您还可以首先计算散射分布的核密度估计值,然后使用密度值为每个散射点指定颜色,从而为点上色。要修改前面示例中的代码:import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from scipy.stats import gaussian_kde as kde
from matplotlib.colors import Normalize
from matplotlib import cm
N = 10000
mean = [0,0]
cov = [[2,2],[0,2]]
samples = np.random.multivariate_normal(mean,cov,N).T
densObj = kde( samples )
def makeColours( vals ):
colours = np.zeros( (len(vals),3) )
norm = Normalize( vmin=vals.min(), vmax=vals.max() )
#Can put any colormap you like here.
colours = [cm.ScalarMappable( norm=norm, cmap='jet').to_rgba( val ) for val in vals]
return colours
colours = makeColours( densObj.evaluate( samples ) )
plt.scatter( samples[0], samples[1], color=colours )
plt.show()
不久前,当我注意到scatter函数的文档时,我学会了这个技巧--c : color or sequence of color, optional, default : 'b'c can be a single color format string, or a sequence of color specifications of length N, or a sequence of N numbers to be mapped to colors using the cmap and norm specified via kwargs (see below). Note that c should not be a single numeric RGB or RGBA sequence because that is indistinguishable from an array of values to be colormapped. c can be a 2-D array in which the rows are RGB or RGBA, however, including the case of a single row to specify the same color for all points.
