Matplotlib - 固定x轴刻度和自动缩放y轴

Question

我想只绘制数​​组的一部分,修复x部分,但让y部分自动缩放.我尝试如下所示,但它不起作用.

有什么建议？

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

data=[np.arange(0,101,1),300-0.1*np.arange(0,101,1)]

plt.figure()

plt.scatter(data[0], data[1])
plt.xlim([50,100])
plt.autoscale(enable=True, axis='y')

plt.show()

Answer 1

虽然Joe Kington在建议只绘制必要的数据时肯定会提出最合理的答案,但在某些情况下最好绘制所有数据并缩放到某个部分.另外,拥有一个只需要轴对象的"autoscale_y"函数会很不错(也就是说,与此处的答案不同,这需要直接使用数据.)

这是一个只根据可见x区域中的数据重新缩放y轴的函数:

def autoscale_y(ax,margin=0.1):
    """This function rescales the y-axis based on the data that is visible given the current xlim of the axis.
    ax -- a matplotlib axes object
    margin -- the fraction of the total height of the y-data to pad the upper and lower ylims"""

    import numpy as np

    def get_bottom_top(line):
        xd = line.get_xdata()
        yd = line.get_ydata()
        lo,hi = ax.get_xlim()
        y_displayed = yd[((xd>lo) & (xd<hi))]
        h = np.max(y_displayed) - np.min(y_displayed)
        bot = np.min(y_displayed)-margin*h
        top = np.max(y_displayed)+margin*h
        return bot,top

    lines = ax.get_lines()
    bot,top = np.inf, -np.inf

    for line in lines:
        new_bot, new_top = get_bottom_top(line)
        if new_bot < bot: bot = new_bot
        if new_top > top: top = new_top

    ax.set_ylim(bot,top)

这是一种黑客攻击,并且在许多情况下可能不会起作用,但对于简单的情节,它可以很好地工作.

这是一个使用此函数的简单示例:

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

x = np.linspace(-100,100,1000)
y = x**2 + np.cos(x)*100

fig,axs = plt.subplots(1,2,figsize=(8,5))

for ax in axs:
    ax.plot(x,y)
    ax.plot(x,y*2)
    ax.plot(x,y*10)
    ax.set_xlim(-10,10)

autoscale_y(axs[1])

axs[0].set_title('Rescaled x-axis')
axs[1].set_title('Rescaled x-axis\nand used "autoscale_y"')

plt.show()

Answer 2

自动缩放始终使用全范围的数据,因此y轴按y数据的完整范围缩放,而不仅仅是x限制内的范围.

如果您想显示数据的子集,那么仅绘制该子集可能最简单:

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

x, y = np.arange(0,101,1) ,300 - 0.1*np.arange(0,101,1)
mask = (x >= 50) & (x <= 100)

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.scatter(x[mask], y[mask])

plt.show()

Answer 3

我以 @DanHickstein 的答案为基础，涵盖了用于缩放 x 轴或 y 轴的绘图、散点图和 axhline/axvline 的情况。它可以被称为像autoscale()在最新的轴上工作一样简单。如果您想编辑它，请在 gist 上分叉它。

def autoscale(ax=None, axis='y', margin=0.1):
    '''Autoscales the x or y axis of a given matplotlib ax object
    to fit the margins set by manually limits of the other axis,
    with margins in fraction of the width of the plot

    Defaults to current axes object if not specified.
    '''
    import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
    import numpy as np
    if ax is None:
        ax = plt.gca()
    newlow, newhigh = np.inf, -np.inf

    for artist in ax.collections + ax.lines:
        x,y = get_xy(artist)
        if axis == 'y':
            setlim = ax.set_ylim
            lim = ax.get_xlim()
            fixed, dependent = x, y
        else:
            setlim = ax.set_xlim
            lim = ax.get_ylim()
            fixed, dependent = y, x

        low, high = calculate_new_limit(fixed, dependent, lim)
        newlow = low if low < newlow else newlow
        newhigh = high if high > newhigh else newhigh

    margin = margin*(newhigh - newlow)

    setlim(newlow-margin, newhigh+margin)

def calculate_new_limit(fixed, dependent, limit):
    '''Calculates the min/max of the dependent axis given 
    a fixed axis with limits
    '''
    if len(fixed) > 2:
        mask = (fixed>limit[0]) & (fixed < limit[1])
        window = dependent[mask]
        low, high = window.min(), window.max()
    else:
        low = dependent[0]
        high = dependent[-1]
        if low == 0.0 and high == 1.0:
            # This is a axhline in the autoscale direction
            low = np.inf
            high = -np.inf
    return low, high

def get_xy(artist):
    '''Gets the xy coordinates of a given artist
    '''
    if "Collection" in str(artist):
        x, y = artist.get_offsets().T
    elif "Line" in str(artist):
        x, y = artist.get_xdata(), artist.get_ydata()
    else:
        raise ValueError("This type of object isn't implemented yet")
    return x, y

它和它的前身一样，有点 hacky，但这是必要的，因为集合和线有不同的返回 xy 坐标的方法，而且 axhline/axvline 很难使用，因为它只有两个数据点。

这是在行动中：

fig, axes = plt.subplots(ncols = 4, figsize=(12,3))
(ax1, ax2, ax3, ax4) = axes

x = np.linspace(0,100,300)
noise = np.random.normal(scale=0.1, size=x.shape)
y = 2*x + 3 + noise

for ax in axes:
    ax.plot(x, y)
    ax.scatter(x,y, color='red')
    ax.axhline(50., ls='--', color='green')
for ax in axes[1:]:
    ax.set_xlim(20,21)
    ax.set_ylim(40,45)

autoscale(ax3, 'y', margin=0.1)
autoscale(ax4, 'x', margin=0.1)

ax1.set_title('Raw data')
ax2.set_title('Specificed limits')
ax3.set_title('Autoscale y')
ax4.set_title('Autoscale x')
plt.tight_layout()
