我想制作一个散点图,其中每个点都根据附近点的空间密度进行着色。
我遇到过一个非常类似的问题,它展示了使用 R 的示例:
使用 matplotlib 在 python 中完成类似任务的最佳方法是什么?
除了 @askewchan 建议的
hist2d
或 hexbin
之外,您还可以使用您链接到的问题中接受的答案所使用的相同方法。
如果你想这样做:
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from scipy.stats import gaussian_kde
# Generate fake data
x = np.random.normal(size=1000)
y = x * 3 + np.random.normal(size=1000)
# Calculate the point density
xy = np.vstack([x,y])
z = gaussian_kde(xy)(xy)
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.scatter(x, y, c=z, s=100)
plt.show()
如果您希望按密度顺序绘制点,以便最密集的点始终位于顶部(类似于链接的示例),只需按 z 值对它们进行排序即可。我还将在这里使用较小的标记尺寸,因为它看起来更好一点:
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from scipy.stats import gaussian_kde
# Generate fake data
x = np.random.normal(size=1000)
y = x * 3 + np.random.normal(size=1000)
# Calculate the point density
xy = np.vstack([x,y])
z = gaussian_kde(xy)(xy)
# Sort the points by density, so that the densest points are plotted last
idx = z.argsort()
x, y, z = x[idx], y[idx], z[idx]
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.scatter(x, y, c=z, s=50)
plt.show()
接受的答案,使用gaussian_kde()将花费很多时间。在我的机器上,100k 行大约需要 11 分钟。在这里,我将添加两种替代方法(mpl-scatter-densis和datashader)并将给定的答案与相同的数据集进行比较。
下面我使用了100k行的测试数据集:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
# Fake data for testing
x = np.random.normal(size=100000)
y = x * 3 + np.random.normal(size=100000)
以下是不同方法的比较。
1: mpl-scatter-density
安装
pip install mpl-scatter-density
示例代码
import mpl_scatter_density # adds projection='scatter_density'
from matplotlib.colors import LinearSegmentedColormap
# "Viridis-like" colormap with white background
white_viridis = LinearSegmentedColormap.from_list('white_viridis', [
(0, '#ffffff'),
(1e-20, '#440053'),
(0.2, '#404388'),
(0.4, '#2a788e'),
(0.6, '#21a784'),
(0.8, '#78d151'),
(1, '#fde624'),
], N=256)
def using_mpl_scatter_density(fig, x, y):
ax = fig.add_subplot(1, 1, 1, projection='scatter_density')
density = ax.scatter_density(x, y, cmap=white_viridis)
fig.colorbar(density, label='Number of points per pixel')
fig = plt.figure()
using_mpl_scatter_density(fig, x, y)
plt.show()
2: datashader
安装
pip install datashader
代码(dsshow的源代码和参数列表):
import datashader as ds
from datashader.mpl_ext import dsshow
import pandas as pd
def using_datashader(ax, x, y):
df = pd.DataFrame(dict(x=x, y=y))
dsartist = dsshow(
df,
ds.Point("x", "y"),
ds.count(),
vmin=0,
vmax=35,
norm="linear",
aspect="auto",
ax=ax,
)
plt.colorbar(dsartist)
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
using_datashader(ax, x, y)
plt.show()
dsshow
的第三个参数控制着色。请参阅更多示例此处以及 dsshow 的源代码此处。
3: scatter_with_gaussian_kde
def scatter_with_gaussian_kde(ax, x, y):
# https://stackoverflow.com/a/20107592/3015186
# Answer by Joel Kington
xy = np.vstack([x, y])
z = gaussian_kde(xy)(xy)
ax.scatter(x, y, c=z, s=100, edgecolor='')
4: using_hist2d
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
def using_hist2d(ax, x, y, bins=(50, 50)):
# https://stackoverflow.com/a/20105673/3015186
# Answer by askewchan
ax.hist2d(x, y, bins, cmap=plt.cm.jet)
5: density_scatter
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib import cm
from matplotlib.colors import Normalize
from scipy.interpolate import interpn
def density_scatter( x , y, ax = None, sort = True, bins = 20, **kwargs ) :
"""
Scatter plot colored by 2d histogram
"""
if ax is None :
fig , ax = plt.subplots()
data , x_e, y_e = np.histogram2d( x, y, bins = bins, density = True )
z = interpn( ( 0.5*(x_e[1:] + x_e[:-1]) , 0.5*(y_e[1:]+y_e[:-1]) ) , data , np.vstack([x,y]).T , method = "splinef2d", bounds_error = False)
#To be sure to plot all data
z[np.where(np.isnan(z))] = 0.0
# Sort the points by density, so that the densest points are plotted last
if sort :
idx = z.argsort()
x, y, z = x[idx], y[idx], z[idx]
ax.scatter( x, y, c=z, **kwargs )
norm = Normalize(vmin = np.min(z), vmax = np.max(z))
cbar = fig.colorbar(cm.ScalarMappable(norm = norm), ax=ax)
cbar.ax.set_ylabel('Density')
return ax
if "__main__" == __name__ :
x = np.random.normal(size=100000)
y = x * 3 + np.random.normal(size=100000)
density_scatter( x, y, bins = [30,30] )
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
# fake data:
a = np.random.normal(size=1000)
b = a*3 + np.random.normal(size=1000)
plt.hist2d(a, b, (50, 50), cmap=plt.cm.jet)
plt.colorbar()
