一般来说,matplotlib通常不包含在多个轴对象(在本例中是子块)上操作的绘图函数。我们的期望是编写一个简单的函数,可以根据需要将所有内容串在一起。
我不太确定您的数据是什么样子,但是从头开始构建一个函数来完成这一点非常简单。如果您总是要使用结构化或rec阵列,那么您可以简化这一点。(即,总是有一个与每个数据系列相关联的名称,因此您可以省略指定名称的操作。)
例如:import itertools
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
def main():
np.random.seed(1977)
numvars, numdata = 4, 10
data = 10 * np.random.random((numvars, numdata))
fig = scatterplot_matrix(data, ['mpg', 'disp', 'drat', 'wt'],
linestyle='none', marker='o', color='black', mfc='none')
fig.suptitle('Simple Scatterplot Matrix')
plt.show()
def scatterplot_matrix(data, names, **kwargs):
"""Plots a scatterplot matrix of subplots. Each row of "data" is plotted
against other rows, resulting in a nrows by nrows grid of subplots with the
diagonal subplots labeled with "names". Additional keyword arguments are
passed on to matplotlib's "plot" command. Returns the matplotlib figure
object containg the subplot grid."""
numvars, numdata = data.shape
fig, axes = plt.subplots(nrows=numvars, ncols=numvars, figsize=(8,8))
fig.subplots_adjust(hspace=0.05, wspace=0.05)
for ax in axes.flat:
# Hide all ticks and labels
ax.xaxis.set_visible(False)
ax.yaxis.set_visible(False)
# Set up ticks only on one side for the "edge" subplots...
if ax.is_first_col():
ax.yaxis.set_ticks_position('left')
if ax.is_last_col():
ax.yaxis.set_ticks_position('right')
if ax.is_first_row():
ax.xaxis.set_ticks_position('top')
if ax.is_last_row():
ax.xaxis.set_ticks_position('bottom')
# Plot the data.
for i, j in zip(*np.triu_indices_from(axes, k=1)):
for x, y in [(i,j), (j,i)]:
axes[x,y].plot(data[x], data[y], **kwargs)
# Label the diagonal subplots...
for i, label in enumerate(names):
axes[i,i].annotate(label, (0.5, 0.5), xycoords='axes fraction',
ha='center', va='center')
# Turn on the proper x or y axes ticks.
for i, j in zip(range(numvars), itertools.cycle((-1, 0))):
axes[j,i].xaxis.set_visible(True)
axes[i,j].yaxis.set_visible(True)
return fig
main()
