A method, system and computer product for visualizing affinities between objects. The method includes the steps of: forming a representation of a minimum spanning tree where the minimum spanning tree connects the plurality of objects based on a pairwise distance between the plurality of objects; forming a hierarchical cluster of the plurality of objects where the hierarchical cluster includes a level; agglomerating the plurality of objects based on the pairwise distance; displaying a view of the representation of the minimum spanning tree in a graphical user interface; receiving a user selection of a parameter containing a hierarchical level; and identifying, in the view, a target cluster that corresponds to the hierarchical level; where at least one of the steps is carried out using a computer device so that affinities between the plurality of objects are visualized.
