我正在尝试使用OpenCV实时绘制来自摄像机的一些数据。但是,实时绘图(使用matplotlib)似乎不能正常工作。

我把这个问题隔离在这个简单的例子中:

fig = plt.figure()
plt.axis([0, 1000, 0, 1])

i = 0
x = list()
y = list()

while i < 1000:
    temp_y = np.random.random()
    x.append(i)
    y.append(temp_y)
    plt.scatter(i, temp_y)
    i += 1
    plt.show()

我希望这个例子能分别画出1000个点。实际发生的情况是,窗口弹出,显示第一个点(好吧),然后等待循环结束,然后填充图的其余部分。

有什么想法,为什么我没有看到点填充一个时间?


当前回答

如果您对实时绘图感兴趣,我建议您查看matplotlib的动画API。特别是,使用blit来避免在每一帧上重画背景可以给你带来实质性的速度增益(~10倍):

#!/usr/bin/env python

import numpy as np
import time
import matplotlib
matplotlib.use('GTKAgg')
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt


def randomwalk(dims=(256, 256), n=20, sigma=5, alpha=0.95, seed=1):
    """ A simple random walk with memory """

    r, c = dims
    gen = np.random.RandomState(seed)
    pos = gen.rand(2, n) * ((r,), (c,))
    old_delta = gen.randn(2, n) * sigma

    while True:
        delta = (1. - alpha) * gen.randn(2, n) * sigma + alpha * old_delta
        pos += delta
        for ii in xrange(n):
            if not (0. <= pos[0, ii] < r):
                pos[0, ii] = abs(pos[0, ii] % r)
            if not (0. <= pos[1, ii] < c):
                pos[1, ii] = abs(pos[1, ii] % c)
        old_delta = delta
        yield pos


def run(niter=1000, doblit=True):
    """
    Display the simulation using matplotlib, optionally using blit for speed
    """

    fig, ax = plt.subplots(1, 1)
    ax.set_aspect('equal')
    ax.set_xlim(0, 255)
    ax.set_ylim(0, 255)
    ax.hold(True)
    rw = randomwalk()
    x, y = rw.next()

    plt.show(False)
    plt.draw()

    if doblit:
        # cache the background
        background = fig.canvas.copy_from_bbox(ax.bbox)

    points = ax.plot(x, y, 'o')[0]
    tic = time.time()

    for ii in xrange(niter):

        # update the xy data
        x, y = rw.next()
        points.set_data(x, y)

        if doblit:
            # restore background
            fig.canvas.restore_region(background)

            # redraw just the points
            ax.draw_artist(points)

            # fill in the axes rectangle
            fig.canvas.blit(ax.bbox)

        else:
            # redraw everything
            fig.canvas.draw()

    plt.close(fig)
    print "Blit = %s, average FPS: %.2f" % (
        str(doblit), niter / (time.time() - tic))

if __name__ == '__main__':
    run(doblit=False)
    run(doblit=True)

输出:

Blit = False, average FPS: 54.37
Blit = True, average FPS: 438.27

其他回答

我知道这个问题很老了,但是现在在GitHub上有一个叫做“python-drawnow”的包。这提供了一个类似于MATLAB的drawnow的界面——您可以轻松地更新图形。

用例示例:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from drawnow import drawnow

def make_fig():
    plt.scatter(x, y)  # I think you meant this

plt.ion()  # enable interactivity
fig = plt.figure()  # make a figure

x = list()
y = list()

for i in range(1000):
    temp_y = np.random.random()
    x.append(i)
    y.append(temp_y)  # or any arbitrary update to your figure's data
    i += 1
    drawnow(make_fig)

Python-drawnow是围绕plt的一个薄包装。绘图,但提供了图形显示后确认(或调试)的能力。

表演可能不是最好的选择。我要做的是使用pyplot.draw()代替。您还可能希望在循环中包含一个小的时间延迟(例如,time.sleep(0.05)),以便您可以看到情节的发生。如果我对你的例子做这些改变,它对我有用,我看到每个点一次出现一个。

如果你想要绘制而不是在绘制更多点时冻结线程,你应该使用plt.pause()而不是time.sleep()

我使用下面的代码来绘制一系列的xy坐标。

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt 
import math


pi = 3.14159

fig, ax = plt.subplots()

x = []
y = []

def PointsInCircum(r,n=20):
    circle = [(math.cos(2*pi/n*x)*r,math.sin(2*pi/n*x)*r) for x in xrange(0,n+1)]
    return circle

circle_list = PointsInCircum(3, 50)

for t in range(len(circle_list)):
    if t == 0:
        points, = ax.plot(x, y, marker='o', linestyle='--')
        ax.set_xlim(-4, 4) 
        ax.set_ylim(-4, 4) 
    else:
        x_coord, y_coord = circle_list.pop()
        x.append(x_coord)
        y.append(y_coord)
        points.set_data(x, y)
    plt.pause(0.01)

我知道现在回答这个问题有点晚了。尽管如此,我在前一段时间做了一些代码来绘制实时图表,我想分享一下:
