在matplotlib中使用pcolor进行热图？

Question

我想制作一个这样的热图（显示在FlowingData上）：

源数据为here，但随机数据和标签可以正常使用，即

import numpy
column_labels = list('ABCD')
row_labels = list('WXYZ')
data = numpy.random.rand(4,4)

在matplotlib中制作热图很容易：

from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
heatmap = plt.pcolor(data)

我甚至找到了colormap看起来正确的heatmap = plt.pcolor(data, cmap=matplotlib.cm.Blues)个论点：heatmap.axes

但除此之外，我无法弄清楚如何显示列和行的标签，并以正确的方向显示数据（原点位于左上角而不是左下角）。

尝试操纵heatmap.axes.set_xticklabels = column_labels（例如{{1}}）都失败了。我在这里缺少什么？

Answer 1

现在已经很晚了，但这是我对流动数据NBA热图的python实现。

nba_sort['PTS'].head(10)

ax.invert_yaxis()
ax.xaxis.tick_top()

# Set the labels

ax.set_xticklabels(labels, minor=False)
ax.set_yticklabels(nba_sort.index, minor=False)

# rotate the
plt.xticks(rotation=90)

ax.grid(False)

有一个ipython笔记本，上面包含所有代码here。我从'溢出中学到了很多，所以希望有人会觉得这很有用。

主要问题是您首先需要设置x和y刻度的位置。此外，它有助于使用更加面向对象的matplotlib接口。即，直接与axes对象进行交互。

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
column_labels = list('ABCD')
row_labels = list('WXYZ')
data = np.random.rand(4,4)
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
heatmap = ax.pcolor(data)

# put the major ticks at the middle of each cell, notice "reverse" use of dimension
ax.set_yticks(np.arange(data.shape[0])+0.5, minor=False)
ax.set_xticks(np.arange(data.shape[1])+0.5, minor=False)


ax.set_xticklabels(row_labels, minor=False)
ax.set_yticklabels(column_labels, minor=False)
plt.show()

希望有所帮助。

Answer 3

python seaborn模块基于matplotlib，可以产生非常好的热图。

以下是seaborn的一个实现，专为ipython / jupyter笔记本设计。

import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import seaborn as sns
%matplotlib inline
# import the data directly into a pandas dataframe
nba = pd.read_csv("http://datasets.flowingdata.com/ppg2008.csv", index_col='Name  ')
# remove index title
nba.index.name = ""
# normalize data columns
nba_norm = (nba - nba.mean()) / (nba.max() - nba.min())
# relabel columns
labels = ['Games', 'Minutes', 'Points', 'Field goals made', 'Field goal attempts', 'Field goal percentage', 'Free throws made', 
          'Free throws attempts', 'Free throws percentage','Three-pointers made', 'Three-point attempt', 'Three-point percentage', 
          'Offensive rebounds', 'Defensive rebounds', 'Total rebounds', 'Assists', 'Steals', 'Blocks', 'Turnover', 'Personal foul']
nba_norm.columns = labels
# set appropriate font and dpi
sns.set(font_scale=1.2)
sns.set_style({"savefig.dpi": 100})
# plot it out
ax = sns.heatmap(nba_norm, cmap=plt.cm.Blues, linewidths=.1)
# set the x-axis labels on the top
ax.xaxis.tick_top()
# rotate the x-axis labels
plt.xticks(rotation=90)
# get figure (usually obtained via "fig,ax=plt.subplots()" with matplotlib)
fig = ax.get_figure()
# specify dimensions and save
fig.set_size_inches(15, 20)
fig.savefig("nba.png")

输出如下： 我使用了matplotlib蓝调色图，但个人发现默认颜色非常漂亮。我使用matplotlib旋转x轴标签，因为我找不到seaborn语法。正如grexor所指出的，有必要通过反复试验来指定维度（fig.set_size_inches），我发现这有点令人沮丧。

如Paul H所述，您可以轻松地将值添加到热图（annot = True），但在这种情况下，我认为它不会改善图形。几个代码片段取自joelotz的优秀答案。

Answer 4

有人编辑了这个问题以删除我使用的代码，因此我不得不将其添加为答案。感谢所有参与回答此问题的人！我认为大多数其他答案都比这个代码更好，我只是将其留在这里以供参考。

感谢Paul H和unutbu（谁回答了this question），我有一些非常漂亮的输出：

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
column_labels = list('ABCD')
row_labels = list('WXYZ')
data = np.random.rand(4,4)
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
heatmap = ax.pcolor(data, cmap=plt.cm.Blues)

# put the major ticks at the middle of each cell
ax.set_xticks(np.arange(data.shape[0])+0.5, minor=False)
ax.set_yticks(np.arange(data.shape[1])+0.5, minor=False)

# want a more natural, table-like display
ax.invert_yaxis()
ax.xaxis.tick_top()

ax.set_xticklabels(row_labels, minor=False)
ax.set_yticklabels(column_labels, minor=False)
plt.show()

这是输出：
