创建带标注的热图#

通常希望将依赖于两个自变量的数据显示为颜色编码的图像图。这通常称为热图。如果数据是分类的,则称为分类热图。

Matplotlib 的 imshow 函数使创建此类图变得特别容易。

以下示例展示了如何创建带标注的热图。我们将从一个简单的示例开始,并将其扩展为可作为通用函数使用。

一个简单的分类热图#

我们可以从定义一些数据开始。我们需要一个 2D 列表或数组来定义要颜色编码的数据。然后我们还需要两个分类列表或数组;当然,这些列表中的元素数量需要与沿相应轴的数据相匹配。热图本身是一个 imshow 图,其标签设置为我们拥有的分类。请注意,重要的是要同时设置刻度线位置 (set_xticks) 和刻度线标签 (set_xticklabels),否则它们会不同步。位置只是升序的整数,而刻度线标签是要显示的标签。最后,我们可以通过在每个单元格中创建一个 Text 来标记数据本身,显示该单元格的值。

vegetables = ["cucumber", "tomato", "lettuce", "asparagus",
              "potato", "wheat", "barley"]
farmers = ["Farmer Joe", "Upland Bros.", "Smith Gardening",
           "Agrifun", "Organiculture", "BioGoods Ltd.", "Cornylee Corp."]

harvest = np.array([[0.8, 2.4, 2.5, 3.9, 0.0, 4.0, 0.0],
                    [2.4, 0.0, 4.0, 1.0, 2.7, 0.0, 0.0],
                    [1.1, 2.4, 0.8, 4.3, 1.9, 4.4, 0.0],
                    [0.6, 0.0, 0.3, 0.0, 3.1, 0.0, 0.0],
                    [0.7, 1.7, 0.6, 2.6, 2.2, 6.2, 0.0],
                    [1.3, 1.2, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 3.2, 5.1],
                    [0.1, 2.0, 0.0, 1.4, 0.0, 1.9, 6.3]])


fig, ax = plt.subplots()
im = ax.imshow(harvest)

# Show all ticks and label them with the respective list entries
ax.set_xticks(np.arange(len(farmers)), labels=farmers)
ax.set_yticks(np.arange(len(vegetables)), labels=vegetables)

# Rotate the tick labels and set their alignment.
plt.setp(ax.get_xticklabels(), rotation=45, ha="right",
         rotation_mode="anchor")

# Loop over data dimensions and create text annotations.
for i in range(len(vegetables)):
    for j in range(len(farmers)):
        text = ax.text(j, i, harvest[i, j],
                       ha="center", va="center", color="w")

ax.set_title("Harvest of local farmers (in tons/year)")
fig.tight_layout()
plt.show()
Harvest of local farmers (in tons/year)

使用辅助函数代码样式#

正如 代码样式 中所述,可能希望重用此类代码来为不同的输入数据和/或不同的轴创建某种热图。我们创建一个函数,该函数将数据以及行和列标签作为输入,并允许用于自定义绘图的参数

这里,除了上述内容之外,我们还希望创建一个颜色条,并将标签放置在热图的上方而不是下方。标注应根据阈值获得不同的颜色,以更好地与像素颜色形成对比。最后,我们将周围轴脊柱关闭,并创建一个白色线条网格来分隔单元格。

现在,以上内容使我们能够保持实际的绘图创建非常简洁。

fig, ax = plt.subplots()

im, cbar = heatmap(harvest, vegetables, farmers, ax=ax,
                   cmap="YlGn", cbarlabel="harvest [t/year]")
texts = annotate_heatmap(im, valfmt="{x:.1f} t")

# use an integer format on the annotations and provide some colors.
