从其他答案来看，我不认为这是问题所要求的，但我需要保持一个不断增长的值列表的运行平均值。

因此，如果你想保持从某个地方(站点，测量设备等)获取的值的列表和最近n个值更新的平均值，你可以使用下面的代码，这将最大限度地减少添加新元素的工作:

class Running_Average(object):
    def __init__(self, buffer_size=10):
        """
        Create a new Running_Average object.

        This object allows the efficient calculation of the average of the last
        `buffer_size` numbers added to it.

        Examples
        --------
        >>> a = Running_Average(2)
        >>> a.add(1)
        >>> a.get()
        1.0
        >>> a.add(1)  # there are two 1 in buffer
        >>> a.get()
        1.0
        >>> a.add(2)  # there's a 1 and a 2 in the buffer
        >>> a.get()
        1.5
        >>> a.add(2)
        >>> a.get()  # now there's only two 2 in the buffer

        if n < self.buffer_size:  # still have to had numbers to the buffer.
            self._buffer.append(new)
            if self._average != self._average:  # ~ if isNaN().

你可以测试它，例如:

def graph_test(N=200):
    import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
    values = list(range(N))
    values_average_calculator = Running_Average(N/2)
    values_averages = []
    for value in values:
        values_average_calculator.add(value)
        values_averages.append(values_average_calculator())
    fig, ax = plt.subplots(1, 1)
    ax.plot(values, label='values')
    ax.plot(values_averages, label='averages')
    ax.grid()
    ax.set_xlim(0, N)
    ax.set_ylim(0, N)
    fig.show()

有点晚了，但我已经做了我自己的小函数，它不环绕端点或垫与零，然后用于查找平均值。进一步的处理是，它还在线性间隔点上对信号进行重新采样。随意定制代码以获得其他特性。

该方法是一个简单的矩阵乘法与规范化高斯核。

def running_mean(y_in, x_in, N_out=101, sigma=1):
    '''
    Returns running mean as a Bell-curve weighted average at evenly spaced
    points. Does NOT wrap signal around, or pad with zeros.
    
    Arguments:
    y_in -- y values, the values to be smoothed and re-sampled
    x_in -- x values for array
    
    Keyword arguments:
    N_out -- NoOf elements in resampled array.
    sigma -- 'Width' of Bell-curve in units of param x .
    '''
    import numpy as np
    N_in = len(y_in)

    # Gaussian kernel
    x_out = np.linspace(np.min(x_in), np.max(x_in), N_out)
    x_in_mesh, x_out_mesh = np.meshgrid(x_in, x_out)
    gauss_kernel = np.exp(-np.square(x_in_mesh - x_out_mesh) / (2 * sigma**2))
    # Normalize kernel, such that the sum is one along axis 1
    normalization = np.tile(np.reshape(np.sum(gauss_kernel, axis=1), (N_out, 1)), (1, N_in))
    gauss_kernel_normalized = gauss_kernel / normalization
    # Perform running average as a linear operation
    y_out = gauss_kernel_normalized @ y_in

正弦信号加正态分布噪声的一个简单用法:

有关现成的解决方案，请参见https://scipy-cookbook.readthedocs.io/items/SignalSmooth.html。 它提供了平窗类型的运行平均值。请注意，这比简单的do-it-yourself卷积方法要复杂一些，因为它试图通过反射数据来处理数据开头和结尾的问题(在您的情况下可能有效，也可能无效……)。

首先，你可以试着:

a = np.random.random(100)
plt.plot(a)
b = smooth(a, window='flat')
plt.plot(b)

移动平均过滤器怎么样?它也是一个单行程序，它的优点是，如果你需要矩形以外的东西，你可以很容易地操作窗口类型。一个n长的简单移动平均数组a:

lfilter(np.ones(N)/N, [1], a)[N:]

应用三角形窗口后:

lfilter(np.ones(N)*scipy.signal.triang(N)/N, [1], a)[N:]

注:我通常会在最后丢弃前N个样本作为假的，因此[N:]，但这是没有必要的，只是个人选择的问题。

你可以用以下方法计算运行平均值:

import numpy as np

def runningMean(x, N):
    y = np.zeros((len(x),))
    for ctr in range(len(x)):
         y[ctr] = np.sum(x[ctr:(ctr+N)])
    return y/N

但是速度很慢。

幸运的是，numpy包含一个卷积函数，我们可以用它来加快速度。运行均值相当于将x与一个长度为N的向量进行卷积，其中所有元素都等于1/N。卷积的numpy实现包括起始瞬态，所以你必须删除前N-1点:

def runningMeanFast(x, N):
    return np.convolve(x, np.ones((N,))/N)[(N-1):]

在我的机器上，快速版本要快20-30倍，这取决于输入向量的长度和平均窗口的大小。

请注意，卷积确实包括一个“相同”模式，它似乎应该解决开始的瞬态问题，但它在开始和结束之间分割。

对于一个简短、快速的解决方案，在一个循环中完成所有事情，没有依赖关系，下面的代码工作得很好。

mylist = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
N = 3
cumsum, moving_aves = [0], []

for i, x in enumerate(mylist, 1):
    cumsum.append(cumsum[i-1] + x)
    if i>=N:
        moving_ave = (cumsum[i] - cumsum[i-N])/N
        #can do stuff with moving_ave here
        moving_aves.append(moving_ave)
