Matplotlib FuncAnimation慢

Question

我使用matplotlib的FuncAnimation创建了一个表面绑定过程的简单动画。结果却非常缓慢。我怀疑是因为我正在重绘每一帧的所有元素，但我还没有找到解决办法。任何帮助表示赞赏。

pAds = 0.01     # adsorption probability per time step
pDes = 0.0075   # desorption probability per time step

tMax = 500     # number of time steps

surface = np.zeros((nx,ny))              # create surface
xc = [0]
yc = [0]


# initialization and time step of simulation

    # initialize an empty list of circles

                    patches.append(ax_surf.add_patch(plt.Circle((x+0.5,y+0.5),0.45,color='b')))
    coverage = np.sum(surface)/(nx*ny)

    yc.append(coverage)
    lines, = ax_covr.plot(xc,yc,'ro',ms=2,lw=0)
    patches.append(lines)
    return patches

# set up figure and animate


fig = plt.figure()
ax_surf = plt.subplot2grid((1, 2), (0, 0))
ax_covr = plt.subplot2grid((1, 2), (0, 1))
ax_surf.set_xlim(0,nx)
ax_surf.set_ylim(0,ny)
ax_covr.set_xlim(0,tMax)
ax_covr.set_ylim(0,1)

ax_surf.set_aspect(1)
ax_surf.axis('off')

ax_covr.set_aspect(tMax)

ax_surf.hold(False)

anim = animation.FuncAnimation(fig, animate, init_func=init, frames=tMax, interval=0, blit=True,repeat=False)
plt.show()

使用之前patches / init来电的animate，而不是每次都创建新的。{/ p>

以下是代码的修改版本。

patches = []

def init():
    global patches
    if patches:
        # prevent the second call of the init()
        return patches
    # initialize an empty list of circles
    for x in range(nx):
        for y in range(ny):
            if(surface[x][y] == 0):
                patches.append(ax_surf.add_patch(plt.Circle((x+0.5,y+0.5),0.45,color='w')))
    lines, = ax_covr.plot([],[])
    patches.append(lines)
    return patches

def animate(i): 
    global patches
    idx = 0
    for x in range(nx):
        for y in range(ny):
            if surface[x][y] == 0:
                if random() < pAds:
                    surface[x][y] = 1
                    patches[idx] = ax_surf.add_patch(plt.Circle((x+0.5,y+0.5),0.45,color='b'))
            else:
                if(random()<pDes):
                    surface[x][y] = 0
                    patches[idx] = ax_surf.add_patch(plt.Circle((x+0.5,y+0.5),0.45,color='w'))
            idx += 1
    coverage = np.sum(surface)/(nx*ny)
    xc.append(i)
    yc.append(coverage)
    lines, = ax_covr.plot(xc,yc,'ro',ms=2,lw=0)
    patches[idx] = lines
    return patches

注意：使用全局变量来最小化修改。
