Annotate bars with values on Pandas bar plots
(4 answers)
Closed 1 year ago.
I would like to create an annotation to a bar chart that compares the value of the bar to two reference values. An overlay such as shown in the picture, a kind of staff gauge, is possible, but I'm open to more elegant solutions.
The bar chart is generated with the pandas API to matplotlib (e.g. data.plot(kind="bar")), so a plus would be if the solution is playing nicely with that.
You may use smaller bars for the target and benchmark indicators. Pandas cannot annotate bars automatically, but you can simply loop over the values and use matplotlib's pyplot.annotate instead.
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
a = np.random.randint(5,15, size=5)
t = (a+np.random.normal(size=len(a))*2).round(2)
b = (a+np.random.normal(size=len(a))*2).round(2)
df = pd.DataFrame({"a":a, "t":t, "b":b})
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
df["a"].plot(kind='bar', ax=ax, legend=True)
df["b"].plot(kind='bar', position=0., width=0.1, color="lightblue",legend=True, ax=ax)
df["t"].plot(kind='bar', position=1., width=0.1, color="purple", legend=True, ax=ax)
for i, rows in df.iterrows():
plt.annotate(rows["a"], xy=(i, rows["a"]), rotation=0, color="C0")
plt.annotate(rows["b"], xy=(i+0.1, rows["b"]), color="lightblue", rotation=+20, ha="left")
plt.annotate(rows["t"], xy=(i-0.1, rows["t"]), color="purple", rotation=-20, ha="right")
ax.set_xlim(-1,len(df))
plt.show()
There's no direct way to annotate a bar plot (as far as I am aware) Some time ago I needed to annotate one so I wrote this, perhaps you can adapt it to your needs.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
ax = plt.subplot(111)
ax.set_xlim(-0.2, 3.2)
ax.grid(b=True, which='major', color='k', linestyle=':', lw=.5, zorder=1)
# x,y data
x = np.arange(4)
y = np.array([5, 12, 3, 7])
# Define upper y limit leaving space for the text above the bars.
up = max(y) * .03
ax.set_ylim(0, max(y) + 3 * up)
ax.bar(x, y, align='center', width=0.2, color='g', zorder=4)
# Add text to bars
for xi, yi, l in zip(*[x, y, list(map(str, y))]):
ax.text(xi - len(l) * .02, yi + up, l,
bbox=dict(facecolor='w', edgecolor='w', alpha=.5))
ax.set_xticks(x)
ax.set_xticklabels(['text1', 'text2', 'text3', 'text4'])
ax.tick_params(axis='x', which='major', labelsize=12)
plt.show()
I've two plots generated using matplotlib. The first represents my backround and the second a group of points which I want to show. Is there a way to overlap the two plots?
background:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize = (10,10))
grid_duomo = gpd.read_file('/content/Griglia_2m-SS.shp')
grid_duomo.to_crs(epsg=32632).plot(ax=ax, color='lightgrey')
points:
fig = plt.figure(figsize=(10, 10))
ids = traj_collection_df_new_app['id'].unique()
for id_ in ids:
self_id = traj_collection_df_new_app[traj_collection_df_new_app['id'] == id_]
plt.plot(
self_id['lon'],
self_id['lat'],
# markers= 'o',
# markersize=12
)
plt.plot() will always take the most recent axis found by matplotlib and use it for plotting.
Its practically the same as plt.gca().plot() where plt.gca() stands for "get current axis".
To get full control over which axis is used, you should do something like this:
(the zorder argument is used to set the "vertical stacking" of the artists, e.g. zorder=2 will be plotted on top of zorder=1)
f = plt.figure() # create a figure
ax = f.add_subplot( ... ) # create an axis in the figure f
ax.plot(..., zorder=0)
grid_duomo.plot(ax=ax, ..., zorder=1)
# you can then continue to add more axes to the same figure using
# f.add_subplot() or f.add_axes()
(if this is unclear, maybe check the quick_start guide of matplotlib? )
I have a DataFrame and need to make a scatter-plot from it.
I need to use 2 columns as the x-axis and y-axis and only need to plot 2 rows from the entire dataset. Any suggestions?
For example, my dataframe is below (50 states x 4 columns). I need to plot 'rgdp_change' on the x-axis vs 'diff_unemp' on the y-axis, and only need to plot for the states, "Michigan" and "Wisconsin".
So from the dataframe, you'll need to select the rows from a list of the states you want: ['Michigan', 'Wisconsin']
I also figured you would probably want a legend or some way to differentiate one point from the other. To do this, we create a colormap assigning a different color to each state. This way the code is generalizable for more than those two states.
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import matplotlib.cm as cm
import matplotlib.colors as colors
# generate a random df with the relevant rows, columns to your actual df
df = pd.DataFrame({'State':['Alabama', 'Alaska', 'Michigan', 'Wisconsin'], 'real_gdp':[1.75*10**5, 4.81*10**4, 2.59*10**5, 1.04*10**5],
'rgdp_change': [-0.4, 0.5, 0.4, -0.5], 'diff_unemp': [-1.3, 0.4, 0.5, -11]})
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
states = ['Michigan', 'Wisconsin']
colormap = cm.viridis
colorlist = [colors.rgb2hex(colormap(i)) for i in np.linspace(0, 0.9, len(states))]
for i,c in enumerate(colorlist):
x = df.loc[df["State"].isin(['Michigan', 'Wisconsin'])].rgdp_change.values[i]
y = df.loc[df["State"].isin(['Michigan', 'Wisconsin'])].diff_unemp.values[i]
legend_label = states[i]
ax.scatter(x, y, label=legend_label, s=50, linewidth=0.1, c=c)
ax.legend()
plt.show()
Use the dataframe plot method, but first filter the sates you need using index isin method:
states = ["Michigan", "Wisconsin"]
df[df.index.isin(states)].plot(kind='scatter', x='rgdp_change', y='diff_unemp')
I have a few Pandas DataFrames sharing the same value scale, but having different columns and indices. When invoking df.plot(), I get separate plot images. what I really want is to have them all in the same plot as subplots, but I'm unfortunately failing to come up with a solution to how and would highly appreciate some help.
You can manually create the subplots with matplotlib, and then plot the dataframes on a specific subplot using the ax keyword. For example for 4 subplots (2x2):
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig, axes = plt.subplots(nrows=2, ncols=2)
df1.plot(ax=axes[0,0])
df2.plot(ax=axes[0,1])
...
Here axes is an array which holds the different subplot axes, and you can access one just by indexing axes.
If you want a shared x-axis, then you can provide sharex=True to plt.subplots.
You can see e.gs. in the documentation demonstrating joris answer. Also from the documentation, you could also set subplots=True and layout=(,) within the pandas plot function:
df.plot(subplots=True, layout=(1,2))
You could also use fig.add_subplot() which takes subplot grid parameters such as 221, 222, 223, 224, etc. as described in the post here. Nice examples of plot on pandas data frame, including subplots, can be seen in this ipython notebook.
You can plot multiple subplots of multiple pandas data frames using matplotlib with a simple trick of making a list of all data frame. Then using the for loop for plotting subplots.
Working code:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
# dataframe sample data
df1 = pd.DataFrame(np.random.rand(10,2)*100, columns=['A', 'B'])
df2 = pd.DataFrame(np.random.rand(10,2)*100, columns=['A', 'B'])
df3 = pd.DataFrame(np.random.rand(10,2)*100, columns=['A', 'B'])
df4 = pd.DataFrame(np.random.rand(10,2)*100, columns=['A', 'B'])
df5 = pd.DataFrame(np.random.rand(10,2)*100, columns=['A', 'B'])
df6 = pd.DataFrame(np.random.rand(10,2)*100, columns=['A', 'B'])
#define number of rows and columns for subplots
nrow=3
ncol=2
# make a list of all dataframes
df_list = [df1 ,df2, df3, df4, df5, df6]
fig, axes = plt.subplots(nrow, ncol)
# plot counter
count=0
for r in range(nrow):
for c in range(ncol):
df_list[count].plot(ax=axes[r,c])
count+=1
Using this code you can plot subplots in any configuration. You need to define the number of rows nrow and the number of columns ncol. Also, you need to make list of data frames df_list which you wanted to plot.
You can use the familiar Matplotlib style calling a figure and subplot, but you simply need to specify the current axis using plt.gca(). An example:
plt.figure(1)
plt.subplot(2,2,1)
df.A.plot() #no need to specify for first axis
plt.subplot(2,2,2)
df.B.plot(ax=plt.gca())
plt.subplot(2,2,3)
df.C.plot(ax=plt.gca())
etc...
You can use this:
fig = plt.figure()
ax = fig.add_subplot(221)
plt.plot(x,y)
ax = fig.add_subplot(222)
plt.plot(x,z)
...
plt.show()
You may not need to use Pandas at all. Here's a matplotlib plot of cat frequencies:
x = np.linspace(0, 2*np.pi, 400)
y = np.sin(x**2)
f, axes = plt.subplots(2, 1)
for c, i in enumerate(axes):
axes[c].plot(x, y)
axes[c].set_title('cats')
plt.tight_layout()
Option 1: Create subplots from a dictionary of dataframes with long (tidy) data
Assumptions:
There is a dictionary of multiple dataframes of tidy data that are either:
Created by reading in from files
Created by separating a single dataframe into multiple dataframes
The categories, cat, may be overlapping, but all dataframes don't necessarily contain all values of cat
hue='cat'
This example uses a dict of dataframes, but a list of dataframes would be similar.
If the dataframes are wide, use pandas.DataFrame.melt to convert them to long form.
Because dataframes are being iterated through, there's no guarantee that colors will be mapped the same for each plot
A custom color map needs to be created from the unique 'cat' values for all the dataframes
Since the colors will be the same, place one legend to the side of the plots, instead of a legend in every plot

Create color mappings and plot
# create color mapping based on all unique values of cat
unique_cat = {cat for v in df_dict.values() for cat in v.cat.unique()} # get unique cats
colors = sns.color_palette('tab10', n_colors=len(unique_cat)) # get a number of colors
cmap = dict(zip(unique_cat, colors)) # zip values to colors
col_nums = 3 # how many plots per row
row_nums = math.ceil(len(df_dict) / col_nums) # how many rows of plots
# create the figue and axes
fig, axes = plt.subplots(row_nums, col_nums, figsize=(9, 6), sharex=True, sharey=True)
# convert to 1D array for easy iteration
axes = axes.flat
# iterate through dictionary and plot
for ax, (k, v) in zip(axes, df_dict.items()):
sns.scatterplot(data=v, x='x', y='y', hue='cat', palette=cmap, ax=ax)
sns.despine(top=True, right=True)
ax.legend_.remove() # remove the individual plot legends
ax.set_title(f'dataset = {k}', fontsize=11)
fig.tight_layout()
# create legend from cmap
# patches = [Patch(color=v, label=k) for k, v in cmap.items()] # square patches

# place legend outside of plot; change the right bbox value to move the legend up or down
plt.legend(title='cat', handles=patches, bbox_to_anchor=(1.06, 1.2), loc='center left', borderaxespad=0, frameon=False)
plt.show()
Option 2: Create subplots from a single dataframe with multiple separate datasets
The dataframes must be in a long form with the same column names.
This option uses pd.concat to combine multiple dataframes into a single dataframe, and .assign to add a new column.
See Import multiple csv files into pandas and concatenate into one DataFrame for creating a single dataframes from a list of files.
This option is easier because it doesn't require manually mapping colors to 'cat'
Combine DataFrames
# using df_dict, with dataframes as values, from the top
# combine all the dataframes in df_dict to a single dataframe with an identifier column
df = pd.concat((v.assign(dataset=k) for k, v in df_dict.items()), ignore_index=True)
# display(df.head())

Plot a FacetGrid with seaborn.relplot
sns.relplot(kind='scatter', data=df, x='x', y='y', hue='cat', col='dataset', col_wrap=3, height=3)
Both options create the same result, however, it's less complicated to combine all the dataframes, and plot a figure-level plot with sns.relplot.
Building on #joris response above, if you have already established a reference to the subplot, you can use the reference as well. For example,
ax1 = plt.subplot2grid((50,100), (0, 0), colspan=20, rowspan=10)
...
df.plot.barh(ax=ax1, stacked=True)
Here is a working pandas subplot example, where modes is the column names of the dataframe.
dpi=200
figure_size=(20, 10)
fig, ax = plt.subplots(len(modes), 1, sharex="all", sharey="all", dpi=dpi)
for i in range(len(modes)):
ax[i] = pivot_df.loc[:, modes[i]].plot.bar(figsize=(figure_size[0], figure_size[1]*len(modes)),
ax=ax[i], title=modes[i], color=my_colors[i])
ax[i].legend()
fig.suptitle(name)
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
imoprt matplotlib.pyplot as plt
fig, ax = plt.subplots(2,2)
df = pd.DataFrame({'A':np.random.randint(1,100,10),
'B': np.random.randint(100,1000,10),
'C':np.random.randint(100,200,10)})
for ax in ax.flatten():
df.plot(ax =ax)
I am using MatLibPlot to fetch data from an excel file and to create a scatter plot.
Here is a minimal sample table
In my scatter plot, I have two sets of XY values. In both sets, my X values are country population. I have Renewable Energy Consumed as my Y value in one set and Non-Renewable Energy Consumed in the other set.
For each Country, I would like to have a line from the renewable point to the non-renewable point.
My example code is as follows
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
excel_file = 'example_graphs.xlsx'
datasheet = pd.read_excel(excel_file, sheet_name=0, index_col=0)
ax = datasheet.plot.scatter("Xcol","Y1col",c="b",label="set_one")
datasheet.scatter("Xcol","Y2col",c="r",label="set_two", ax=ax)
ax.show()
And it produces the following plot
I would love to be able to draw a line between the two sets of points, preferably a line I can change the thickness and color of.
As commented, you could simply loop over the dataframe and plot a line for each row.
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
datasheet = pd.DataFrame({"Xcol" : [1,2,3],
"Y1col" : [25,50,75],
"Y2col" : [75,50,25]})
ax = datasheet.plot.scatter("Xcol","Y1col",c="b",label="set_one")
datasheet.plot.scatter("Xcol","Y2col",c="r",label="set_two", ax=ax)
for n,row in datasheet.iterrows():
ax.plot([row["Xcol"]]*2,row[["Y1col", "Y2col"]], color="limegreen", lw=3, zorder=0)
plt.show()
