时间序列直方图#

这个例子演示了如何有效地可视化大量时间序列,这种方式可能会揭示隐藏的子结构和不立即明显的模式,并以视觉上吸引人的方式显示它们。

在这个例子中,我们生成了多个正弦“信号”序列,它们被隐藏在大量随机游走“噪声/背景”序列之下。对于标准偏差为 σ 的无偏高斯随机游走,n 步后与原点的 RMS 偏差为 σ*sqrt(n)。因此,为了使正弦曲线在与随机游走相同的尺度上可见,我们通过随机游走 RMS 来缩放幅度。此外,我们还引入了一个小的随机偏移phi 来向左/向右移动正弦,以及一些附加的随机噪声来向上/向下移动单个数据点,以使信号更“真实”(你不会期望完美的正弦波出现在您的数据中)。

第一个图显示了可视化多个时间序列的典型方法,方法是将它们相互叠加,plt.plot并带有一个小的值 alpha. np.histogram2d第二个和第三个图显示了如何使用和将数据重新解释为二维直方图,并在数据点之间进行可选插值 plt.pcolormesh
