如何在 matplotlib 中为等高线图创建图例？

Question

我似乎无法在任何地方找到答案！我在 这里 找到了一个讨论，但尝试这个我得到了 TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable ：

 >>> import numpy as np
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
>>> x, y = np.meshgrid(np.arange(10),np.arange(10))
>>> z = x + y
>>> cs = plt.contourf(x,y,z,levels=[2,3])
>>> cs.collections[0].set_label('test')
>>> plt.legend()
Traceback (most recent call last):

Answer 1

您可以创建代理艺术家来制作传奇：

 import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
x, y = np.meshgrid(np.arange(10),np.arange(10))
z = np.sqrt(x**2 + y**2)
cs = plt.contourf(x,y,z,levels=[2,3,4,6])

proxy = [plt.Rectangle((0,0),1,1,fc = pc.get_facecolor()[0])
    for pc in cs.collections]

plt.legend(proxy, ["range(2-3)", "range(3-4)", "range(4-6)"])
plt.show()

您也可以直接使用轮廓线来完成，而无需使用代理艺术家。

 import matplotlib
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.cm as cm
import matplotlib.mlab as mlab
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

matplotlib.rcParams['xtick.direction'] = 'out'
matplotlib.rcParams['ytick.direction'] = 'out'

delta = 0.025
x = np.arange(-3.0, 3.0, delta)
y = np.arange(-2.0, 2.0, delta)
X, Y = np.meshgrid(x, y)
Z1 = mlab.bivariate_normal(X, Y, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0)
Z2 = mlab.bivariate_normal(X, Y, 1.5, 0.5, 1, 1)
# difference of Gaussians
Z = 10.0 * (Z2 - Z1)

# Create a simple contour plot with labels using default colors.  The
# inline argument to clabel will control whether the labels are draw
# over the line segments of the contour, removing the lines beneath
# the label
plt.figure()
CS = plt.contour(X, Y, Z)
plt.clabel(CS, inline=1, fontsize=10)
plt.title('Simplest default with labels')

labels = ['line1', 'line2','line3','line4',
           'line5', 'line6']
for i in range(len(labels)):
    CS.collections[i].set_label(labels[i])

plt.legend(loc='upper left')

会产生：

但是，您可能还想根据自己的需要查看注释。在我看来，它会让你更细粒度地控制你在图像上的位置和内容，这里是带有一些注释的相同示例：

 ### better with annotation, more flexible
plt.figure(2)
CS = plt.contour(X, Y, Z)
plt.clabel(CS, inline=1, fontsize=10)
plt.title('Simplest default with labels')

plt.annotate('some text here',(1.4,1.6))
plt.annotate('some text there',(-2,-1.5))
