow a user to quickly visualize an entire population of data hierarchically in a tree-like structure. For example, a user can select a first filter to be applied to a data set, and the multipath explorer can display data in the data set that satisfies the first filter requirements and data in the data set that does not satisfy the first filter requirements. A second filter can be applied to the data in the data set, and the multipath explorer can display data in the data set that satisfies the first and second filter requirements, data in the data set that satisfies the first filter requirements and not the second filter requirements, data in the data set that satisfies the second filter requirements and not the first filter requirements, and data in the data set that does not satisfy the first or second filter requirements.
