动画轮廓和散点图

Question

I am trying to animate a scatter and bivariate gaussian distribution from a set of xy coordinates . I'll record the specific code that calls the scatter and distribution first and then how I measure the distribution afterwards.

    if ylim is None: ylim = datalimits(df['Y'])

    PDFs = []
    for (group,gdf),color in zip(df.groupby('group'), ('red', 'blue')):

        ax.plot(*gdf[['X','Y']].values.T, '.', c=color, alpha = 0.5)

I essentially want to animate this code by iterating over each row of xy coordinates.

Answer 1

Here's a very quick and dirty modification of the OP's code, fixing the scatter animation and adding (a form of) contour animation.

Basically, you start by creating the artists for your animation (in this case Line2D objects, as returned by plot() ). Subsequently, you create an update function (and, optionally, an initialization function). In that function, you update the existing artists. I think the example in the matplotlib docs explains it all.

In this case, I modified the OP's plotmvs function to be used as the update function (instead of the OP's proposed animate function).

The QuadContourSet returned by contourf (ie your cfs ) cannot be used as an artist in itself, but you can make it work using cfs.collections (props to this SO answer ). However, you still need to create a new contour plot and remove the old one, instead of just updating the contour data. Personally I would prefer a lower level approach: try to get the contour-data without calling contourf , then initialize and update the contour lines just like you do for the scatter.

Nevertheless, the approach above is implemented in the OP's code below (just copy, paste, and run):

import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import scipy.stats as sts
from matplotlib.animation import FuncAnimation

# quick and dirty override of datalimits(), to get a fixed contour-plot size
DATA_LIMITS = [0, 70]

def datalimits(*data, pad=.15):
    # dmin,dmax = min(d.min() for d in data), max(d.max() for d in data)
    # spad = pad*(dmax - dmin)
    return DATA_LIMITS  # dmin - spad, dmax + spad

def rot(theta):
    theta = np.deg2rad(theta)
    return np.array([
        [np.cos(theta), -np.sin(theta)],
        [np.sin(theta), np.cos(theta)]
    ])

def getcov(radius=1, scale=1, theta=0):
    cov = np.array([
        [radius*(scale + 1), 0],
        [0, radius/(scale + 1)]
    ])

    r = rot(theta)
    return r @ cov @ r.T

def mvpdf(x, y, xlim, ylim, radius=1, velocity=0, scale=0, theta=0):

    X,Y = np.meshgrid(np.linspace(*xlim), np.linspace(*ylim))

    XY = np.stack([X, Y], 2)

    x,y = rot(theta) @ (velocity/2, 0) + (x, y)

    cov = getcov(radius=radius, scale=scale, theta=theta)

    PDF = sts.multivariate_normal([x, y], cov).pdf(XY)

    return X, Y, PDF
