仅使用Python标准库(内存高效)

只提供标准库deque的另一个版本。令我惊讶的是，大多数答案都使用pandas或numpy。

def moving_average(iterable, n=3):
    d = deque(maxlen=n)
    for i in iterable:
        d.append(i)
        if len(d) == n:
            yield sum(d)/n

r = moving_average([40, 30, 50, 46, 39, 44])
assert list(r) == [40.0, 42.0, 45.0, 43.0]

实际上，我在python文档中找到了另一个实现

def moving_average(iterable, n=3):
    # moving_average([40, 30, 50, 46, 39, 44]) --> 40.0 42.0 45.0 43.0
    # http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_average
    it = iter(iterable)
    d = deque(itertools.islice(it, n-1))
    d.appendleft(0)
    s = sum(d)
    for elem in it:
        s += elem - d.popleft()
        d.append(elem)
        yield s / n

然而，在我看来，实现似乎比它应该的要复杂一些。但它肯定在标准python文档中是有原因的，有人能评论一下我的实现和标准文档吗?

如果你选择自己生成，而不是使用现有的库，请注意浮点错误并尽量减少其影响:

class SumAccumulator:
    def __init__(self):
        self.values = [0]
        self.count = 0

    def add( self, val ):
        self.values.append( val )
        self.count = self.count + 1
        i = self.count
        while i & 0x01:
            i = i >> 1
            v0 = self.values.pop()
            v1 = self.values.pop()
            self.values.append( v0 + v1 )

    def get_total(self):
        return sum( reversed(self.values) )

    def get_size( self ):
        return self.count

如果所有的值都是大致相同的数量级，那么这将通过始终添加大致相似的数量级值来帮助保持精度。

比起numpy或scipy，我建议熊猫们更快地做到这一点:

df['data'].rolling(3).mean()

这取列“数据”的3个周期的移动平均值(MA)。你也可以计算移位的版本，例如排除当前单元格的版本(向后移位一个)可以很容易地计算为:

df['data'].shift(periods=1).rolling(3).mean()

你可以使用scipy. nmage .uniform_filter1d:

import numpy as np
from scipy.ndimage import uniform_filter1d
N = 1000
x = np.random.random(100000)
y = uniform_filter1d(x, size=N)

uniform_filter1d:

给出具有相同numpy形状的输出(即点数) 允许多种方式处理边界，其中'reflect'是默认的，但在我的情况下，我更想要'nearest'

它也相当快(比np快近50倍)。卷积，比上述cumsum方法快2-5倍):

%timeit y1 = np.convolve(x, np.ones((N,))/N, mode='same')
100 loops, best of 3: 9.28 ms per loop

%timeit y2 = uniform_filter1d(x, size=N)
10000 loops, best of 3: 191 µs per loop

这里有3个函数可以让你比较不同实现的错误/速度:

from __future__ import division
import numpy as np
import scipy.ndimage as ndi
def running_mean_convolve(x, N):
    return np.convolve(x, np.ones(N) / float(N), 'valid')
def running_mean_cumsum(x, N):
    cumsum = np.cumsum(np.insert(x, 0, 0))
    return (cumsum[N:] - cumsum[:-N]) / float(N)
def running_mean_uniform_filter1d(x, N):
    return ndi.uniform_filter1d(x, N, mode='constant', origin=-(N//2))[:-(N-1)]

上述所有的解决方案都很差，因为它们缺乏

由于本机python而不是numpy向量化实现， 数值稳定性，由于numpy使用不当。cumsum或 由于O(len(x) * w)实现为卷积的速度。

鉴于

import numpy
m = 10000
x = numpy.random.rand(m)
w = 1000

注意x_[:w].sum()等于x[:w-1].sum()。因此，对于第一个平均值，numpy.cumsum(…)加上x[w] / w(通过x_[w+1] / w)，并减去0(从x_[0] / w)。结果是x[0:w].mean()

通过cumsum，您将通过添加x[w+1] / w并减去x[0] / w来更新第二个平均值，从而得到x[1:w+1].mean()。

这将一直进行，直到到达x[-w:].mean()。

x_ = numpy.insert(x, 0, 0)
sliding_average = x_[:w].sum() / w + numpy.cumsum(x_[w:] - x_[:-w]) / w

这个解是向量化的，O(m)，可读且数值稳定。
